Other Key features
Audit Trail
The FEXS API Connect offers a robust interface processing pipeline with a comprehensive audit trail feature that captures every status change, including timestamps, user actions, and comments. This tool lets you keep a detailed record of changes until the pipeline record is deleted, allowing you to track decisions and processes effectively. Designed to enhance accountability and support informed decision-making, it is an essential component of your operational toolkit.
Archiving Options
Unlock the power of precision with FEXS API Connect’s archiving capabilities, where configurability meets compliance in a user-friendly interface designed to enhance your operational oversight.

Auto Deletion
The FEXS API Connect is designed for high-volume interfaces that store a lot of processing data. To prevent performance issues and high storage costs, interface records are automatically deleted when finished. However, you can overrule the default deletion period for each interface by configuration and code for auditing purposes.
Guarantee Delivery
Guarantee delivery scenarios play a vital role in preventing the processing of identical requests multiple times, which can lead to unintended outcomes such as duplicate payments. FEXS API Connect supports several guaranteed delivery options that are out-of-the-box capabilities by configuration.
Wait and Proceed
The wait and proceed option efficiently allows you to pause your interface processing and wait for essential external triggers by setting a maximum retention. This design ensures smooth operation, reducing risk and enhancing reliability. Once the retention period expires or the trigger is received, the system automatically resumes processing, allowing you to control how outcomes are reported and further processing takes place, guaranteeing operational integrity.
Interface Lifetime
In interface processing, timing is crucial, and understanding interface lifetime is essential to guarantee consistency. You can define a finite lifetime of the started interface in minutes. Once this period passes, any unfinished interface processes become obsolete, preventing outdated actions from disrupting current operations. This approach prevents unnecessary resource allocation, enabling your teams to focus on relevant tasks
Longrun Processes
With FEXS API Connect, you have the power to effortlessly manage long-running processes without the hassle of complex configurations. By simply ticking a checkbox in the interface settings, you can seamlessly transition any process into a background task, ensuring that your critical operations continue to run efficiently even when they exceed the typical SAP work process lifetime. This innovative approach not only optimizes your workflow but also enhances system performance, allowing your team to focus on more strategic initiatives while maintaining a steady flow of data processing. Embrace the simplicity and efficiency of FEXS API Connect to elevate your operational capabilities.
Parent-Child
Harness the power of enhanced interfaces with FEXS API Connect’s parent-child pipeline functionality, allowing you to initiate multiple child pipelines under a single parent while maintaining clear visibility and flexibility in their execution. This innovative approach not only streamlines performance and simplifies interface flows but also revolutionizes error handling strategies, enabling you to configure your pipelines for either independent or dependent outcomes. Imagine a scenario where one successful child pipeline can lead to a successful parent, or where you can choose to define success only when all children have completed their tasks. This degree of adaptability empowers your operations to respond swiftly to dynamic business demands, ensuring that your integration processes remain resilient, efficient, and perfectly aligned with your organizational goals.
Testing
Imagine taking complete control of your testing process directly within your ABAP stack, eliminating the reliance on external tools like Postman. With our FEXS API Test tool, simply empower your users with the right SAP authorizations, without the hassle of sharing user settings, while securely storing and sharing test configurations and results. This functionality not only safeguards your valuable test cases but also allows for automated execution and evaluation of outcomes, ensuring a streamlined and efficient testing experience.
