ABAP Development Tool(ADT) offers easy way to explore released API in the system. It allows you to search the APIs depending on the release state, release contract(C0, C1, C2, etc) and other criteria such as application component, packages, etc.

Create ABAP Repository Tree

From your ABAP project, right click->ABAP Repository Tree. Choose Released Object ->Next. 

In the Property Filter: field, enter ‘api:’ and press Ctrl + Space to get drop down of all API types. To find released API for tier1/tier2 extensibility development, choose USE_IN_CLOUD_DEVELOPMENT and Finish.

A new tree is created under the project that contains all types of object that are released for ABAP for Cloud Development.

Customize ABAP Repository Tree

You can customize the tree with your own categorization. Right click on the tree -> Derive New Tree. Choose the breakdown category. For example, it’s convenient to use Application Component or package if user wants to see released objects per each line of business and areas within.
