• Key Concepts: 
  RAP message is a type of message used in the BC-ESI-RAP RESTful ABAP Programming Model. It is a lightweight, asynchronous messaging protocol that enables communication between different components of an SAP system. It is based on the Representational State Transfer (REST) architecture and uses the JSON format for data exchange.

  RAP messages are used to send and receive data between different components of an SAP system. They are sent using the HTTP protocol and can be used to trigger events, send notifications, or exchange data between different components. The messages are sent asynchronously, meaning that the sender does not need to wait for a response before continuing with other tasks.

  When sending RAP messages, it is important to ensure that the message is properly formatted and contains all the necessary information. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the message is sent securely, as it contains sensitive data.
