Detect SAP

The Detect SAP action force detects the running instance of SAP. Before Nintex RPA LE can interact with SAP, it must first be aware that it is running. Nintex RPA LE is designed to automatically detect SAP, but in certain scenarios, SAP may not be detected. You can add a Detect SAP action to a botflow to instruct Nintex RPA LE to look for SAP.

Note: The Detect SAP action is slow to execute; therefore, use this action sparingly to maximize speed. In most cases, this action is not needed.

Note: The Actions Quick Reference provides a complete list of actions that you can print for easy reference.
