OData Adapter vs SF Adapter

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Under Successfactor adapter there are 2 message protocols available i.e. SOAP and REST. Can any one please clarify when to choose SOAP and when to choose REST

Also, please suggest when/how to choose between Successfactor adapter and OData adapter

Hello Naresh,

You should go with SOAP protocol whenever you want to fetch the data from SFAPI Entities of SuccesFactors[ For Ex CompoundEmployee ].Similarly you must go with Rest or OData protocols if you are fetching the data based on OData Entities of SuccessFactors.

If you are very new to SF integration below blog will give more insight on the same.
