Manage multiple native and hybrid application registrations from a
single location. Registered applications are associated with a user, an anonymous user, or
nosec_identity on one or more devices. When the user accesses the application from a device
the application is registered. View information for all application registrations, or retrieve
a filtered subset of registrations. From the list of registrations, you can drill down to see
application and user details. For hybrid applications, if the developer has implemented Logger
code in the application, you can drill down to upload and view client logs. You can also
delete registrations.
Registration is handled on the client side through Logon Manager. When a user logs in
from the device (or is logged in anonymously by the client application), the user is
authenticated on SAP Mobile Platform Server using the security profile configured
for the application. If authentication is successful, SAP Mobile Platform
generates a registration identifier for the application+user+device combination, and
creates a record in the SAP Mobile Platform database, indicating the
device allows the application to consume data and services of
SAP Mobile Platform.
SAP Mobile Platform sends the registration identifier to the device
application. For all subsequent requests, such as accessing data in the back-end data
source, the device client sends the registration ID to
SAP Mobile Platform Server.
- From Management Cockpit, select
Registrations on the Home screen to view application
connections. Alternatively, in the Applications tab, click the

Field |
Value |
Registration ID |
System-generated application
registration ID. |
Application ID |
Unique identifier for the
application, in reverse domain notation. This is the application or bundled
identifier that the application developer assigns or generates during application
development. The administrator uses the Application ID to register the application
to SAP Mobile Platform Server, and the client application code uses the
Application ID while sending requests to the server. |
Device Type |
The
parameter value, such as Android and iPhone, sent by the device during
registration/onboarding. "Unknown" indicates the device type cannot be
detected. |
User Name |
Name of a person
using the application registration. If the application is configured to "Allow Anonymous Access", the
user name "anonymous" is used for a successful registration, and can indicate:- The user has not provided the credentials.
- The user has provided the wrong credentials.
- The URL is prefixed with /public/.
If the security profile is "No Authentication Challenge", the
user name "nosec_identity" is used for a successful
registration. |
Registration Time |
The date, time, and time zone the
application was registered, in the format MMM DD YYYY HH:MM:SS TZ. |
Client Log |
If
client logging is enabled for the application and data is available, click to upload
the client log to the server. You can specify the level of verbosity.Note: Client logs are
available only for hybrid applications.
