Supported SAP OData Connector Types
 |
It is required that your SAP server use TLS v1.2. If your SAP server is at TLS v1.0 or TLS v1.1, then you will not be able to use SAP OData connectors. Even though Node.js allows communication using a lower version of TLS, PTC strongly discourages it.
|
Add an SAP OData connector type to authorize ThingWorx Flow to execute SAP OData actions. ThingWorx Flow supports the following connector type for SAP OData:
• Basic
• OAuth
◦ OAuth (Named User)
◦ OAuth (Session User)

Before you create an SAP OData OAuth connector, ensure that you load SAP OData OAuths to the ThingWorx Flow server.
