    Hi @Suchism ,

     

    Please find this blog to see how to call web API form Portal.

    thanks for the link !

    If most of the dataset is from non-CDS source , is it advisable to use ajax calls everytime read/write operations are performed within portal(recommended way ?) . Or through a custom control .js file which internally calls apis ? Is there a way to use connectors(within Portal) as in Canvas apps .
