Custom Domain for SAP HANA Cloud DB Instance

[zameer0448]

Hi Experts,

We have HANA cloud DB instance. Wanted to know can we setup custom domain URL for HANA cloud instance lengthy URL. I am unable to find any documentation for setting up the custom/friendly URLs for the SAP HANA Cloud instance. We can find the documentation for CPI and for Fiori applications but not for HANA Cloud Instance.

Please share the documentation/blog which explains about setting up the custom domains for SAP HANA Cloud in BTP environment.

The HANA cloud DB instance is in Cloud Foundry Environment/BTP.

Hello Zameer,

To set up custom domains for SAP HANA Cloud in BTP environment, follow the below steps:

1. Log in to the SAP BTP cockpit and navigate to the subaccount where the HANA cloud DB instance is located.

2. In the left-hand menu, click on "Destinations" under "Connectivity" and select "New Destination" button.

3. Enter the following details:

Destination Name: Name to associate with the destination

URL: The URL of database instance e.g. as a string: https://:

Proxy Type: Internet of SAP Cloud Connector

Authentication: Not required as HANA Cloud DB instance can be accessed anonymously

Click on the "Save" button to save the destination.

4. Navigate back to the subaccount and click on the "Security" tile. Select "Trust Configuration" to trust your custom domain.

5. Click on the "New Trust Configuration" button and fill in the below details:

6. Name: Name to associate with this trust configuration.

Trust Type: HTTPS.

Domain Pattern: The custom domain name you want to set up (e.g. db.example.com)

Certificate Provider: Choose from SAP, Let's Encrypt (only allowed for custom domains with public IP), or External

7. Click on the "Save" button to save the trust configuration.

8. Once the trust configuration is saved, navigate to "Destinations" under "Connectivity" menu and click on the destination you created in step 3.

9. Enter the following details:

Destination Name: Name to associate with the destination

URL: The custom domain URL you want to set up (e.g. https://db.example.com)

Hi harish, thanks for sharing the steps. The steps are how to create and use the destination which is pointing to HANA cloud in the applications. This doesn't helps for HANA custom domain url configuration.
