Odata sender adapter batch request

[former_member537554]

Hi All,

I want to mimic the oData batch operation from SAP Cloud For Customers oData API on the LeadCollection endpoint to create multipe Lead objects. I created an IFlow with a receiver and configured it to the LeadCollection endpoint utilizing the EDMX from Cloud for Customer. When I send a batch operation with a single change set it is fine. When I send multiple change sets then I receive error below. There is nothing in trace or access logs for this error. . I referenced the github documentation, the markup should be fine.

Please help me out achieving this, I want to use this batch as a base for a custom implementation.

Github developers guide on batch: https://github.com/SAP/C4CODATAAPIDEVGUIDE#batch
ECC related information: https://blogs.sap.com/2017/12/17/implementing-batch-operations-in-odata/

Referenced question: https://answers.sap.com/questions/11969450/odata-sadl-batchrequest-with-multiple-changesets-d.html

Please help me out to get this to work, I want to use it as a base for a custom implementation.

Two change sets request:

--batch_guid_01
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=changeset_guid_01


--changeset_guid_01
Content-Type: application/http
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary


POST LeadCollection HTTP/1.1

}


--changeset_guid_01--

Hi bramkeijers,

Unfortunately, OData Receiver adapter does not support batch operation.

You have to use HTTP Adapter.

Hope this helps,

Bala

P.S.: Your question might have given me another idea for a blog. 😉

Hi Bala,

OData receiver adapter supports batch operation. Blog explaining how batch works in OData Receiver adapter https://blogs.sap.com/2017/05/10/batch-operation-in-odata-v2-adapter-in-sap-cloud-platform-integrati...

Hi saranya.baskaran2,

Yes, you are correct. I was not aware of this functionality.

I think bramkeijers wants Batch operation on Receiver side. If you change your answer above to include Batch operation on both sides, this question can be closed.

Kind regards,

Bala
