This has far-reaching consequences for companies that are currently developing their AI strategy. We analyze the most important points and show which recommendations for action result from this.  <\/p>\n<h3>What does the new SAP API Policy regulate?<\/h3>\n<p>The API Policy is part of the official SAP documentation and applies to all SAP cloud solutions as well as the on-premise portfolio &#8211; including S\/4HANA Private Cloud (RISE) and all line-of-business solutions. It pursues four central objectives: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>APIs should be used as intended<\/strong> &#8211; i.e. only as specified in the documentation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Platform stability and security<\/strong> should be protected.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Misuse should be prevented<\/strong> &#8211; in particular through uncontrolled automated access.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scalable innovation should be supported<\/strong>, precisely because AI and agentic access is increasing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Important: SAP emphasizes that the policy does not change any existing license rights or functional authorizations. Nevertheless, it clearly defines which APIs may be used &#8211; and which may not. <\/p>\n<h3>The three categories: Permitted, tolerated, prohibited<\/h3>\n<p>In future, SAP will make a clear distinction between three types of interfaces:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Published APIs<\/strong> (Published APIs): All interfaces that are documented in the SAP Business Accelerator Hub, in the SAP Help Portal or in product-specific portals (e.g. Ariba, Concur). These may be used within the documented limits. <\/li>\n<li>Non-published <strong>APIs<\/strong>: SAP-internal interfaces that have never been officially documented but are used by many customers and partners. These fall into the &#8220;use at your own risk&#8221; category &#8211; they can be changed or removed at any time. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Explicitly prohibited APIs<\/strong>: Interfaces that are marked as &#8220;Confidential and Proprietary&#8221; or have been classified as not permitted by SAP Notes. Prominent example: ODP-RFC for third-party tools. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Particularly relevant for SMEs: Community blog posts and forum contributions do not make an API a &#8220;Published API&#8221;. Only the official SAP documentation confers this status. <\/p>\n<h3>What does this mean for AI agents and automation?<\/h3>\n<p>This is where it gets exciting &#8211; and at the same time critical for many companies that are currently developing their AI strategy. The policy explicitly requires that <strong>AI-controlled, agentic or automated access patterns require SAP endorsement<\/strong>. The reasoning from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sap.com\/documents\/2026\/04\/e2a0665e-4c7f-0010-bca6-c68f7e60039b.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official FAQ document<\/a> is revealing:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Volume and unpredictability:<\/strong> A single prompt to an AI agent can trigger thousands of API calls &#8211; in patterns that transactional APIs cannot handle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Security risks:<\/strong> Independent research shows that a significant proportion of MCP servers use static, long-lived credentials. Supply chain attacks such as &#8220;Mini Shai-Hulud&#8221;<a href=\"https:\/\/me.sap.com\/notes\/3747787\">(SAP Note 3747787<\/a> see also our <a href=\"https:\/\/simplifier.io\/en\/sap\/why-vibe-coding-in-sap-btp-is-not-always-the-best-idea-and-how-simplifier-offers-more-security\/\">blog post on vibe coding at BTP<\/a>) have directly compromised SAP ecosystem packages. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Data integrity:<\/strong> An agent without a complete business context can inadvertently write incorrect data back into the system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>SAP explicitly recognizes that agentic AI is an important trend. The restriction is directed against <strong>uncontrolled, undocumented access patterns<\/strong> &#8211; not against AI in general. <\/p>\n<h3>The two &#8220;endorsed&#8221; architectures: MCP Gateway and A2A<\/h3>\n<p>SAP defines two official paths for AI access to SAP systems:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>MCP Gateway on SAP Integration Suite:<\/strong> A customer-managed entry point with authentication, authorization, rate limiting and audit logging. External AI platforms can access SAP via this route. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol:<\/strong> For multi-agent scenarios in which an external AI orchestrator needs to delegate tasks to SAP-managed agents. A2A is an open standard under the Linux Foundation. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>SAP is positioning itself here as a standards developer, not a standards consumer: the company is a gold member of the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) and leads the workstream on agent identity and security.<\/p>\n<h3>What does that mean in concrete terms?<\/h3>\n<p>Companies that today let AI agents loose directly on SAP APIs &#8211; for example via self-built MCP servers or direct API calls from LLM orchestration tools &#8211; are operating in a gray area that SAP will increasingly restrict. The preferred routes are via SAP-controlled gateways. <\/p>\n<h3>Voices from the industry: &#8220;Not a restriction, but a step towards maturity&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>Reactions in the SAP community are varied. <strong>Valentino Koester<\/strong>, Global SAP &#038; AI Leader at KPMG, puts it in a nutshell in a much-noticed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/valentinokoester_trustedai-aiwithsap-enterpriseai-share-7458979405097414656-a8hn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn analysis<\/a>:  <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;SAP didn&#8217;t close its APIs. It redefined how AI is allowed to interact with SAP systems.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8221;<br \/>\nKoester argues that the policy marks an architectural paradigm shift: away from the idea of a central AI layer that orchestrates all workflows across SAP and non-SAP platforms towards <strong>distributed intelligence with platform-specific execution boundaries<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Distributed intelligence<\/strong> instead of centralized orchestration<\/li>\n<li><strong>Federated agents<\/strong> &#8211; AI systems exchange intentions instead of taking over each other&#8217;s processes<\/li>\n<li><strong>Platform-owned Execution Boundaries<\/strong> &#8211; each platform controls its own execution environment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Jennifer Maier<\/strong> (KPMG) adds a crucial question in the comments: Who bears responsibility when AI agents autonomously prioritize decisions, change process flows or trigger actions across multiple systems? Governance models and control mechanisms need to <strong>develop in parallel with the technology<\/strong> &#8211; not years later. <\/p>\n<p>This perspective coincides with a key finding: the API policy is less a technical restriction than the formalization of what enterprise architects already know &#8211; <strong>uncontrolled AI autonomy in transactional systems is not a viable model<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Vendor lock-in or legitimate governance?