Greetings!!
What development opportunities exist with SAP Build, outside the client environment, that is, if you do not currently work with anyone who wants to adapt these technologies, how can you get involved in it?

Hi, are there offline capabilities (even in pipeline)?

Hi Dan/Mari,
Thanks for this insight session. It was great!
I need some insights and your expertise to understand "how can I actually upload files on Build app and push it to my On-premise syystem" given my SAP S4 HANA OP system is connected to my BTP trial account via Cloud Connector already. I have also installed Functions like "Pick Files" , "UploadFiles" from Marketplace BuildApps but not sure how to link everything to get this done.
I will be thankful if you can provide some help. Thanks in advance!!!

I will let @marihirvi4 answer more fully bu you can check out this tutorial about offline storage by @merituulimelkko75 -- https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/build-apps-offline-storage..html and I am told that additional capabilities from Mobile Services will be added to SAP Build Apps, including offline capabilities, but best that Mari address this.

Do you mean to upload Excel to backend entities, or upload images or what? There are ways to do most of that now.

Are you using DMS or Attachment service with your S/4HANA system? What is the method to upload files to S/4HANA, regardless of the frontend?

Thanks for your question. I'm not sure I fully understand what you are asking. Which technologies are you referring to? How do you want to get involved?

You can always start with a BTP trial system, https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/hcp-create-trial-account.html, and then install SAP Build Apps, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpQM2B1v2GY

We are actively exploring how to improve the file upload capabilities by supporting multipart/form-data requests to SAP Document Management service for example, but file upload to the Build Apps backends is not planned for the foreseeable future.

The capabilities described in the tutorial are the primary way to do offline storage in SAP Build Apps. The integration to SAP Mobile Services offline capabilities will be the next step for this topic but it is not yet on the roadmap.
