How to access MDM WD components on server ?

[abhijeet_mukkawar]

Hi All,

We are working on CE 7.2 SP5 and MDM 7.1 SP6.

The scenario we want to implement is to access the MDM WDC Project dynamically and read all the Item Details / Result set etc. in it and based on that build some UI solution.

For this we want to know the ways to access MDM WD Components or the path on server where it gets stored.

Hi ,

If u have an sap portal u can create an iview to show the content of the wd to the endusers

Especially this guide:

How To Build Web Applications Using MDM Web Dynpro Components > http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-16297

the WD Config screen can access vie this url: http://<server>:<port>/mdm/wdconfig

Hi Fabian,

Thanks for you reply.

However, I want to access the WDC project on server file system at runtime. Guess, the project gets into XML representation on server file system and I want to access that XML file.

Looking for the path/or any particular place where i can look for the file on server.

Hi Abhijeet,

the config ist stored on the db not on the server.

For details check this:

http://help.sap-ag.de/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/4a/af1dc59d36449de10000000a42189b/content.htm

The project configuration file is saved in the SAPNetWeaver Application Server Java (AS Java) database.

regards,

fabian
