Integrate BI queries in WD ABAP

[Former Member]

Hi Experts

Can somebody guide me as in how can we integrate BI queries in WD ABAP.

Will we be using BI application frame UI or is there any other approach?

Thanks

The BIApplicationFrame is useful for Bex Web Application Designer created queries:

For other types of BI Queries, you should consider the use of the iFrame (in standalone WDA applications) or a separate iView if running in the Portal or NWBC.

Hi Thomas

Thanks for replying , IFrame UI is deprecated and not to be used as mentioned in help.sap.com.

Anyways dont you think going with Visual Composer would be a good approach then??

Thanks

Actually we have made a recent decision within SAP to un-depricate the iFrame. The help documentation will be updated when the 7.02 version is released. The limitaitons of the iFrame remain very much the same, but we simply aren't going to remove the UI element in the future any longer. It is safe to use within the documented limtations and use cases.

Going with Visual Composer... Thats a totally different directly, but one you are welcome to take. You will basically be replacing the query creation tool then. Not sure what that has to do with WDA integration or what type of integration you were looking for.

The BIApplicationFrame only shows the WAD in "old" BW style 3.x. Is it planned to change this element to enable the new style?
