ADT Data preview tool overview
The provided sources outline the technical framework and functional capabilities of the SAP ADT Data Preview API, which enables developers to inspect data directly within the ABAP Development Tools. This system is organized into five architectural pillars that handle different data sources, including traditional DDIC tables, semantic CDS views, and AMDP procedures. The documentation details specific RESTful service definitions and URL templates used to request metadata, navigate data associations, or execute ad-hoc SQL freestyle queries. Additionally, specialized tools like the AMDP Debugger facilitate live memory inspection by mapping active sessions to specific database variables. By utilizing these structured endpoints, the backend can efficiently stream formatted results to the IDE while managing server performance through row limitations. These resources collectively explain how the Data Preview engine translates developer interactions into precise backend actions and relational joins.
