SuccessFactors OData API

Create an API call with request type "OPTIONS" on the header (requestType="OPTIONS").

This request type (requestType="OPTIONS") is currently not supported, therefore the header will not be accepted by the system.

Please use only supported request types in the header to avoid this error, see more information about the header of the API call on the guide section Headers.
