The parameter which references the API endpoint in the iFlow configuation is incorrect.

Check if the API endpoint was properly provided in the iFlow configuration.

To do so, follow the steps below on CPI. Note that, the iFlow used in this example was "SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central to ERP Employee Data and Organizational Assignment":

1. Go to the configuration screen of the iFlow:
1. Click on the Pencil button on the left side menu
2. Search for the integration package and open it
3. Go to the artifacts tab
4. In the "Actions" option related to the artifact, select the Configure option
2. Go to the "Receiver" tab
3. Check if the API endpoint is properly set in the "Address" field
   
   

Note that, in this "Address" parameter, you need to provide the API endpoint with no suffixes. This means that, if you want to reach the API production server located on DC2, for example, the correct API endpoint would be api2.successfactors.eu, and nothing else.

For more information on which API endpoint you need to access, check the KBA below:
