Google URL Shortener API

[Former Member]

Hi All,

This document will guide you how to use google URL hortener API in SAP.

1. Get the API key.

• Goto console.developers.google.com
• Click the URL Shortener API link.

    

• Create a project (skip if you already have)

    

• Create API Key (This server key will be used while consumption of service)

    

          [Now you have the API key say: AIzaSyB_UdivSkXmuV85ytAZ59FWkXFF6uaaS2V]

• URL to consume: https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url?key=<API key>

2. Now we need to add Certificate in SAP as SAP assumes response is from non-trusted site.

• Get the *.cer file for above URL.
  • Open the URL in Google chrome and click the lock image.

           

• Click the certificate Information link

              

• In the popup goto Details tab and click on 'copy to file' button.

              

• Specify file format and file name in the appeared wizard and generate *.cer file.

              

• Now you have Google API certificate file (say : GoogleUrlShortener.cer)

• Add the certificate to trusted list in SAP.
  • Goto tcode: STRUST
  • Choose SSL client SSL Client (Anonymo->Import certificate → Select *.cer file and click (OK)

         

• Now click Add to Certificate List          

         

               [Here Certificate has been added in SSL Client Anonymo whose SSL id is ANONYM ]

         

• Goto tcode: SMICM to restart ICM process.

     

3.  Use Session ID: ANONYM while creating object of if_http_client.
