Where to found information about SuccessFactors oData User API ?

[sp]

Hello,

SuccessFactors Employee Central API offers a lot of information about API but I can't found details about the oData User API.

As in this post, User API is the starting point of the employee life cycle, so information will help.

Best regards,

Dear Stéphane,

I am not sure about what from User you are looking for, but in the reference guide below, you can find for example the chapter 18.1.1 User entity upsert, but also more user entity, so I do recommend you to take a look if you didn't yet).

Thank's Karen,

Insert User is a good starting point.

But this API give a lot of information after this first step and after many changes in the life cycle of the employee.

There is an attribute "empId" that seems to link User each other, where can I found information about it ?

Dear Stéphane,

Probably you are looking to the business key, so the below link can help (check chapter 1.13.2 Business keys).

Thanks Karen,

I think that, User as a Platform Object have a complex relation with Employment Object page (see page 24 and next).
