sap-tutorials-content

name	sap-tutorials-content
description	Read SAP developer tutorial content from the public developers.sap.com API — catalog, navigation, tutorial HTML/JSON, and full-text search. Use when an agent needs to discover, fetch, or search official SAP tutorials, missions, groups, or concepts without authentication.

SAP tutorials — read-only content access

Fetch official SAP developer tutorial content directly from the public production API. Everything here is anonymous and read-only — no login, no token, no API key. It is the same content served at developers.sap.com.

Use this when you need to:

• discover what tutorials/missions/groups exist,
• pull the rendered HTML or structured JSON of a specific tutorial,
• search the catalog by keyword, tag, or facet,
• or wire the content into an agent via the ready-made public MCP endpoint.

Base URL

https://developers.sap.com

All paths below are relative to that host. Responses set ETag / Cache-Control; honor them and avoid hammering — this is a shared public service. Endpoints verified reachable and anonymous as of 2026-08-18.

Fastest starting points

• GET /llms.txt — a compact, LLM-oriented site map (plain text, ~4 KB). Read this first to orient. GET /llms-full.txt is the expanded version.
• GET /build/catalog — the full catalog as JSON: missions, groups, and tutorials with slugs, titles, and relationships. (~700 KB.)

Discover: catalog, navigation, mappings (JSON)

Endpoint	Returns
GET /build/catalog	Full missions/groups/tutorials catalog
GET /build/navigator	Missions, groups, tutorial→mission/group mappings, checkpoints
GET /build/slug-mapping	slug → internal ID map
GET /build/mission/{slug}	One mission's structure
GET /build/topics-gallery	Topic gallery grouping
GET /build/concepts	Published knowledge-graph concepts
GET /tutorials/_nav.json	Navigation metadata for all published tutorials

Read a specific tutorial

Tutorial slugs are lowercase canonical (mixed-case requests 301-redirect).

Endpoint	Returns
GET /tutorials/{slug}	Rendered tutorial HTML
GET /tutorials/{slug}.model.json	Structured JSON (legacy AEM model.json shape)
GET /content/tutorials/{slug}	Same HTML as /tutorials/{slug} (direct content prefix)

Prefer .model.json when you want to parse steps/structure; prefer the HTML route when you want the page as a human sees it. If you don't know a slug, get it from /build/catalog or via search below.

Concepts & content pages (HTML)

Endpoint	Returns
GET /concepts/	Knowledge-graph concepts index
GET /concepts/{slug}	A single concept landing page (404 if not published)
GET /content/pages/{name}	Content pages (e.g. browse/topics/verb landing pages)
GET /sitemap.xml	Sitemap

Search (OData v4, anonymous)

The search service is anonymous and rate-limited by IP. OData base: /search.

Endpoint	Returns
GET /search/SearchableItems?$search=<q>&$top=20	Ranked items (slug, title, description, tags, searchScore)
GET /search/SearchableItems?$filter=<expr>	Filtered items
GET /search/Tags	Available tags
GET /search/$metadata	EDMX service metadata (the schema for everything above)

Typed OData functions (return structured shapes):

• GET /search/search_tutorials(query='cap',top=10)
• GET /search/list_missions(top=20)
• GET /search/get_mission(slug='...')
• GET /search/get_tutorial(slug='...')
• GET /search/getFacets(...)

There is also a public GraphQL surface at POST /graphql/public.

Read /search/$metadata to confirm exact function parameter names and entity shapes before constructing queries — do not guess field names.

MCP endpoint (ready-made, anonymous)

The platform exposes a public MCP server over Streamable HTTP — no auth. This is the easiest way to give any MCP-capable agent live tutorial search:

https://developers.sap.com/mcp/search    # search tools: search_tutorials, list_missions, get_mission, get_tutorial
https://developers.sap.com/mcp/graph      # knowledge-graph tools

Add to Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http sap-tutorials https://developers.sap.com/mcp/search

Or in Claude Desktop / any MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sap-tutorials": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://developers.sap.com/mcp/search"
    }
  }
}

Quick reachability check (expect an SSE text/event-stream response):

curl -sS -X POST https://developers.sap.com/mcp/search \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

Conventions & etiquette

• Read-only. Nothing here mutates state. Do not attempt POST/PUT against content routes — the write/ops endpoints (/content/publish, /content/rollback, image ingest, admin/QA surfaces) require credentials and are not part of this public read surface.
• Cache-friendly. Respect ETag/Cache-Control; send If-None-Match on repeat fetches. Batch discovery via /build/catalog once rather than crawling every tutorial.
• Lowercase slugs. Always lowercase a slug before requesting it.
• Degrade gracefully. A 404 means "not published"; a 429 means you're being rate-limited — back off. Don't retry aggressively.
• Machine discovery. ORD documents are published under /ord/* and an agent card at /.well-known/agent-card.json for automated capability discovery.
