Background

SAC has delivered multi-actions public APIs in release 2023.15. The APIs can be used to
trigger multi-actions execution and query the execution results afterwards. With this it
offers a flexible way to integrate SAC workflows into external applications to realize
various bussiness scenarios.

1/28/24, 11:43 AM Introduction of SAC Multi-actions Public API - SAP Community

The APIs have been published to SAP Business Accelerator Hub:

https://api.sap.com/api/MultiActions_API/overview. The introduction of APIs can also be
found in SAC help:
https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_ANALYTICS_CLOUD/14cac91febef464dbb1efce20e3f16
13/e5ade1ed7c274d929a18b...

This blog is supposed to highlight the essential preparations, and to provide some typical
samples to try out the APIs meanwhile you can find more details of the API definitions in
above pages.

Preparation

Authentication & Authorization

Multi-actions Public API is supposed to be conducted under business user context. The
API user need to configure the authentication & authorization properly to specify the
desired business user in SAC. Generally there're 2 major options to configure the
authentication and authorization. (Please notice that auth type "client credentials" is
not supported in multi-actions public APIs, since multi-actions cannot be
conducted under technical user context for the time being.)

OAuth2 Authorization Code Workflow

See
https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_ANALYTICS_CLOUD/14cac91febef464dbb1efce20e3f16
13/0c1fb5e6ef1f46acb8377..., the part Configuring OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code Grant
Workflow (3-legged OAuth) illustrates how to authenticate and authorize the user
following OAuth2 Authorization Code flow in SAC. (As multi-actions API is supposed to
be conducted under business user context, select "Interactive Usage" as the "Purpose" of
the OAuth client)

OAuth2 SAML Bearer Assersion Workflow

Besides the authorization code solution, you can leverage the OAuth2 SAML Bearer
Assersion workflow to authenticate and authorize if you have a trusted IdP added to
SAC. One of the restrictions of applying the authorization code workflow is that it
generally requires the end-user to input the credentials to logon SAC explicitly thus to get
the authorization code and continue the authentication. Considering the scenario that the
consumption of multi-actions public API is embedded in a fully automated process with
no user interference possible, you may consider the OAuth2 SAML Bearer Assersion
workflow as an alternative solution as well.

You can use the SAML Bearer Token issued by your IdP to fetch the access token. The
article https://blogs.sap.com/2021/04/09/sap-analytics-cloud-app-integration-with-
oauth2samlbearerassertion-... has introduced the OAuth2SAMLBearerAssertion flows
that can be applied in SAC app integration and has provided some comprehensive
examples on how to apply the flow with and without SAP BTP Destination service
involved.

Fetch CSRF token

Before sending HTTP requests with POST method (used in multi-action triggering API),
you need to fetch a valid CSRF token first.

You can get a token by sending a GET request to {tenant-url}/api/v1/csrf, including the
header x-csrf-token: fetch . The csrf token is then returned in the x-csrf-token response
header.

Once you get the token, you can use it to send POST request in the same session (Keep
the JSESSIONID in the cookie as same with the CSRF request). The x-csrf-token:{token}
header must be included in the request.

API definitions

Please refer to SAC help:

https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_ANALYTICS_CLOUD/14cac91febef464dbb1efce20e3f16
13/e5ade1ed7c274d929a18b... for details of the API definitions and we won't repeat it in
this article.

Samples

Try out the APIs using some common http clients

Note

In the following sample we’d use Postman to try out the APIs as it offers friendly user
interface and easy configuration to facilitate the OAuth2 authorization code flow. You can
also try out the APIs with other typical http clients (e.g. curl:
https://curl.se/docs/manual.html, swagger-ui: https://swagger.io/tools/swagger-ui/ and
etc.) , as long as the they have already embedded related authentication/authorization
flow or you can aslo fetch the access token with customzed solution following either
authorization code flow or SAML bearer assersion flow and send the token using the
authorization header.

(To consume the API in swagger-ui, you can download the API specification from
https://api.sap.com/api/MultiActions_API/overview as a reference)

OAuth2 Authorization Code Flow

1.

https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-blogs-by-sap/introduction-of-sac-multi-actions-public-api/ba-p/13577173 4/33
1/28/24, 11:43 AM Introduction of SAC Multi-actions Public API - SAP Community

Create an OAuth Client in SAC, set the purpose as "Interactive Usage", and the
callback url: https://www.getpostman.com/oauth2/callback which is required by
postman.

2.

Go to the "Authorization" tab of your request collection in Postman, define the

"configure new token" section as:

https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-blogs-by-sap/introduction-of-sac-multi-actions-public-api/ba-p/13577173 5/33
1/28/24, 11:43 AM Introduction of SAC Multi-actions Public API - SAP Community

3.

After configuration is done, click on "Get new access token" in the bottom of
"Authorization" tab in postman. After logging on SAC in the pop-up windown, the
access token should be fetched.

1/28/24, 11:43 AM Introduction of SAC Multi-actions Public API - SAP Community

4.

