### Example
|
||||
|
||||
import requests
|
||||
import sf_auth
|
||||
``` python
|
||||
#!/usr/bin/env python
|
||||
|
||||
sf_url = 'https://your.base.url.com'
|
||||
sf_company_id = 'your-company-id'
|
||||
sf_oauth_client_id = 'OAUTH-CLIENT-ID'
|
||||
sf_admin_user = 'your_admin_user'
|
||||
sf_saml_private_key = 'your_app_private_key.pem'
|
||||
template_file = 'sf_saml_template.xml'
|
||||
import requests
|
||||
import successfactors_auth
|
||||
|
||||
token = sf_auth.auth(sf_url, sf_company_id, sf_oauth_client_id, sf_admin_user, sf_saml_private_key, sf_saml_template)
|
||||
sf_url = 'https://your.base.url.com'
|
||||
sf_company_id = 'your-company-id'
|
||||
sf_oauth_client_id = 'your_app_client_id'
|
||||
sf_admin_user = 'your_admin_user'
|
||||
sf_saml_private_key = 'your_app_private_key.pem'
|
||||
|
||||
headers = {
|
||||
"Accept: application/json",
|
||||
f"Authorization: {token}"
|
||||
}
|
||||
token = successfactors_auth.auth(
|
||||
sf_url,
|
||||
sf_company_id,
|
||||
sf_oauth_client_id,
|
||||
sf_admin_user,
|
||||
sf_saml_private_key,
|
||||
sf_saml_template
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
request = requests.get(f"{sf_url}/User", headers=headers)
|
||||
headers = {
|
||||
"Accept: application/json",
|
||||
f"Authorization: {token}"
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
print(request.json())
|
||||
```
|
||||
request = requests.get(f"{sf_url}/User", headers=headers)
|
||||
user = request.json()
|
||||
|

|
||||
## Background
|
||||
|
||||
I wrote this module because I was forced to deal with the *horrific* SAP SuccessFactors API at my job, and I wanted to make sure other devs/sysadmins wouldn't have to feel the pain that I felt.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you get authenticated, getting the information you want is a whole new level of suffering. I hope to publish some more examples in the form of a blog post or docs in this repo.
