SAPUI5 Logout of SAP GW using standard service

[Former Member]

HI Friends

I am trying to see if there is any standard GW OData Service to logout the SAPUI5 session and establish the session when we login again?

I have an issue while I am using SAP Portal to launch GW sapui5 application. And as we are still using SAPEP 7.0, I am launching the SAPUI5 app as a new window. When user closes the SAPUI5 tab/window and logout of SAPEP, again login with another user id , the old session is retained in the SAPUI5 app.

I need a way to logout the SAP GW user when SAPEP is loggedout.

refering the old thread but not sure if this works for SAP GW and SAP EP.

all are using the below simple event to clear

 $.ajax({ 
           type: "GET", 
           url: "/sap/public/bc/icf/logoff",  //Clear SSO cookies: SAP Provided service to do that 
        });

Thanks

Hi,

I use below function

$.ajax({

    type: "GET",

    url: "http://<server>:<port>/sap/public/bc/icf/logoff", //Clear SSO cookies: SAP Provided service to do that 

}).done(function(data) { //Now clear the authentication header stored in the browser 

    if (!document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache")) {

        //"ClearAuthenticationCache" will work only for IE. Below code for other browsers 

        $.ajax({

            type: "GET",

            url: "http://<server>:<port>/<serviceURL>", //any URL to a Gateway service 

            username: 'dummy', //dummy credentials: when request fails, will clear the authentication header 

            password: 'dummy',

            statusCode: {

                401: function() {

                    //This empty handler function will prevent authentication pop-up in chrome/firefox 

                }

            },

            error: function() {

                //alert('reached error of wrong username password') 

            }

        });

    }

})

hope this helps

Does this Ajax call method work for the Custom Free style fiori Application which is deployed in the cf with no launchpad, so that the BTP user can login back again into the Deployed HTML5 application?
