C_CPI_15 Sample Questions Answers

An API proxy is an API that acts as a proxy for another API, which is usually the backend service that provides the actual functionality. An API proxy can be used to add security, monitoring, caching, transformation, and other features to the backend API. An API provider is a logical grouping of APIs that share a common connection to the backend service. An API provider can be used to discover and import APIs from the backend service into the API Management capability within SAP Integration Suite. The relationship between an API provider and an API proxy is that the API proxy uses the API provider as a source of information and configuration for accessing the backend service. The API proxy also provides a unique URL that can be used by clients to invoke the API without exposing the details of the backend service. References: SAP Integration Suite | SAP Community, Create an API Proxy | SAP Tutorials

The condition ProductSet/count(Product)>0 checks if the number of Product elements in the ProductSet element is greater than zero, which means that a child element “Product” exists. This condition can be used to dispatch messages only when a Product element is present. References: SAP Integration Suite | SAP Community, Integration Software | SAP Integration Suite

You can configure a static payload in a Data Store Operation component or in a Content Modifier component of the Message Body tab. A Data Store Operation component allows you to store or retrieve messages in a data store. You can use the Write operation to store a static payload in a data store entry with a specified key. A Content Modifier component allows you to modify the message content, headers, and properties. You can use the Message Body tab to define a static payload for the message. References:  Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

The API Management capability within SAP Integration Suite supports the following message protocols: SOAP, REST, and Data. SOAP is a protocol for exchanging structured XML messages between web services. REST is an architectural style for designing web services that use HTTP methods and formats. Data is a protocol for sending and receiving binary or text data over HTTP or HTTPS. References: Integration Software | SAP Integration Suite, Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

To avoid duplicate entries when using a Data Store Operation of the type Write, you must select the Overwrite Existing Message parameter. The Overwrite Existing Message parameter allows you to overwrite an existing data store entry with the same key if it already exists. If you do not select this parameter, the Write operation will fail if there is a duplicate key in the data store. References:  Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

 In the Cloud Integration capability within SAP Integration Suite, XML is the internal message format that is used. XML stands for Extensible Markup Language and is a standard format for representing structured data. All messages that are processed by the Cloud Integration capability are converted to XML internally and then transformed to the desired format at the outbound channel. References:   Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

The API Management capability of the SAP Integration Suite requires API providers to incorporate APIs from source systems. An API provider is a system or application that exposes the interface and functionality of an API. The API Management capability allows you to connect to different types of API providers, such as OData, SOAP, REST, or RFC, and manage their lifecycle, security, and consumption. References: Integration Software | SAP Integration Suite, Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

To use an API key for authentication in an HTTPS API call, you must include the API key in the message header of the content modifier step. The message header contains information related to the message, such as addressing, routing, or metadata. You can use the content modifier step to create or modify message headers using expressions or constants. The API key is typically passed as a value of a specific header field, such as Authorization or X-API-Key, depending on the API provider’s requirements. You can use the Camel Simple Expression Language to access or construct the API key value from variables, properties, or system information. References: Content Modifier | SAP Help Portal, Using Camel Simple Expression Language | SAP Help Portal

The http response code that indicates success is 200. The 200 response code means that the request was successfully processed and the response contains the expected data. Other response codes in the 2xx range also indicate success, but with some variations. For example, 201 means that a resource was created, 202 means that a request was accepted but not completed yet, and 204 means that there is no content in the response. References: Integration Software | SAP Integration Suite, Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

To examine the payload at specific processing steps in an integration flow, you must use the Trace log level. The Trace log level provides the most detailed information about the message processing, including the payload content and the headers at each step. You can use the Message Processing Log to view the trace logs for a specific message. References:  Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

The Groovy SDK scripting can be used to set up Exchange Properties in an integration flow. The Groovy SDK scripting allows you to access and manipulate message headers, properties, and payloads using Groovy scripts. You can use the setProperty method to set an Exchange Property with a name and a value. References:   Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

The following capabilities within SAP Integration Suite are core for integration: Integration Assessment, Cloud Integration, and API Management. Integration Assessment allows you to evaluate your integration landscape and strategy and identify the best-fit integration technologies and tools for your scenarios. Cloud Integration allows you to design, deploy, and monitor integration flows between cloud and on-premise systems using various adapters and protocols. API Management allows you to create, publish, secure, and monitor APIs across different environments and platforms. References: Integration Software | SAP Integration Suite, Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

To access the payload in a Groovy script, you must use the message object and call the getBody() method on it. The message object represents the current message that is being processed in the integration flow. It has methods to get and set the message body, headers, properties, and attachments. The getBody() method returns the message body as an object of the specified type, such as java.lang.String, java.io.InputStream, or org.w3c.dom.Document. References: General Scripting Guidelines | SAP Help Portal, Message | SAP Help Portal

Representational State Transfer (REST) is an architectural style for designing web services that are based on the stateless exchange of resources. REST uses uniform and predefined methods, such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE, to manipulate resources identified by URIs. REST also supports different formats for data representation, such as XML, JSON, or plain text. References: Integration Software | SAP Integration Suite, Modernize Integration with SAP Integration Suite | openSAP

To test a connection to a backend system that is provided by a Cloud Connector, you must specify the location ID as a parameter for the connection test. The location ID is a unique identifier that represents a Cloud Connector instance in a specific network location. It is used to route requests from SAP Integration Suite to the correct Cloud Connector instance and then to the backend system. You can find the location ID in the Cloud Connector administration UI under Configuration Location ID. References: Cloud Connector Connectivity Tests | SAP Help Portal, Cloud Connector Configuration | SAP Help Portal
