Fiori MCP-First Development

Before writing, modifying, debugging, or fixing CDS annotations, Fiori Elements page configuration, or manifest.json, you MUST query the Fiori MCP server and apply its guidance.

Tools

Use mcp__fiori-mcp-server__* tools — primarily mcp__fiori-mcp-server__search_docs, mcp__fiori-mcp-server__list_functionality, mcp__fiori-mcp-server__get_functionality_details, and mcp__fiori-mcp-server__execute_functionality.

Workflow

  1. Query before coding — call mcp__fiori-mcp-server__search_docs for annotation patterns, floorplan config, or manifest structure
  2. Trust MCP over training knowledge — if guidance conflicts with what you know, follow MCP
  3. Use Fiori MCP tooling for modifications — before manually editing manifest.json or annotations, check if mcp__fiori-mcp-server__list_functionality provides an automated function
  4. Prefer the simplest pattern when MCP returns multiple valid approaches

Scope

This skill covers:

  • CDS annotations: @UI, @Common, @Capabilities, @Communication
  • Fiori Elements floorplans: List Report, Object Page, Analytical List Page
  • manifest.json configuration: routing, data sources, control configuration
  • Custom actions in manifest (controlConfiguration.actions)

Fiori Elements App Rules

When creating or modifying SAP Fiori Elements applications:

  • The application typically starts with a List Report page showing the base entity in a table. Row details are shown in an ObjectPage based on the same entity.
  • An ObjectPage can contain table sections based on to-many associations. Row details in a table section can open another ObjectPage based on the association's target entity.
  • The data model must have one main entity with navigation properties to related entities.
  • Each property must have a proper datatype.
  • For all entities, provide primary keys of type UUID.
  • When creating sample data in CSV files, all primary keys and foreign keys MUST be in UUID format (e.g., 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440001).
  • When modifying the application (e.g., adding columns), do not use screen personalization — modify the project code. Always check whether mcp__fiori-mcp-server__list_functionality provides a suitable function first.
  • When previewing, use the most specific npm run watch-* script for the app in package.json.
