Introduction
SAP Cloud Integration version 6.54.**, one of the capabilities of SAP Integration Suite, comes with an enhancement on Generative AI (GenAI) feature – GenAI based Integration Flow Generation. This feature will be available only in SAP Integration Suite Cloud Integration Premium Editions, on specific regions/data centres JP10, EU10, AP10, US10, EU10-003, EU10-002, and US10-002. This feature is forecasted to rollout during calendar week 29/30/31 2024 (tentative timelines, subjected to change as per phased rollout plan).
Enabling GenAI Based Integration Flow Generation feature
As tenant administrator of your premium edition tenant, you need to enable this feature in Settings page of SAP Integration Suite. By enabling this feature, you need to agree to the relevant terms and conditions.
Below are the sample screenshots of the same
Settings Tab for Generative AI
Click on Edit
Switch ON the flag
Terms and Conditions
Clicking on Save button will display the user who has accepted the terms and condition. Click on Save and then click on Cancel button to come out of edit mode.
Generating Integration Flows
Once this feature is switched ON by the tenant administrator, you – as integration flow developer persona – can use this feature to generate integration flows.
The GenAI based integration flow generation makes use of the Unified Cloud Landscape (UCL) concept. For that, you need to configure your account’s System Landscape configuration with SAP Integration Suite formation and add the required systems in that formation.
Note: SAP Integration Suite formation/system type is getting rolled out to relevant data centres. This blog note will be updated once rollout is complete.
If you have a successful SAP Integration Suite formation created with some systems (e.g. S4), the GenAI based Integration flow generation feature will browse the systems and APIs and lists them in the Sender and Receiver sections in GenAI based integration flow creation UI dialog, as shown in the screenshot below. For more information on how to achieve this, see Enabling System Landscape in SAP BTP Cockpit for SAP Integration Suite.
Below are the sample screenshots of System Landscape configuration with Systems with system type SAP Integration Suite (the sub-account where Integration Suite is subscribed to) and Formations of type of Integration with SAP Integration Suite formation type along with other systems participating in the integration.
Some sample systems added
SAP Integration Suite sample formation
In case if you have not enabled System Landscape configuration as above, the systems and API listings will not happen for Sender and Receiver systems, and these fields will be empty in the selection of GenAI based integration flow UI dialog.
Now, you click on Add -> Integration flow menu in your package view, you will be given option of generating the integration flow with assistance from AI or create integration flow manually. Below are the screenshots of generating integration flows using generative AI.
Click on Package Edit
Edit the package
Click on Add -> Integration Flow menu
Select Integration Flow
Choose GenAI based Integration flow generation option
Provide your scenario description and click on Send button
Observe the AI response and correct the description in case of suggestions
After correcting the description, click on send button again. If scenario description is correct, AI will list the sender and receiver systems from configured System Landscape infromation
Clicking on Select button will list other systems from System Landscape configuration
AI will suggest integration scenario name, you can change it
Click on Generate button to generate integration flow
Upon click on Generate button, an integration flow will be generated as shown in
Generated Integration Flow template
Observe the Timer flow step generated as per the schedule in scenario description in GenAI dialog
Sender system address configuration has been pre-filled as per the system discovery from System Landscape (UCL) information along with Receiver system
The generated integration flow will act as a template, you need to further configure the integration flow and/or update the integration with some more integration steps to match your end to end integration scenario requirement.
Note: As mentioned above, in case of issues in UCL, the systems and API listings will not happen for Sender and Receiver systems, and these fields will be empty in the selection of GenAI based integration flow UI dialog as shown in sample screenshot below. You can still continue the integration flow generation.
GenAI Integration Flow generation dialog when UCL systems & API discovery fails, sender and receiver fields will be empty.
This feature is currently provided on the basis of free and fair usage option. Due to this, you will be allowed to generate limited number of integration flows per tenant per calendar month for next 6 months. The exact number of integration flows generated with GenAI will be difficult to provide, because it depends on the scenario description you provided and the responses from GenAI backend, and back-and-forth communication, which ends up in consumption of GenAI transactions. If you exhaust these transactions, you will observe below information message.

Summary
SAP Integration Suite – Cloud Integration GenAI based integration flow generation feature will help you bootstrap and accelerate the integration development activity.
As a first step towards the generative AI in integration, we have introduced this feature which currently able to interpret the scenario description and generate an integration flow with sender and receiver systems only. Going forward, we will be enhancing this offering to include mediation steps (e.g. converters, mappings etc.) based on the description on the integration scenario to generate more enriched integration flow.
