SF API Endpoint to create a candidate ?

[Former Member]

I want to ask is there somewhere documentation or some API Endpoint to create a candidate. I enclose a picture of where exactly ask.

I apologize if the discussion is not in the right section.

Hi Krasimir,

the OData APIs in Recrutiting are quite new. I tried to enable the Candidate OData API in my instance but failed so far, but I could read JobApplications using OData:

https://salesdemo4.successfactors.com/odata/v2/JobApplication?$top=1

You will find the Recruiting API Documentation as part of the OData Reference Guide available here: http://help.sap.com/hr_api/

If you use the above URL to access JobApplication OData API you have to provide a user and a company for the username like this: <username>@<company>, e.g. admin@ACE123 and a password.

I will follow up with recruiting PM and Platform engineering to figure out if Candidate API is not available yet in OData. It might be the case the Candidates are accessible via SF direct APIs (SOAP) only at this point in time (see SF API Programmers Guide on help.sap.com/hr_api/ ).

Best regards

Hi Krasimir,

I got the confirmation that with b1505 the Candiate is not avialble in OData. It will be release in upcomming releases.

Apologies, but I never managed to find how this should be done through OData API
