SAP S/4HANA OData Connector 2.4 - XML and Maven Support

Although you can manually code a Mule app in XML, it is more efficient to use Anypoint Studio.

If you manually code a Mule runtime engine (Mule) app in XML either from the Anypoint Studio XML editor or from a text editor, you can get access to the connector in your app by adding reference statements to both your XML Mule flow and the Apache Maven pom.xml file.

When you install the connector in Studio, Studio automatically populates the XML code with the connector’s namespace and schema location. It also adds a dependency to the pom.xml file.

Add a Reference Namespace Statement for the Connector

Paste the following code inside the mule tag of the header of your configuration XML:

http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/s4hana
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/s4hana/current/mule-s4hana.xsd

This example shows how the namespace statements are placed in the XML:

<mule xmlns:ee="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ee/core"
xmlns:s4hana="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/s4hana"
xmlns:http="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/http"
xmlns="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core"
xmlns:doc="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/documentation"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core/current/mule.xsd
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/http
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/http/current/mule-http.xsd
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/s4hana
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/s4hana/current/mule-s4hana.xsd
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ee/core
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ee/core/current/mule-ee.xsd">

Add a POM File Dependency

The Apache Maven pom.xml file generated by Anypoint Studio contains Mule app connector dependencies. When you code a Mule app manually, include this XML snippet in your POM file to enable access to this connector:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.mulesoft.connectors</groupId>
  <artifactId>mule-sap-s4hana-cloud-connector</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <classifier>mule-plugin</classifier>
</dependency>

Verify that the connector version corresponds to the one you are using.

To obtain the most up-to-date pom.xml file information:

Go to Anypoint Exchange.
In Exchange, click Login and supply your Anypoint Platform username and password.
In Exchange, search for SAP S/4HANA OData.
Click Dependency Snippets.
