Before you start

Huntbase can sign in to SAP BTP with any of these methods: Username and Password, CIS Service Key, OAuth Client Credentials, Access Token. Pick one, create the credential in SAP BTP, then keep it to hand for the Connect step.

Username and Password

SAP BTP user email and password

1. Make sure your global account admin has entitled a plan of the SAP Cloud Management service (cis) to your subaccount.
2. Create a service instance of the SAP Cloud Management service with the central plan. Without a grantType parameter, it uses the Password grant type.
3. Create a service key for that instance.
4. From the service key, copy uaa.clientid, uaa.url and endpoints.accounts_service_url, and have the email and password of your SAP BTP user ready.

Permissions:

• The central service plan of the SAP Cloud Management service.

OAuth Client Credentials

OAuth 2.0 client ID and client secret (from the CIS service key) used to obtain an access token.

1. Make sure your global account admin has entitled a plan of the SAP Cloud Management service (cis) to your subaccount.
2. Create a service instance of the SAP Cloud Management service with the central plan. Pass the parameter {"grantType": "clientCredentials"} when you create it.
3. Create a service key for that instance.
4. From the service key, copy uaa.clientid, uaa.clientsecret, uaa.url and endpoints.accounts_service_url.

Permissions:

• The central service plan of the SAP Cloud Management service.

Watch out for

• The read-only central-viewer plan supports only the Client Credentials grant type.
• Instances created without {"grantType": "clientCredentials"} issue only Password grant tokens, so the client ID and secret alone won't work.

For the vendor's own instructions, see SAP Cloud Management service access token documentation.

tip

Use a dedicated, read-only credential for Huntbase where the product allows it. Huntbase only needs to read.

Connect SAP BTP

1. Go to Connections and click New connection, or click New connection on the SAP BTP product page.
2. On Product, pick SAP BTP and choose the Owner.
3. On Details, give the connection a Name and, optionally, a Description.
4. On Connect, fill in the settings and credentials described below.
5. On Verify, review the summary and click Create & check.

For everything else on the setup page — saving a draft, I'll do this later, and what each check result means — see Connections.
