• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message APS_CCV_SCENARIO001 - External API scenario requires at least one key field or one aggregation. ?

  The SAP error message APS_CCV_SCENARIO001 indicates that an external API scenario is missing key fields or aggregation definitions. This error typically arises when configuring or using an API scenario in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) or SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI) where the required parameters for the API call are not properly defined.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Key Fields: The API scenario requires at least one key field to uniquely identify the data being processed. If no key fields are defined, the system cannot determine which records to operate on.
  Missing Aggregation: If the scenario is intended to perform aggregation (e.g., summing, averaging), at least one aggregation must be specified. Without this, the system does not know how to process the data.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the API scenario setup, such as incorrect mappings or missing parameters.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Key Fields: 
  
  Go to the API scenario configuration in your SAP system.
  Ensure that at least one key field is defined. This could be a unique identifier for the records you are working with (e.g., ID, code).
  
  
  
  Specify Aggregation:
  
  If your scenario requires aggregation, make sure to define at least one aggregation method (e.g., SUM, AVG) in the configuration.
  Check the aggregation settings to ensure they are correctly set up for the data you are working with.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Double-check the entire configuration of the API scenario for any missing or incorrect settings.
  Ensure that all required fields and parameters are correctly mapped and defined.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the API scenario again to see if the error persists.
  Use logging or debugging tools to trace the execution and identify any further issues.
