Register a Client Application in SuccessFactors

Register SailPoint with the managed system so it can access the SuccessFactors REST APIs. This process involves registering a client application, generating a certificate, and obtaining Client ID attributes. For detailed information about registering a client application in SuccessFactors, refer to Registering Your Client Application in the SAP Help Portal.

  1. Register your client application with SuccessFactors by going to Admin Center > Company Settings > Manage OAuth2 Client Applications > Register Client Application.

  2. Provide information for the mandatory fields such as Application Name, Description, and Application URL.

    For example, the application name value can be "SailPointApp" and the URL can be https://SailPointApp.

  3. Select Generate X.509 Certificate and enter the values as required.

  4. Select Generate and download a copy of the X.509 certificate on your computer.

  5. Open the X.509 certificate file. The X.509 certificate includes:

    • Private key

    • Certificate

  6. Copy the characters between —BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY— and —END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY— and paste it in the Private Key field. This private key is used as a configuration parameter for test connection operations.

  7. Select Register.

Note
Save the generated API Key. The key is used as the Client ID configuration parameter for test connection operations.