<\/h3>\n<p>SAP addresses the vendor lock-in issue directly in the FAQ. The central statement: the policy <strong>does not<\/strong> restrict the use of third-party integration tools, AI platforms or data platforms &#8211; provided that access is via published SAP APIs and endorsed architectures. <\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, a differentiated picture emerges:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Third-party integration platforms<\/strong> may continue to be used &#8211; but only via Published APIs and in compliance with the rate limits.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Third-party AI platforms<\/strong> must access via endorsed architectures (A2A via Joule\/Agent Gateway).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Third-party data platforms<\/strong> receive SAP data via BDC Connect and Delta Sharing &#8211; legacy paths such as ODP-RFC are explicitly no longer supported.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For customers, this means that the freedom of choice on the non-SAP side remains intact. But <strong>access on the SAP side is increasingly being channeled<\/strong>. Anyone relying on uncontrolled API access today needs to rethink.  <\/p>\n<h3>Impact on RISE customers and existing integrations<\/h3>\n<p>There is good news and not so good news for companies in the RISE transformation process:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Good:<\/strong> Customer APIs in the Z or Y namespace are not affected. Custom RFCs, BAPIs and function modules remain permitted &#8211; as long as they do not bypass any SAP-internal APIs or generate uncontrolled load. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Less good:<\/strong> Remediation of existing integrations that rely on non-published SAP APIs is <strong>not automatically included in the RISE scope<\/strong>. SAP recommends clarifying this explicitly during contract negotiations. <\/p>\n<p>SAP provides tools such as the ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC) with Cloud Readiness Check to identify dependencies on non-published interfaces in your own code.<\/p>\n<h3>Five recommendations for action for SMEs<\/h3>\n<p>Based on the analysis of the SAP API policy and the implications for SMEs, we recommend the following steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Perform an API inventory:<\/strong> Check which SAP APIs your integrations are using today. Are they published APIs? Use the ATC Cloud Readiness Check to identify risks.  <\/li>\n<li><strong>Align AI strategy with governance:<\/strong> If you use AI agents that access SAP data, evaluate the endorsed architectures (MCP Gateway, A2A). Do not plan any production scenarios based on uncontrolled API access. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Ensure platform independence:<\/strong> Rely on integration platforms that can connect both SAP-endorsed and non-SAP systems &#8211; without having to rely on a single vendor architecture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check RISE contracts:<\/strong> Before signing or renewing a contract, clarify whether the remediation of existing integrations is included in the scope.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Build an orchestration layer:<\/strong> Instead of letting AI agents loose directly on individual system APIs, you need a governance layer that centrally controls authentication, authorization, rate limiting and audit logging.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>The Simplifier perspective: Sovereign AI orchestration as the answer<\/h3>\n<p>The SAP API Policy makes one thing clear: direct, uncontrolled access by AI agents to enterprise systems is not a viable architecture &#8211; regardless of the vendor. What companies need is a <strong>sovereign orchestration layer<\/strong> that mediates between AI agents and backend systems. <\/p>\n<p>This is precisely the core of the <a href=\"https:\/\/simplifier.io\/en\/technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Simplifier platform<\/a>: As an <strong>agentic AI platform for SAP companies<\/strong>, Simplifier offers an architecture that embeds AI agents into existing process landscapes in a governance-compliant manner &#8211; with complete control over authentication, data flows and system access.<\/p>\n<p>The decisive advantages:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>No vendor lock-in:<\/strong> Simplifier relies on open standards (API-first, MCP-compatible) and gives customers full code ownership.<\/li>\n<li><strong>SAP-native integration:<\/strong> Deep SAP connection via published APIs &#8211; compliant with the new API policy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Governance by design:<\/strong> AI agents are orchestrated via a central runtime that enforces roles, authorizations and audit trails.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Operation according to customer choice:<\/strong> On-premise, hybrid or sovereign cloud &#8211; no forced hyperscaler dependency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The SAP API Policy confirms a development that we have been advocating for a long time: AI in enterprise systems needs a controlled execution layer. No longer &#8220;AI can do everything directly&#8221;, but <strong>&#8220;AI is used in an orchestrated, governed and controlled manner&#8221;.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion: The API policy as a catalyst for better AI architectures<\/h2>\n<p>SAP&#8217;s new API policy is not a step backwards, but a necessary step towards maturity. It enforces what was overdue in enterprise AI anyway: governance, controlled access paths and clear architectural decisions. For medium-sized companies, this means a need for action in the short term &#8211; but more stable and secure AI integrations in the long term.  <\/p>\n<p>The key question for decision-makers is no longer &#8220;Whether AI&#8221;, but <strong>&#8220;How do I orchestrate AI so that it works securely and in compliance with governance in my enterprise landscape?&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you want to answer this question for your company, <a href=\"https:\/\/simplifier.io\/en\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">talk to us<\/a>.