Then the access token can be used to access the multi-actions public APIs.
Meanwhile csrf token is required to access the API with POST method. Use the
following request to get the csrf token first.

And you will get the csrf token in the headers of response:

5.

Use the csrf token in the following POST request to execute multi-actions. The csrf
token is only valid in the same session, thus make sure the following request use
the same cookie (this is usually taken care by Postman by default and you don't

need to set the cookie explicitly in the following requests in general cases )

6.

Use the query status API to get the status of multi-actions exeuction.

OAuth2 SAML Bearer Assersion Flow

The only difference to try out the APIs using the OAuth2 SAML bearer assersion flow
compared to the above authorization code flow lies in the way to get the access token,
and for other part they should be the same. https://blogs.sap.com/2021/04/09/sap-
analytics-cloud-app-integration-with-oauth2samlbearerassertion-... has provided samples
to fetch the access token with and without BTP desitination service. E.g. You can refer to
https://blogs.sap.com/2021/04/08/how-to-generate-saml-bearer-assertion-token-for-
oauth2samlbearerass... to create a nodejs program to get an access token following the
OAuth2 SAML Bearer Assertion flow if you do not have BTP destination at hand. If you
are able to use BTP destination in your solution, it can be even easier and
https://blogs.sap.com/2021/03/24/oauth2samlbearerassertion-flow-with-the-sap-btp-
destination-service... illustrates how to leverage BTP destination to access SAC with
OAuth2 SAML Bearer Assertion flow.

Then start from step 4 in previous authorization code flow sample to use the access
token to access the APIs and the following steps should be the same.

Call APIs from ABAP/NetWeaver stack

Multi-actions public APIs can be consumed from ABAP/NetWeaver stack thus it can be
feasible to integrate it with products like: BW, BPC and etc. as long as they provide
customized ABAP exits. In following example, we will leverage BTP destination service
(as an identiy provider, it can be replaced with other service serving as role of IdP) to
realize OAuth2 SAML Beaerer Assertion Flow, thus the mutli-actions APIs can be called
from ABAP program with no user interference and it can be embedded in automated jobs
on ABAP/NetWeaver side.

Please also note that the process illustrated below are quite common and you may also

replace the ABAP stack with other programing environment by leveraging corresponding
http clients provided by the selected technology.

The procedure to realize the workflow is illustrated as following steps:

The article https://blogs.sap.com/2021/03/24/oauth2samlbearerassertion-flow-with-the-

sap-btp-destination-service... provides comprehensive explaination on how to realize the
OAuth2 SAML Bearer authentication in SAC leveraging the BTP desitination service as an
IdP (https://help.sap.com/docs/connectivity/sap-btp-connectivity-cf/consuming-
destination-service). In the context of current scenario, here are some key steps to set up
the destination and destination service in BTP:

create a destination in BTP sub account

Create a destination under BTP subaccount, with authentication type:

OAuth2SAMLBeaererAssertion. Refer to below snapshot for fields mapping:

Download the IDP metadata, note down the entityID which will be used when adding
trust IdP in SAC.

1/28/24, 11:43 AM Introduction of SAC Multi-actions Public API - SAP Community

SAP Build Process Automation (will use "BTP PA" to indicate the platform in the following
descriptions) is a low-code platform available on BTP which can be used to build
workflow across SAP/non-SAP applications. (https://www.sap.com/products/technology-
platform/process-automation/features.html) We can also embed multi-actions API in the
process of BTP PA to achieve corresponding business needs. Here are some key steps of
configuration:

Subscribe a plan of SAP Build Process Automation under BTP

sub-account

security configuration

Create an OAuth Client in SAC like what's mentioned in above ABAP/Netweaver section.

Create a destination in BTP with OAuth2SAMLBearerAssertion authentication type, like

what's what's mentioned in above ABAP/Netweaver section as well, meanwhile there are
some differences to be noticed:

In URL, add the suffix "api/v1" to sac tenant url, such as: https://{tenant url}/api/v1

In additional properties, add

sap.applicationdevelopment.actions.enabled = true

sap.processautomation.enabled = true

SystemUser is not necessary as you can config use the user who start the
BTP PA process as the user to trigger multi-actions

Add the BTP destination as trusted IdP in SAC, similar procedure has also been
introduced in the above "ABAP/Netweaver" section.

Configuration in BTP PA

Open BTP PA, go to the "settings" tab and add your destination configured in above
steps.

Create a multi-actions API action

Go to the "lobby" tab, click "create" button and select to "build an automated process",
and then select "actions".

Click "upload API specification" and upload the multiActions API specification

You can download the API specification from

https://api.sap.com/api/MultiActions_API/overview. As our destination URL is
defined as https://{tenant url}/api/v1 rather than https://{tenant
url}/api/v1/multiActions which is defined in API specification (since BTP PA requires
the csrf token url configured under the same destination url prefix), let's manually
update the path name in the API specification to add the prefix "/multiActions".

Enable csrf setting for the action both in the action setting and the post request:
