Getting 404 Error while consuming REST API in BAS SAPUI5 Project

[Ivan-Mirisola]

Hi Experts,

We have a requirement to consume a REST API in an SAPUI5 application developed in SAP Business Application Studio (BAS). I am able to consume ODATA service but for a REST API getting HTTP 404 error code, can you all please look at below scenario and help if I am missing out something. This is now on high priority any sort of help would be much appreciated.

Please note below:

I have create a FIORI app in SAP BAS having Target Runtime as Cloud Foundry and Using MANAGED APPROUTER, app id in manifest is ns.zzidexx2

Create a destination name "jsonplaceholder" in subaccount

Modified xs-app.json to include a route for redirection of API calls to destination

calling the REST API in view controller along with destination name

Tested the destination "jsonplaceholder" from BAS, it is working fine

-Regards,

Hi rauf.shaikh,

Have you defined the destination at the instance level or at the account level? How is your MTA configured in terms of the destination service that is bound to your application?

Best regards,
Ivan

Hi Rauf,

Does the endpoint return successfully in tools like Postman? As mentioned by other users, it doesn't seem to be an issue related to your destination or xs-app.json, so i would suggest cross-checking the API outside of BAS first if you haven't done so yet.
