the help very quickly from SAP either by using Expert Chat channel or creating
an incident. SAP offers many support channels to our customers to get
support quickly, but the challenge is to find the correct component and log the
incident under the correct component so the expert team can follow up quickly
and provide fast resolution.

In this blog, I will share with you a very quick way to locate the component of
an SAP UI5 application so the incident can go to the correct team quickly.

These steps apply only to SAP UI5 applications and only if the SAP UI5
application has a support component defined.

1. Using Chrome, open Fiori Launchpad and login


2. Press F12 to access the debugging tool on Windows. Shortcut for Mac
is CTRL+OPTON+K
3. Click on the Fiori tile application you need to find the component for in
Fiori Launchpad ( for example .. ) let’s say I am using “My Inbox”
application and I do not know the component. Click on My Inbox tile
4. In the debugger click on Console tab as shown below:

5. Execute this line of code from the console

rvice("AppLifeCycle").getCurrentApplication().componentInstance.getM

6. This will show you the component as shown below:

Note: If after executing the code and you get “Undefined”, that means two
things:

1. Either you are not in the applicationOr


2. The application did not have a component associated with it

Thanks for this. This is a useful way to get at the manifest without having to reload in
debug or read it out of the component-preload.
