We have released new versions of the SAP Cloud SDK. In detail, the following components are now available in new versions:


In this blog post, we will walk you through the highlights of these releases. For a complete overview, visit our release notes for the Java libraries, for the JavaScript libraries, and for the continuous delivery toolkit. The release notes also include the change log of all our releases so far.
At the end of the article, you will find a set of instructions on how to update to the new versions.


Java Libraries: Release Highlights 3.24.0


You can update your dependencies of the SAP Cloud SDK for Java to version 3.24.0 and get the new version from Maven Central.

This is a stability release with several minor improvements.

Review the full release notes for the details.

JavaScript Libraries: Last Releases Highlights


The JavaScript libraries of the SAP Cloud SDK are now available in version 1.24.1.

We added support for all string, number and date related filter functions. Import filterFunctions and use in a filter, e. g. .filter(filterFunctions.startsWith(BusinessPartner.FIRST_NAME).equals(true)).

Our OData v4 support is being extended by many improvements, such as specific parsing of Edm types in the generator. Make sure to always include the latest SAP Cloud SDK version if you already use the experimental features for OData v4.

As usual, the full release notes contain a list of all improvements in this release.

Continuous Delivery Toolkit: Release Highlights v38


We have also released version v38 of our out-of-the-box continuous delivery offering consisting of a ready-made Jenkins server and a complete delivery toolkit.

The pipeline now sets the branchName property in non productive, non PR branches in sonar. This allows usage of sonar in multi-branch setups, as sonar is made aware of which branch a check refers to. Please note that this is not available in all versions of sonar.

You can find further fixes and improvements in the complete release notes.

How to Update


Java libraries


To update the version of the SAP Cloud SDK Java libraries used in an existing project, proceed as follows:

  • Open the pom.xml file in the root folder of your project.

  • Locate the dependency management section and therein the sdk-bom dependency.

  • Update the version of that dependency to 3.24.0.


With this, you are already done thanks to the "bill of material" (BOM) approach. Your dependency should look like this:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sap.cloud.sdk</groupId>
<artifactId>sdk-bom</artifactId>
<version>3.24.0</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<!-- possibly further managed dependencies ... -->
</dependencyManagement>

If you update from a version prior to 3.0.0, have a look at our migration guide.

If you are using the SAP Cloud SDK in a project of the SAP Cloud Application Programming Model, replace sdk-bom with sdk-modules-bom to only update the version of SDK modules, not further dependencies.
You can now recompile your project (be aware of the compatibility notes, though) and leverage the new features of the SAP Cloud SDK in version 3.24.0.

Of course, you can also generate a new project that uses version 3.24.0 from the start by running the Maven archetypes for Neo or Cloud Foundry with -DarchetypeVersion=3.24.0 (or RELEASE).

JavaScript libraries


To update the version of the SAP Cloud SDK JavaScript libraries used in an existing project, use the command npm update in the root folder of your module. Note that this will also update other modules, unless you explicitly specify which packages to update. If you want to check beforehand what will change, use npm outdated.

Continuous Delivery Toolkit


If you are using the pipeline with a fixed version (as recommended since v7), update the continuous delivery toolkit with the following command, that you run on the server hosting the cx-server:
./cx-server update image
