• Key Concepts: 
  Serialization type is a feature of the SAP Application Interface Framework (CA-GTF-AIF) that allows for the serialization of data. Serialization is the process of converting data into a format that can be easily transmitted and stored. Serialization type defines the format in which data is serialized, such as XML, JSON, or binary. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Serialization type is used to define the format in which data is serialized when using the SAP Application Interface Framework (CA-GTF-AIF). This allows for data to be easily transmitted and stored in a format that can be easily understood by other systems. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When selecting a serialization type, it is important to consider the compatibility of the format with other systems. For example, if the data needs to be transmitted to another system, it is important to ensure that the other system can understand the format of the serialized data.
