Symptom
- Attribute mapping with multiple tags was imported successfully using AttributeTagMappings Import in Integration Center, but only one tag is associated with each attribute in the Talent Intelligence Hub (TIH), while other tag mappings do not apply.
- Manual addition of multiple tags to a single attribute is possible via the Manage Talent Intelligence Hub UI, but the same does not happen via Import.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Talent Intelligence Hub
Reproducing the Issue
- Prepare an AttributeTagMapping Import file to associate a attribute with multiple tags.
- Successfully import the template using an IC Job.
- Verify the imported data in the Talent Intelligence Hub (TIH).
- Observe that only one tag is associated with each competency, while other tag mappings did not apply.
Cause
The confirmed behavior for the system is as follows:
- For mapping multiple tags to an attribute, the tags must be imported as comma-separated values.
- The system does not follow incremental load but works as a purge-type import. This means that whenever tag mappings for an attribute are imported, all tags to be mapped to that attribute must be included in the import file, separated by commas.
Resolution
- Prepare the AttributeTagMapping Import template with the following format:
- One competency/skill per row.
- Multiple tag mappings separated by commas (with or without spaces).
- Ensure that the import file includes all tags associated with the attribute during each update.
As sample the CSV file should have the format as below (Note: Remove the double quotes in tagExternalIds when converting to CSV):libraryExternalId,tagExternalIds Attribute01,"Critical,Core" Attribute02,"Core" MAttribute03,"103-1422,103-1414"
- Import the updated template using an IC Job.
- Verify the imported data in the Talent Intelligence Hub (TIH).
- For future updates, re-import the template with all existing tag-competency mappings along with any new tag-competency mappings.
