Import the external service definition

# Import from SAP API Business Hub / metadata endpoint
cds import ./BusinessPartner_A2X.edmx --as cds

# Or from a live system
cds import https://my.s4system.example.com/sap/opu/odata/sap/API_BUSINESS_PARTNER/$metadata \
  --as cds --force

This generates srv/external/API_BUSINESS_PARTNER.cds — commit this file!
