Hi SAP Builders!
In this blog post, I'll showcase how you can add your deployed SAP Build Apps application to Fiori Launchpad (ABAP Platform).
NOTE: If a new version of the application is deployed to CF the URL would change, so we need to check for it again here to adjust any bookmark reference to your application. Only then we can continue to access the application without any issues.
If the URL is from an earlier deployment then the application will no longer be available for access.
We have now successfully configured the Application in design time via App Manager.
Before testing this app at runtime let us also see how to configure the SAP Build Apps in the FLP ABAP design time via FLPD.
NOTE: As we still use the Groups concept for the Classic FLP, FLPD usage is demonstrated here only for the sake of completeness. Again here, it would good to take a note that the Classic FLP would be deprecated soon for S/4 HANA Cloud Public Edition (SAP Note 2970113 ).
Disclaimer: It is highly recommended to use App Manager for FLP ABAP design time (SAP Note 3170196).
SAP Build Apps application can be configured in the design time via Fiori Launchpad Designer (FLPD) as illustrated below:

For cloud case, please refer to the blog How to create Custom Tiles for external applications in SAP S/4HANA Cloud.
Below are few guiding screen shots for additional reference!
When we configure our SAP Build Apps application as a URL application and launch it at runtime, we will be prompted to login. This is expected behavior as the SAP Build Apps service is running in BTP and this is essential for metering.
If this is not desired, then configure the Default IDP for your organization to enable Single Sign On (SSO) login automatically.
With this, I hope that you could also bookmark your deployed SAP Build Apps application to SAP Fiori Launchpad and use it successfully.
Disclaimer: Bookmarking is a work around approach to use the SAP Build Apps application and may not function optimally at all times. Yet we are sharing this 'Know-how' as integrating SAP Build Apps in SAP Fiori Launchpad is a desired use case.
Happy Building!
