SAP S/4HANA OData Connector Release Notes - Mule 4

Added support for a configurable cache of metadata for S/4HANA services to improve performance by not executing a metadata request in every operation call.

The service used for requests is now used also for fetching the CSRF token. (SE-21821)

Improved the speed of retrieving metadata by using partial fetching. (SE-21443)

Logging a request body using SAP S/4Hana logger with the TRACE level enabled threw an error. Use HttpMessageLogger instead of SAP S/4Hana logger for logging the payload. (SE-20520)

Improved metadata loading performance (CONN-7658)

Default HTTP headers were not included in a batch request. (SE-18812)

The connector was not returning a complete response. (SE-18902)

Multiple libraries have been updated to the latest versions.

Invalid conversion of the date field in the URI (SE-16674)

Connector was adding two days to the ValidityStartDate field value (SE-16675)

Issues with creating a directory on Anypoint Runtime Fabric runtimes (SE-16669)

Returns HTTP response code and response headers as attributes. (CONN-3789)

Added parameter to enable or disable the discovery service. (CONN-3783)

Create Entity operation failed when non-mandatory key fields weren’t set. (CONN-3911)

NexusIQ security vulnerability for the connector. (CONN-3733)

Removed the default asterisk (*) value for the Select parameter in the Get Entity and Query operations. (CONN-3796)

Added new Expanded properties parameter to support entity expansion in the Get Entity by key and Query operations. This parameter enables you to specify a comma-separated list of navigation properties. Each navigation property can be followed by a forward slash and another navigation property to identify a multi-level relationship. Properties of an expanded navigation property are not a part of the payload unless selected.

New S4HANA:SERVER_ERROR and S4HANA:NO_SUCH_NAVIGATION_PROPERTY errors are provided.

Fixed bugs related to creating and updating sales orders and purchase orders when line items were specified. (CONN-2530)

Date and time formats were not formatted correctly. (CONN-3075)

Connector did not stop the HTTP client when resolving metadata. (CONN-3498)

There was no way to specify an entity key when performing an update operation. (SE-13101)

The Returned Fields parameter description is revised to be: a comma-separated list of selection clauses. Each selection clause may be a property name, navigation property name, or the asterisk * character. The * syntax causes all properties for an entry to be included without traversing associations. Use forward slash / to select fields of expanded navigation properties. If no field is selected, then all fields are returned.
