Is there a solution to deploy SAP Mobile apps for Android without local SAP HAT installation?

1.1k Views Asked by At

I am asking me if there is a way to deploy SAP hybrid apps (programmed in WEB IDE) for Android / iOS without having a "local" HAT connector installed?

My intention is that with all this cloud services it should be possible to consume a "build for Android" service in the cloud instead of installing the build stuff on a local developer machine.

Yes, this has been implemented end of last year. The prerequisites are as follows:

  1. Subscribe to Portal service
  2. Subscribe to Fiori Mobile service
  3. Create a "default" launchpad in Portal service
  4. Enable the Hybrid App Toolkit plugin in the WebIDE

Now when you create new apps in the WebIDE, on the first page there is a "mobile" checkbox that you need to select. If you have done this, you can trigger a cloud build via the "Fiori Mobile" context menu that you get when you right-click your project. You can find a more elaborate guide here.
