I have an SAPUI5 based application in which I'm setting the button icons using the url to the icon
under the SAP site https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/iconExplorer.html.
sample code

<Button id="excel" text="Excel" icon="sap-icon://excel-attachment" type="Accept"

enabled="false" press="onDataExport"/>
Now we have to migrate to a different environment in which we cannot use these url's. We
downloaded the SAPUI5 api and reference it remotely within the app. I looked under the folders but I
cannot find where these icons are stored. Does anyone know where I can find the sap icons within the
api folder? Assuming they are stored in there. If not, is there a way to get these icons so I can store
them locally?

Yes. they are fonts

at https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/resources/sap/ui/core/themes/base/fonts/SAP-icons.ttf
And if you check https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/resources/sap/ui/core/IconPool-dbg.js, you can
see the mapping between icon name and a numeric value which represents the char code of an icon in
the 'SAP-icons' font.
You can also check this blog for the UI5 Icon mapping logic and quote here about Fonts.
"Fonts are a vector representation of images instead of binaries like GIF, JPEG or PNG. This means
that they are able to be sized to any dimension without the loss of quality."

Thank you!

icons in SAPUI5 are stored as a font: the name of the font is SAP-icons.ttf. If you install the font on
your system, you can check the character map and see the different icons.
