I’d like to ask if anyone has experience connecting AppSheet with SAP, either through connectors, APIs, or any other integration method.
I’m exploring the possibility of setting up a connection between both platforms, and any guidance, documentation, or practical examples would be really helpful — for example, which connector to use, recommended configurations, or any limitations to be aware of.
Thanks in advance for any insights or experiences you can share!
I have not used SAP but have integrated with several external platforms as well as using integrator services such as Make. I think SAP is similar to Make?
Searching their site for “API”, I am find a page with many different types of connection protocols. since AppSheet requires REST based API’s I focused on those.
There are 134 pages of various services to choose from. You‘ll need to identify one you are interested in using and start with that. The API should describe the connection details needed and then it’s just a matter of plugging those details into an automation on the AppSheet side.
You’ll likely have specific questions as you try it out, so come back here with those.
I’ll try exploring the SAP REST APIs as you suggested and see how far I can get with the integration.
As I make progress, I’ll probably come back here with more specific questions.
AppSheet doesn’t have a native SAP connector, so the common approach is to integrate through an intermediate API or database that AppSheet can read from or write to. If your SAP environment exposes OData or REST APIs, you can use an AppSheet webhook or API data source (via an App Script or Cloud Function) to bridge the two. Another option is to replicate SAP data into a supported source like BigQuery, Cloud SQL, or Google Sheets using an ETL tool such as Cloud Data Fusion or SAP Data Services, then connect AppSheet directly. Be mindful of latency and data freshness if you go with a sync-based approach rather than real-time API calls.
