Hi Mahesh,

As Christian suggested, you can check the documentation.

Basically the Application URL is the URL of the extension application you are hosting on HANA Cloud Platform (HCP) that will use this client to authenticated to SuccessFactors ssytem.

You need to specify the following URL if you are manually configuring the integration between SuccessFactors and HCP and you want to create an OAuth2 Client for HANA Cloud Portal ->

https://cloudnwcportal-<your_account_id>.<landscape_host>/ (f.e. https://cloudnwcportal-abcd.hana.ondemand.com).

Incase you are registering the OAuth client for an extension application, then you need to get the app URL from the HCP Cockpit -> JAVA Applications -> Click on the desired app -> copy the URL from Application URLs section (see screenshot below).

Hope that helps.

Hi Stanimir,

Is it the case that we can only enable oAuth on SuccessFactors for an HCP application? What if we're accessing the SF APIs using, say a desktop application. Is that not possible?

Thanks and regards,

Hi Yash,

Well, as prerequisite for using OAuth SAML Bearer Assertion flow, you need to have an established trust between the SAP SuccessFactors and the other system. For your example, with a desktop application, it should not be possible since the desktop system cannot be trusted.
