This document describes the standard data input integration from SAP SuccessFactors to TechWolf. The integration synchronizes employee skill profiles (called employee growth portfolios in the SAP SuccessFactors Talent Intelligence Hub) between the two systems. This document contains details on the configuration and the deployment of the integration in the customer’s SAP SuccessFactors environment. The intended audience for this document is the integration implementer.

Integration Overview

Functional Objective

Key benefits:

  • TechWolf synchronizes employee skill profiles across all relevant systems, harmonizing skills between them.
  • The accurate and up-to-date skills data in SAP SuccessFactors that originates from TechWolf can be used for downstream purposes in the system such as Opportunity Marketplace.

Data Flow

The Skill Sync integration is a two-way data flow between SAP SuccessFactors and the TechWolf SkillEngine API. This allows the two systems to have up-to-date, in-sync and accurate skill profiles for employees. For this integration to work, part of the TechWolf skill vocabulary must be uploaded to the Attributes Library of the SAP SF Talent Intelligence Hub. By doing this, TechWolf skills can be displayed and used everywhere in SAP SuccessFactors. Whenever employee skills are validated or rejected in the SkillEngine API, this information is immediately forwarded to the Talent Intelligence Hub in SAP SuccessFactors. Changes that are made in the SAP SF Talent Intelligence Hub are reflected back to the TechWolf SkillEngine API on a regular basis (daily).
