We have created couple of REST API applications to run through SUP 2.2 and netweaver gateway.
At first we just used SUP proxy directly without using connection creation. Later on we added also application connection.
We are still wondering what are the actual benefits for using application connection creation? Is it only that you can get push notifications and see some client related logs, browse user lists in SUP SCC? After creating a connection, you still need to pass username/password in headers in order to get data from the backend (netweaver) so there seems to be no real benefits in client development perspective.
Is there something what we are missing here?
