I am trying to create a OData function import via RAP.
When I use an abstract CDS view to define my parameter like this it works just fine:
static function XXX parameter YYY result [0..*] $self;
define abstract entity YYY
{
importParameter: abap.string;
}
But since I only want a single importing parameter I thought about using a DDIC Type like it is implied in the Cloud ABAP documentation of CDS BDL - InputParameter:
The input parameter entity
ParameterEntitycan be a CDS abstract entity or a classic DDIC type
When I use DDIC Types, the metadata shows that there are no importing parameters. I tried data elements, domains and primitive types, but even though all of them get through the syntax check with none of them the metadata of my service has a importing parameter.
Structures work again, but then again, I would have a structure with only a single attribute to which I would prefer the abstract CDS view.
Is it not possible the use singular DDIC types as parameter? And if it is possible, how is it possible?
