Field | Description |
Server URL | Provide the login endpoint to initiate communication with the SaaS provider. This is the OData service endpoint to initiate communication with the SAP C4C OData provider. |
Response Timeout | 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. |
Retry Count on Response Failure | 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. |
Retry on Response Failure | 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. |
Username | This is the user account name on the SAP C4C OData provider that the Account will use to connect to the SaaS provider. The Account will use this credential to connect to the SaaS provider. |
Password | Provide the password for the user name provided in the Username field to initiate communication with the SaaS provider. |
Authorization Type | 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. |
Metadata Caching | Select this option if you want the SAP C4C Application to cache the backend metadata. Caching of the metadata significantly increases the performance of a request sent through SAP C4C. 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. |
Use CSRF Token | To prevent cross site request forgery, SAP C4C 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 C4C, to perform any state changing requests on SAP C4C. By default, the CSRF token is enabled by the SAP C4C back end. You must enable this option particularly when the entity state changing operation is invoked. |
