You are making CompoundEmployee/SFAPI calls to SuccessFactors but an error is being thrown: "Invalid SFAPI session"
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
Cause
The session ID timed out after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Resolution
Authentication is established through the Login operation. A successful login returns a session ID as an HTTP Cookie.
This cookie must be passed back to all subsequent API requests with less then 10 minutes of inactivity between the requests, in order to authenticate.
