Provide the login endpoint to initiate communication with the SaaS provider. This is the OData service endpoint to initiate communication with the SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud provider.

The number of milliseconds Integration Cloud waits for a response before canceling its attempt to connect to the back end. In case the network is slow or the back end processing takes longer than usual, increase the Response Timeout value. It is recommended to specify a value other than 0. If you specify 0, Integration Cloud will wait indefinitely for a response.

The number of times Integration Cloud attempts to connect to the back end to read a response if the initial attempt fails. If an I/O error occurs, it will retry only if you have selected the Retry on Response Failure option.

Whether Integration Cloud should attempt to resend the request when the response has failed, even though the request was sent successfully. Select this option if you want to re-establish the connection.

This is the user account name on the SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud provider that the Account will use to connect to the SaaS provider. The Account will use this credential to connect to the SaaS provider.

Provide the password for the user name provided in the Username field to initiate communication with the SaaS provider.

The type of HTTP authorization scheme to use for the connection. If you select none, no additional authorization scheme will be executed at run time. For example, when you specify a Username and Password, and also select none, you do not specify a value for the Authorization Type, so the user credentials are not inserted into an Authorization header. If you enter the Username and Password, then set the authorization type as basic. Basic refers to HTTP Basic Authentication. This option can be used if the Application requires or supports HTTP Basic authentication using a username and password.

Select this option if you want the SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud Application to cache the back end metadata. Caching of the metadata significantly increases the performance of a request sent through SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud. If this option is selected, the cache will be refreshed every 12 hours. It is recommended to enable the metadata cache to increase the performance.

Whether to validate the $metadata xml during edm object creation. Select this option to enable the metadata validation.

To prevent cross site request forgery, SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud protects its resources by using a CSRF token. Select this option if you want Integration Cloud to use the CSRF token key, received in the response from SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud, to perform any state changing requests on SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud. By default, the CSRF token is enabled by the SAP S/4HANA Marketing Cloud back end. You must enable this option particularly when the entity state changing operation is invoked.

Enable this option if you want to send or receive a large binary stream with a chunk size of 8192 bytes. This is applicable only if the back end supports HTTP/1.1 chunking.

Select the alias name of the Integration Cloud trust store configuration. The trust store contains trusted certificates used to determine trust for the remote server peer certificates. You can also add a new Truststore from this field.

Select a hostname verifier implementation. Guards against man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. The default is org.apache.http.conn.ssl.DefaultHostnameVerifier, which will enable hostname verification. Select org.apache.http.conn.ssl.NoopHostnameVerifier to disable hostname verification.

Select the alias for the Integration Cloud key store configuration. This is a text identifier for the keystore alias. A keystore file contains the credentials (private key/signed certificate) that a client needs for authentication. You can also add a new Keystore from this field.

Alias to the private key in the keystore file specified in the Keystore Alias field. The outbound connections use this key to send client credentials to a remote server. To send the client’s identity to a remote server, you must specify values in both the Keystore Alias and the Client Key Alias fields.

Server Name Indication (SNI) is an extension to the TLS protocol by which a client indicates which host name it is attempting to connect to at the start of the handshaking process. Enable this option if the SaaS provider offers SNI-based TLS connectivity, and if you want to connect to an SNI enabled SAAS provider to send the host name specified in the Server URL field, as part of the TLS SNI Extension server_name parameter.

If you want to explicitly specify a host name to be included as a part of the SNI extension server_name parameter, in case the host name is other than the host name specified in the Server URL field, specify the host name value in the SNI Server Name field.
