SAP BAPI errors
What is it?
This page lists SAP BAPI error message numbers and their internal SAP descriptions. These errors originate from SAP itself when the SAP Agent calls into the SAP system through the BAPI surface (logon, job control, log retrieval, and so on). Use this table to map a numeric value found in agent logs or a SAP-side trace to a SAP-side meaning.

FAQs
Are these errors generated by the SAP Agent? No. They originate in SAP and are surfaced through the BAPI/XBP interface. The agent reports them in its logs but does not create them.
Where can I see one of these errors at runtime?
In the SAP Agent log files (SAPLSAM.log and SAPLSAMTrace.log). See Logging for log locations.
