Prerequisites
- An active TechWolf contract.
- A working SAP SuccessFactors tenant.
- A working SAP BTP tenant with SAP Integration Suite provisioned, including the Build Integration Scenarios capability.
Key benefits
- Customer-owned infrastructure: every call to SuccessFactors is performed in the customer’s BTP tenant, giving the customer full visibility via BTP’s Monitor Message Processing view and keeping SuccessFactors credentials inside the customer’s BTP Keystore.
- Single package, multiple data types: one BTP package serves all enabled data types. Enabling or disabling a data type does not require a new install.
- No file infrastructure: no SFTP, no report schedules, no export files (integration center definitions). Data flows from SuccessFactors through the iFlow to TechWolf storage.
How it works
- TechWolf calls the integration over HTTPS to request a run for a given data type.
- The integration acknowledges the request and processes the work asynchronously.
- The process calls SuccessFactors with the entity set and query for the requested data type, paginates through the results, and writes them to TechWolf-managed storage.
- TechWolf ingests the staged data into the SkillEngine API using connectors.
Available data types
The connector supports the following data types. Each data type corresponds to a SuccessFactors OData V2 EntitySet and requires the corresponding SuccessFactors permissions to be granted to the technical user used by the iFlow. These permissions are detailed on the Installation page.Employee Basic Info

Not all data types need to be enabled. Work with TechWolf to select the data
types that are relevant for your use case. SuccessFactors permissions only
need to be granted for the data types you choose to enable.
