TRANSCRIPT

[DJ] The July edition of SAP BTP InnoBytes is out now. If you didn't know already, you should know SAP BTP InnoBytes is a monthly series of videos bringing you snackable, up-to-date information about innovations on SAP BTP. This month we see items on security and identity and also on the SAP Task Center. So first of all the SAP Secure Login Service for SAPGUI has some enhancements allowing you to connect to and use customer managed certificate authorities. There's support already for AWS private CAs with more options in the roadmap. With SAP Cloud Identity Services, there are some enhancements to allow you to define user group assignments at the application level on top of the already existing user profile and tenant balance. And finally, with the SAP Task Center there are some innovations allowing you now to bring in and use task providers from non-SAP and legacy systems, bringing a much asked for unified task view. Find out more about these innovations in the InnoBytes July edition. Link is in the description. And, by the way, it's the end of July, just starting August, which means that the Reverse APIs challenge is now coming to an end. You can still work through the tasks, but we've got an amazing challenge coming up for you for the month of August, and I'm going to hand over to my lovely friend and colleague Shilpa to tell you all about it. Shilpa, over to you.

[Shilpa] Thanks, DJ, in passing the SAP Developer Challenge. I must admit, you kept the SAP Community hungry in releasing eleven tasks in your challenge. Me and Sheena will try to keep up the legacy in making an interesting August Developer Challenge. So with that, hello, everyone. you might have seen the ongoing SAP TechByte series on ABAP Core Data Services. So with that, it's a good idea to have the developer challenge related to ABAP CDS. Watch out for every Wednesday where a new task will be released. There's a prerequisite which will help you to get started with this challenge. Now this blog post gives the information about the challenge, quick links, health document, and the timeline as and when the task is updated. Check out the blog post, make sure to complete the prerequisite, and be ready for the challenge.

[Rich] Hey folks, Rich Heilman here. Have you heard? Registration for SAP TechEd Virtua 2024 is now open, and I'm not the only one that gets excited about this time of year. My best friend Sully also loves TechEd time, and he's gearing up as well. SAP TechEd Virtual 2024 will be packed with a ton of information for architects and developers, ranging from lectures and jumpstart sessions, from voice of the partner sessions to keynotes, and of course your very own developer keynote, which we are changing up a bit this year and having more of a deconstructed approach to the developer keynote. So stay tuned for more details on that. So make sure to sign up for SAP TechEd Virtual which takes place on October 8th and 9th and also stay tuned for more information around the SAP TechEd on tour stops starting in November. And lastly don't forget about Devtoberfest which starts two weeks prior to the start of SAP TechEd Virtual and picks up or picks back up for an additional two weeks after the SAP TechEd virtual event and as always your Developer Advocate team will be playing a huge role in both Devtoberfest and SAP TechEd in general and we are all really excited to see all of you soon bye for now

[Shrini] Hello SAP developers we are happy to announce some major UX announcements on Joule within SAP Build Code. The new design brings a more intuitive user interface which enhances usability and brings in streamlined workflows. Before the update, triggering Joule required navigating through specific entry points like the Guide Center or the Enhance button in the Data Editor. It also meant switching between separate chats for different tasks. With a new design, Joule has a single interface for all functionalities, making it easy to switch between tasks. There are some great new features to make all of this possible. Slash Commands lets you generate a Fiori limits application, get help on SAPUI5 topics, generate a CAP application, add sample data and logic to it. Context variables allows you to use hash symbol in combination with slash commands to reference existing project files. The dynamic suggestion feature shows developers' previous actions automatically. A new file management feature allows you to see which files Joule is using for code generation both during and after the process. A new file list block component allows developers to check the quality of the generated code in the files when multiple files are generated. Custom action buttons allows you to quickly navigate to various interfaces of base code and edit the generated results. If you want to dig deeper into these features, our design lead of SAP Build Code, Ivan, has written this blog post about it. We would love to hear your feedback on these topics.
