  1. In the sample Pipeline, data of three new users, which is to be written to the SuccessFactors Data Center, is created in JSON format using the the JSON Generator Snap.

  3. The input schema is provided by the SuccessFactors Create Snap. The configuration of the Snap is shown below.


  4. Successful validation of the Pipeline shows details of the new users in the SuccessFactors Create Snap's output preview:


  5. Finally, an XML Formatter and a File Writer Snap is added downstream to format and save the returned data in a new file. In the image below, the output is written to the SuccessFactors_Create_User.xml file.


  6. You can view the newly-created file in the target directory using SSH.
