3618405 - Logic for password migration from SuccessFactors to IAS

• What is the logic for the password migration from SuccessFactors to IAS which is mentioned in 2950998 - How to migrate User Passwords from SAP SuccessFactors to Identity Authentication

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

When migrating passwords from SF to IAS, it does not involve physically importing the SF password data into IAS.

Instead, during the user's first login to IAS (where IAS has not yet set a password for the user), IAS will send the password entered by the user to SF via a user-validation API.

SF will then validate whether the password is correct and send the result back to IAS.

If SF confirms the password is correct, IAS will allow the user to log in.

After the user successfully logs in to IAS for the first time, IAS will prompt the user to set a dedicated IAS password.

This newly set password will not affect the original password stored in SF's database.
