Integration with SAP PI for SFTP?
Saluting Apigee top guns from Denver,
Would you be kind enough to share your best practice integration with SAP PI middleware for SFTP files?
Do we already have few successful use cases SFTP files between Apigee & SAP?
Thanks in advance & looking forward to hear from you

Can you elaborate on what you're thinking w.r.t.
integration with SAP PI middleware for SFTP files
what does that mean exactly? Do you have a diagram for what you're imagining?

Henry,
Best way to describe API Management platform such as Apigee is "https-in and https-out". Purpose is to manage API's, typically REST/JSON. Purpose is not to do protocol switching or handle async integration scenario's such as file transfer.
Scenario that does make sense is to protect REST API's exposed by SAP PO with Apigee.
By the way, SAP PI (also SAP PO) is the Java based Integration Platform (aka Service Bus) of SAP, installed on-premise.
