Single Sign-On for SAPUI5 app: how to set up?

I have a SAP sso2 service enabled in the company, how would I enable single sign-on in code? What do I need to insert to my code and possibly where?

When I log in to portal, single sign-on feature works, as I am not asked for password every time. I would like to have the same thing for my SAPUI5 application.

Can I possibly use cookies? If yes, how?

Solution

  • Yes, you can have the same thing for your SAPUI5 application. You don't need to code anything. SSO for ABAP is standard configuration. You can use any of these:

    • SPNego for ABAP (included in SAP Single Sign-On 2.0)
    • SAML to Active Directory (assuming your users are there and that's why you have SSO to Portal)

    When your company has implemented SSO for Portal, they should of course do the same for SAP GUI and ABAP HTTP. :-)

    Note that there is a licensing cost for SAP Single Sign-On 2.0.
