HCI: SuccessFactors Adapter, Credential name

[BobvanR]

Hi all,

I am trying to set up my trial HCI to my demo SF Employee Central. When entering the details for my SF Adapter, under Channel --> Adapter specific, there is the need to enter "Credential name" (mandatory). When hovering over the field it says: "Credential name you use to connect to SuccessFactors database".

Where can I find this credential? I tried a lot, but the error messages that comes reads:" com.sap.it.rt.adapter.sfsf.core.exception.SfsfException: The credentials could not be retrieved for alias: *user* "

I hope anybody can point me in the right direction.

ps. I have added my user for SF to the SFapi en SFapiuser group.

Thank you Nabendu Sen! This got me in the right direction. I got the credentials at the demo so I did not now this was a pre-defined name.

When I did all the steps in Eclipse it worked (and I was able to see the Credential name for the demo excercise!).
