In this blog I will discuss about SAP OData Gateway.

If you are not aware what is SAP OData, you can read my blog.

The ODATA Service can be freely utilized without the need for a license or contract. Furthermore, it offers extensibility by enabling the integration of data types from the ABAP Dictionary.

Transaction code for gateway service: SEGW

Developing a service in SAP follows several distinct steps, and this service is subsequently used for generating ODATA.

Entity Types:

It refer to the data structures defined in the OData service.

Properties and Navigation Properties comes under this only, that hold name of columns or fields and the connection respectively.

Entity Sets:

Entity Sets in Fiori are groups of entity type instances from the OData service. They contain real data instances that Fiori apps can query, create, update, or delete. Entity sets give Fiori applications access to specific data collections provided by the OData service, enabling efficient interaction and management of these datasets.

Navigation:

It navigates from moving between screens or views using menus, buttons, or links within the app

Association:

It define how data entities or objects relate to each other, enabling organized data handling and interaction.

In the next blog, I will discuss more on gateway service.
