Integration Workflows

Connect to BTP HANA Service

1. List available services:

   hana-cli hanaServiceInstances

2. Get connection details:

   hana-cli getServiceBinding --service-instance MY_HANA

3. Save credentials locally:

   hana-cli connect -d <host> -u <user> -p <password> -s

4. Use HANA CLI normally:

   hana-cli tables

Deploy with HANA on BTP

1. Create new HANA service:

   hana-cli createHANAService --name prod-db --plan standard

2. Wait for provisioning:

   hana-cli hanaServiceInstances -i prod-db

3. Get connection info:

   hana-cli getServiceBinding --service-instance prod-db

4. Use in application:

   • Connection string stored in VCAP_SERVICES
   • HANA CLI auto-detects for local development
   • App uses same default-env.json
