SAP Cloud Transport Management service can be used to transport the following entities, called content types:
-
Multitarget Application archives (MTAs -
.mtarfiles) between different spaces in SAP BTP subaccountsMTAs can consist of a cloud application itself, or content created in a cloud application, which you want to transport between two subaccounts. For example, SAP Cloud Integration content is packaged and transported as an MTA.
Transporting MTAs without modules is not supported.
-
BTP ABAP: references to ABAP objects in a Git repository between different SAP BTP ABAP environment instances. A reference can consist of the name of the software component, the commit ID, the branch name, and the tag name. When a reference of type BTP ABAP is imported, the referenced content of the Git repository is pulled to the target instance.
-
Application content transported in an application-specific format between different cloud subaccounts and tenants
In general, application content is packed in archive files, for example,
.zipfiles, or.rarfiles. The archives can contain any kind of application-specific content. The application that has created such an archive file must provide a method to deploy the application-specific content into the target environment. This means, such an archive file can only be used for transport if the application-specific deployment service in the target environment is able to handle it. For more information, see the documentation of the individual applications. -
Delivery units (DUs) of SAP HANA XS classic model between different SAP HANA instances that are assigned to cloud subaccounts
These content types (files or references) can be transported in one of the following scenarios:
- Directly from within another application
- They are uploaded from a Continuous Integration pipeline.
- They are available on local file systems.
The table contains a list of development artifacts and application-specific content that can be transported using SAP Cloud Transport Management service.
The table contains the following information:
-
SAP BTPService / SAP Cloud Solution: SAP BTP Service or SAP Cloud Solution in which content is developed.
-
Content: Application-specific content and development artifacts to be transported.
-
Environment: SAP BTP environment where the content is created, either SAP BTP ABAP environment, Cloud Foundry, or Neo.
-
Content Type: Entity to transport that you can select when you create a new node in SAP Cloud Transport Management.
-
Design Time Integration: Can the transport be triggered directly in the design time tool of the application where the content is produced?
-
Content Agent Service: Is the integration with SAP Cloud Transport Management realized using SAP Content Agent service? (Cloud Foundry only)
-
Solution Export Wizard: Is the integration with SAP Cloud Transport Management realized using Solution Export Wizard? (Neo only)
-
Continuous Integration (CI) Pipeline Upload: Is there a CI pipeline template available with the option of uploading content to SAP Cloud Transport Management?
For more information about integration into CI pipelines, see the links to More Information listed in the Integration Scenario: Receiving transports comprising release candidates qualified by automated pipelines in SAP Continuous Integration and Delivery service, in particular the series of tutorial videos.
