Hi Team,
I am getting issue in integrating SuccessFactors with SailPoint ISC, There is Issue on Authentication itself. We have to use Oauth 2.0 authentication. Can Anybody support in establishing the connectivity, all the pre-requisites fulfilled but getting below error.
If OAuth 2.0 works in Postman but fails in SAP SuccessFactors integration with SailPoint ISC, the issue is usually one of these:
Incorrect Token URL (must be the SuccessFactors OAuth endpoint)
Wrong Client ID/Secret
Missing or incorrect Company ID in the request
Grant type mismatch (client_credentials vs SAML2_BEARER_ASSERTION)
Required scopes not assigned to the API user
URL encoding issues in the token request

Grant type is SAML Bearer Assertion we are using for connecting to SuccessFactors

We use the SAP SuccessFactors connector instead of Web Services SaaS connector, I was having issues authenticating with Web Services SaaS because of differing IDP and TokenURLs. Perhaps that was an issue on my part, not understanding how to use the web-services connector in detail.
