I have been doing a lot of integration at home with Node-Red some of them could be useful in my professional carrier. I work as a SAP consultant. This is more of a thought process at the moment, but I was thinking about using Node-Red as a middleware between SAP and for example Telegram to provide …

This is very interesting. I too want to integrate node-red with SAP but I have no idea how to begin. Partially because I don’t speak IT or SAP. I’ve been shutdown before asking to pull data from SAP. I don’t see why you would need three different instances of node-red running, unless you just wan…

Even in "old" SAP systems you can expose RFC function modules as web services. With that it should be easy communicate using http requests, probably there are separate web service nodes as well, which I have not used before. I was thinking about integrate Telegram chat, but I would also like to use …

Morning Csongor, I managed to survive the SAP hell for more than eight years, before I switched a few months ago to my current Java job. Don't ask me how I have survived it :rofl: Not sure whether you are talking about a smaller SAP Business One solution or a large scale SAP setup (like in the co…

Thanks Bart, Old I mean ECC 6, CRM 7 not HANA. I was thinking about the same lines. I think in our setup there is no XI, but I may be wrong. And of course I don't know about the security landscape, but I was thinking if Node Red is running on the corporate network it should have less problem connec…

And of course the issue around roles and authorisation. How do you link the Telegram accounts to SAP users. And the best would be to consume SAP services with the SAP credentials of the Telegram user.

[image] nygma2004: if Node Red is running on the corporate network it should have less problem connection the SAP servers If I were you, first thing I would do is talk with SAP Basis team about the setup of the environments and firewall rules. Just to make sure you know what is allowed in yo…

I suppose the biggest question is, how do you ask an IT/SAP professional to setup a line of communication so that data can be retrieved from a SAP Production?

You start, as with any other business request, with an outline of a business need. In other words, what will get enhanced into a set of formal requirements if your proposal goes ahead. You should honestly identify costs, timescales and risks along with the business benefits so that your business, r…

Well, in theory you could develop a Node-RED node that uses SAP RFC to communicate to SAP directly. See: https://help.sap.com/doc/PRODUCTION/saphelp_nwpi711/7.1.1/en-US/48/aa34478571356be10000000a421937/frameset.htm for more information on SAP RFC Alternatively you could publish SOAP/XML webservic…
