name: automation-pilot-catalog-explorer description: Discover available commands and catalogs in SAP Automation Pilot via API. Use when you need to find what executors/commands exist, get command definitions, or explore a catalog before generating new commands. Essential for complex command generation involving multiple services.

Catalog Explorer

Discover available commands in SAP Automation Pilot dynamically via API.

Prerequisites

Environment variables must be set:

export AUTOPI_HOSTNAME="emea.autopilot.cloud.sap"
export AUTOPI_USERNAME="your-username"
export AUTOPI_PASSWORD="your-password"

API Operations

List All Catalogs

Discover what catalogs are available in the tenant.

# List all catalogs (SAP-provided + custom)
curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/catalogs"

# List only SAP-provided catalogs (built-in)
curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/catalogs?provided=true"

# List only custom/tenant catalogs
curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/catalogs?own=true"

List Commands in a Catalog

CATALOG="applm-sapcp"
curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/commands?catalog=$CATALOG"

Get Command Definition

COMMAND_ID="applm-sapcp:RestartCfApp:1"
curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/commands/$COMMAND_ID"

Search Across Catalogs

Find commands matching a pattern.

# List all SAP-provided catalog IDs
curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/catalogs?own=false"

# Search specific catalogs for commands matching a keyword
for catalog in applm-sapcp sm-sapcp cf-sapcp; do
  echo "=== $catalog ==="
  curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
    "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/commands?catalog=$catalog"
done

Workflow: Complex Command Generation

When generating a command that involves multiple services:

1. User: "Create a command that restarts CF apps and checks SM bindings"

2. Discover relevant catalogs:
   - Query: GET /commands?catalog=applm-sapcp
   - Query: GET /commands?catalog=sm-sapcp

3. Find specific commands:
   - Found: applm-sapcp:RestartCfApp:1
   - Found: sm-sapcp:GetServiceBinding:1

4. Fetch definitions to understand parameters:
   - GET /commands/applm-sapcp:RestartCfApp:1
   - GET /commands/sm-sapcp:GetServiceBinding:1

5. Generate composite command using discovered executors

Error Handling

Error	Meaning	Action
401 Unauthorized	Invalid credentials	Check AUTOPI_USERNAME/PASSWORD in .env
404 Not Found	Catalog/command doesn't exist	Use discovery to find correct ID
Empty response	No commands in catalog	Catalog may be empty or restricted
