SuccessFactors HCM
Integration Cloud connects to SuccessFactors using the SuccessFactors web service SFAPI, and performs SuccessFactors operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete, Fetch, Insert, Query, queryMore, and Upsert) over HTTP using synchronous SOAP protocols. This Application has been tested with the following business objects: GOAL$1, GOAL$2, GOAL$3, GoalMilestone$2, GoalMilestone$3, GoalTask$2, GoalTask$3, MatrixManager, and CustomManager.
Field
Description
Server URL
Provide the login endpoint to initiate communication with the SaaS provider. Example: https://api.successfactors.com/sfapi/v1/soap
https://<instance_name>.successfactors.com, where <instance_name> represents the actual instance name.
Response Timeout
The number of milliseconds Integration Cloud waits for a response before canceling its attempt to connect to the back end. In case the network is slow or the back end processing takes longer than usual, increase the Response Timeout value. It is recommended to specify a value other than 0. If you specify 0, Integration Cloud will wait indefinitely for a response.
Retry Count on Response Failure
The number of times Integration Cloud attempts to connect to the back end to read a response if the initial attempt fails. If an I/O error occurs, it will retry only if you have selected the Retry on Response Failure option.
Retry on Response Failure
Whether Integration Cloud should attempt to resend the request when the response has failed, even though the request was sent successfully. Select this option if you want to re-establish the connection.
Username
This is the user account name on the SaaS provider that the Account will use to connect to the SaaS provider. The Account will use this credential to connect to the SaaS provider.
Password
Provide a password for the user name to initiate communication with the SaaS provider.
Authorization Type
The type of HTTP authorization scheme to use for the Account. The SuccessFactors Application does not use Authorization headers.
If you specify none, no additional authorization scheme will be executed at run time. If you specify a Company ID, Username, and Password, but do not specify a value for Authorization Type, the user credentials are not inserted into an Authorization header. If you enter the username and password, then set the authorization type as basic. Basic refers to HTTP Basic Authentication. This option can be used if the Application requires or supports HTTP Basic authentication using a username and password.
Company ID
The company ID that SuccessFactors provided, when your company registered with them.
Trust store Alias
Select the alias name of the Integration Cloud trust store configuration. The trust store contains trusted certificates used to determine trust for the remote server peer certificates. You can also add a new Truststore from this field.
Hostname verifier
Select a hostname verifier implementation. Guards against man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. The default is org.apache.http.conn.ssl.DefaultHostnameVerifier, which will enable hostname verification. Select org.apache.http.conn.ssl.NoopHostnameVerifier to disable hostname verification.
Keystore Alias
Select the alias for the Integration Cloud key store configuration. This is a text identifier for the keystore alias. A keystore file contains the credentials (private key/signed certificate) that a client needs for authentication. You can also add a new Keystore from this field.
Client key Alias
Alias to the private key in the keystore file specified in the Keystore Alias field. The outbound connections use this key to send client credentials to a remote server. To send the client’s identity to a remote server, you must specify values in both the Keystore Alias and the Client Key Alias fields.
