Saviynt SFTP Server Query

[PeterRaja]

Hi All,

We are trying to get the input files from HR application to Saviynt and below is the SFTP recommendation from customer.

SuccessFactors : This is Source system(HR) where the Employee data gets store.

 SAP CPI : This is Cloud middleware tool which the required data poll from HR system based on the Frequency and transform the data and interface the files to Saviynt SFTP. The file can be encrypted using PGP key for more secure. The authentication method can be Basic Authentication or Client Certificate.

Saviynt SFTP : Once the file is reached to Saviynt SFTP from SAP CPI, then these should be uploaded into Saviynt Server. This part will be taken care by Saviynt Team.

Is it possible for Saviynt ?

Regards,

Peter

Hello @PeterRaja,

Currenlty, there are two options available:

1. Utilize the SFTP connector (which require two separate jobs).
2. Consume the REST API to upload the file.
The preferable option is the REST API, as it allows you to have control over when to push the file, and only one job is required for schema import.

Thanks,

Hi Sudeshjaiswal,

REST API is not an option for us to proceed.

Client does not have SFTP server.

How can we proceed ?

Regards,

Peter

@sudeshjaiswal @Rajesh-R : Out of the context question, Does API has any limitation on file size like SFTP connector(10MB for download)?

@PeterRaja  -

• The customer doesn't need a SFTP server to call saviynt APIs.
• When the file is extracted, it can be directly pushed to Saviynt by calling Saviynt APIs.
• If the client does not have a SFTP server, the only way to push the file to Saviynt is via Saviynt APIs.

@sk 

There is a guardrail on the file Size of 10 MB.

@Rajesh-R : If I understand your reply correctly, You are saying that even if we use API method to upload the file instead of SFTP same 10 MB limitation is applicable?

[Rajesh-R]

@sk  Yes, even if we use API method to upload the file instead of SFTP same 10 MB limitation is applicable

[sk]

@Rajesh-R : Thank you for confirmation. Is there possibility to increase this limit on request basis or it is the hard limit?

[Rajesh-R]

@sk I suppose this is a hard limit now.
