Prerequisites

Please carefully read the following to make sure you are able to complete the setup:

• You are an Admin of your SAP SuccessFactors instance. If you are not an admin, you won't even be able to search for and access the configuration pages that are described later on.
  • Alternatively: Please contact your SuccessFactors Admin and have them take over the integration setup process.
• The OData v2 API is available and enabled on your SuccessFactors instance (it is by default, so this is usually not something to worry about).
