How to download/extract custom Fiori app source code from ECC

[amar786]

Hi folks, 

I'm trying to download/extract the source code of some custom Fiori apps that have been deployed to our ECC system. These were developed and deployed around 9 years ago and the consultant that developed is long gone. The reason I want to get the project folders is so that I can upload them into BAS if I need to make changes but also have them in case we want to use it for our S4 migration happening soon. I can see the applications in SE80 but there's no to download them from SE80 as a BSP application. Any advice, tips, or suggestion I would very much appreciate. Please ask me anything if you want clarity as well.

And you don't have a Git repository for the app?

Sorry but yeah, I get the same type of error "Program /UI5/UI5_REPOSITORY does not exist". I've tried this from our backend and Fiori front end systems.

Sorry for the confusion (My IQ really showed here), but thanks that helped!

Besides the Tcode /UI5/UI5_REPOSITORY_LOAD
You can also use ABAPGit:
If you have ABAPGit installed, you can use it to export the source code to a Git repository
Hope this helps
Cheers!
