Since any project that is created initially in the SAP Web IDE contains a neo-app.json
file, it is ready to be deployed to SAP Cloud Platform. During the deployment process, Web IDE creates the HTML5 application in SAP Cloud Platform and also the related Git repository (which will track code changes) for your app automatically.
Step 1: Open the SAP Web ID
Open the SAP Web IDE. In SAP Web IDE, select the northwind project folder and open the context menu by right-clicking on it. Choose Deploy > Deploy to SAP Cloud Platform.
Step 2: Enter credentials and log in
If this is your first time deploying an app to the SAP Cloud Platform, you may see a dialog box requesting information to configure your Git repository. Enter your email and username and click OK.
You will be prompted for your SAP Cloud Platform Password and click on Login.
Step 3: Deploy the app
Because all HTML application names on SAP Cloud Platform are lower case, the application name will be converted (if required) to lower-case letters. Check the Connect to the SAP Cloud Platform Git repository… checkbox, verify the version number is 1.0.0 and the Activate check box is marked. Click on Deploy.
Step 4: Wait for success message
The deployment process will take a few seconds, and after it has finished, you will see a success message.
Step 5: View your running app
Click on Open the active version of the application link to see your app running on SAP Cloud Platform. Your app should look like this:
Step 6: View app in browser
You can now enter the application URL in your mobile device browser to see it running there.
