export data from sap bods using api method

[#1]

Hello,

using sap bods 4.3, can we export data to external using using api method. source is from sap bw and the external vendor prefers api method. can you share any documentation or steps needed to perform this data export.

I don’t think SAP BODS directly exposes an API endpoint for exporting data. Usually, BODS is used to extract data from BW, transform it, and then deliver it through methods like files, database tables, or web services. If the vendor requires an API, you may need to create an API layer and have BODS feed that layer. Check the vendor’s required API format first, then choose the best integration approach.
