Independent, reasoning-first practice for the SAP® C_LCNC SAP Build Developer certification, built for the 2026 System-Based Assessment format.
Who it's for: Low-code / no-code developers, business technologists, and citizen developers — plus consultants and business users moving into an SAP Build role — who want a recognized associate credential proving they can connect to SAP back-end systems, model the business data an app uses, and build apps and process automations with SAP Build Process Automation as a mentored member of a delivery team.
The SAP® C_LCNC certification confirms that you can build applications and automate business processes on SAP Build using a low-code / no-code approach, rather than only describing the tools. It checks whether you can connect to SAP back-end systems, model the business data an app consumes, and design and run process automations with SAP Build Process Automation — including forms, decision logic, and Actions that call the APIs of remote systems. The scope reaches across the SAP Business Technology Platform foundation the tools sit on, configuring user access and sites through SAP Build Work Zone, and the newer AI-agent capabilities delivered through Joule Studio. Because it is a System-Based Assessment built around a single hands-on activity, the exam rewards applied execution in a working environment over memorized definitions. Aimed at the developer profile at an associate, project-participation depth, it targets people delivering apps and automations on SAP Build.

Identifying automation use cases, adding task automations with the desktop agent, applying decision logic, and encapsulating and calling the APIs of remote systems through Actions and the SAP Build Process Automation APIs.
Structuring and configuring SAP Build Work Zone — the site menu, workpages, workspaces, application integration, and header-bar settings — to give business users organized, engaging access to the apps and processes you deliver.
Working with Joule Studio to deliver results through Joule Skills for deterministic tasks and to plan and execute multi-step business scenarios with custom Joule agents, including tools and the Model Context Protocol for extending agent behavior.
