Next, we are going to set up the connection to the open data application programming interface (Odata API) of SAP Sales Cloud. This can be done by configuring an OData type data resource in SAP Build Apps. An API allows us to fetch data from SAP Sales Cloud to use in our extension app. OData is an open API standard used by many SAP APIs. JSON is a popular data format used by APIs.
