Prerequisites

Please contact your SAP Fieldglass representative to obtain an Environment URL, OAuth Client Id, and OAuth Client Secret.

Setup Guide

Follow these steps to connect SAP Fieldglass to your CData Connect Cloud account:

  1. Open the Connections page of the CData Connect Cloud dashboard.

  2. Click + Add Connection in the upper-right corner.

  3. Type SAP Fieldglass into the search field, then click the data source name.

  4. On the Basic Settings tab of the new connection, enter a connection name or keep the default name.

  5. Enter the following information:

    • Environment URL–the instance where SAP Fieldglass is located, for example, https://myinstance.com.

    • OAuth Client Id–the client Id assigned to your custom OAuth application.

    • OAuth Client Secret–the confidential client secret assigned to your custom OAuth Application.

    • Connector Data Format–the data format for downloaded data: CSV or JSON.

    • APIKey–(optional) the API key used to authenticate to SAP Fieldglass. If you encounter an error indicating that an API key is required, you can request one from SAP Fieldglass administration or log in to the SAP Fieldglass Integration Tools and click Create API Application.

  6. At the top of the CData Connect Cloud Add SAP Fieldglass Connection page, click Save & Test.

    • If the connection test succeeds, a Connection successfully saved message appears, indicating that your connection has been created. The Status on the Edit Connection page also changes to Authenticated. View the data model of your successful connection in the right pane of the Edit Connection page, in the Data Model tab.

    • If the connection test fails, ensure that you entered your login information correctly with no stray spaces or other characters. CData Connect Cloud displays error messages under the required fields with missing data. Some data sources require that you sign in directly to the source website. If you did not, an error message appears under the Sign in button. Correct the errors and try again.

    • Unsuccessful connections are saved as drafts and have a Status of Not Authenticated. You can return to the connection and authenticate it later.
