SAP Work Zone: Fiori app not visible in Content Manager Group

[mitko1994]

Hello,

I'm doing a small PoC on a trial account and I have come across an issue while trying to deploy a Fiori App via BAS to BTP and then expose it to a Work Zone Site.

I have successfully done the following:

1. Create a simple Hello World Fiori app and deployed it to Cloud Foundry

2. Ran the app via the HTML5 Applications tab on BTP Cockpit

3. Assigned the app to the 'Everyone' role in the Content Manager of Work Zone.

4. Created a Group via Content Manager.

PROBLEM: When I try to edit the Group and add the App to it, the App is not visible.

See attached screenshots.

Can someone please shed some light on what could be causing the issue?

Is it solved in the meanwhile? If not, can you check the tile configuration in the manifest.json of your app. Is it configured? It could be that it is not configured and because of that not shown.

Check the documentation for tile visualisation here: https://help.sap.com/docs/build-work-zone-standard-edition/sap-build-work-zone-standard-edition/expo...

Hi Wouter, adding the navigation intent in the manifest.json is indeed missing, when generating a Fiori Elements Application based on a ABAP provided OData Service. Thanks for providing the link!

Thanks @WouterLemaire, i had the same issue, and checking the link i could see that => semanticObject and action Mandatory

Thanks @WouterLemaire, i had the same issue, and checking the link i could see that => semanticObject and action Mandatory, so i added Lauchpad Configuration on business app studio, deployed again the app and now works

Any luck in the meantime? If it is still not working , can you try deleting workzone and start over ? I guess is wrong with your instance.

Hi Wouter. Thanks for your reply. I still haven't had the chance to test it, but I think you may be right.

Hello Mitko,

Had the same problem some time ago. You have to remove this deployed app and deploy it again to cloud foundry.
You can remove it using CLI - described here delete - Cloud Foundry CLI Reference Guide

Hi. Thanks for your comment. When I run "cf apps" I get "no apps found" although I was able to deploy other List Report apps successfully.

Hi Mitko,

Once you deploy the app to BTP from BAS, you need to do the following:

1. You need to add tile visualization through code. IF you dont do this, the app won't show up. I have faced this issue with Spaces and pages and the below worked. So it should also work for Groups. (However, you might want to consider spaces and pages instead of groups as SAP is moving towards spaces and pages and its more flexible too.)

2. Go to Content Channels and refresh the HTML5 Apps

3. Go to the Content Manager -> Content Explorer -> HTML5 App and add the app to your sub account

Once you do the above, the app should be visible in Groups.

Hi Julius. I have already taken these steps without success.
