SAP Analytics Cloud - API Access documentation

[mateusz_mikulski]

Hi,

I am trying to find a documentation for SAC API access (for new OAuth Client). There are 6 different accesses and I am able to find only short description for two of them (in this help page).

Story Listing: This OAuth client privilege allows a third-party application to access a list of stories in your system.

User Provisioning: This OAuth client privilege allows a third-party application to manage users in your system.

What's about the rest (screen below)? Any chance to find an official documentation from SAP (or I need to paid for that :)) ?

Hi Mateusz!

I agree, this is not clear. I've tried to find help. Catch the link: https://help.sap.com/viewer/product/SAP_ANALYTICS_CLOUD/release/en-US?q=API

My suggetions:

1. Analytics Content - SAP Analytics Cloud Content Network REST API Developer Guide
2. Modelling - Using Version Management APIs on Data Models for SAP Analytics Cloud
3. Resource permissions - /Resources goes to SAP Analytics Cloud Tenant API (section Resources)
   
4. Story listing - api/v1/stories
5. Translation service - I haven't find an API specification but there is a Translation capabilities and Multilingual Support. May it will be posted after Q3 relese is alive (planned at the end of August)?
6. User provision - SAP Analytics Cloud User and Team Provisioning API

Hi Alexey and Mateusz,

Great findings, thanks for sharing!

I don't think #2 Modelling - Using Version Management APIs on Data Models for SAP Analytics Cloud is for OAuth usage. Any API related to Analytics Applications / Analytics Designer Scripting is not for OAuth (third party access); that my understanding!

Tuncay

Thanks Alexey!

For sure I will review your links, and many thanks for gathering them!

Nevertheless, it is not professional from SAP side to just not document part of the software (especially as this is quite expensive). I hope working on proper documentation is somewhere in SAC roadmap and there is internal JIRA ticket in progress now...

Best Regards,

Mateusz
