Symptom
Is there a way to connect SAP SuccessFactors Learning as a source in the SAP Datasphere?
Environment
- SAP Datasphere
- SAP SuccessFactors Learning
Resolution
Consuming Learning data in SAP Datasphere via SuccessFactors connection or OData connection is currently not supported, since Learning OData API's are built for transactional purposes and not as bulk extraction tools.
SAP offers this option with the LMS, but typically requires a professional services engagement just to support configuration and consulting on the data tables.
The Data Services extracts will post the files to a configured SFTP where they can be picked up and consumed into any SAP Datasphere preferable option, whether inside SAP or externally.
Also there is/are ongoing campaign(s) for this enhancement request on the SAP Customer Influence Portal for SAP Datasphere.
