• Key Concepts: 
  Inbound plug is a component of the BC-WD Web Dynpro. It is a mechanism that allows external applications to communicate with the Web Dynpro application. It enables the external application to send data to the Web Dynpro application and receive data from it. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use an inbound plug, the external application must first be configured to send data to the Web Dynpro application. This can be done by setting up a URL that points to the Web Dynpro application. Once this is done, the external application can send data to the Web Dynpro application using this URL. The Web Dynpro application can then process this data and send back a response. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up an inbound plug, it is important to ensure that the URL is secure and that only authorized applications can access it. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the data being sent is properly formatted so that it can be processed by the Web Dynpro application.
