Openproject Interfacing

Hello,

We are using SAP as ERP system, but we want to take the planning out of SAP and into a third party app.

Now is there a plugin or api available for openproject ?

Kind Regards

Hello Tim,

I am not quite sure what kind of plugin you are looking for.
Do you:

  • just want to “export” your current planning data out of SAP and into OpenProject? (i.e. one-time transfer)
  • want to keep both systems linked over time? (i.e. permanent data exchange)
    • If yes: Which kind of data do you need to exchange regularly?

As far as I know there is no OpenProject-Plugin targeting SAP directly.

Regarding an API:
If you need one today your best bet is the APIv2 (docs are here).
But note that this API has been officially deprecated in favor of the development of a new API. This means it will not receive much love regarding feature development anymore.

We are concentrating our API-work on the successor, the APIv3. However APIv3 is not nearly finished yet, today it is merely a draft, but in the long run APIv3 will completely replace APIv2 (and go beyond what APIv2 can do today).
That being said APIv3 is quite open for feedback. So let us know if there are things you don’t like about APIv2.

I can’t yet give a definite estimate on when the APIv3 will be able to replace APIv2 feature-wise.

Best regards
Jan
