Connect to SAP SuccessFactors using TimeXtender OData data source

SAP SuccessFactors uses an OData interface to extract data.

Adding the TimeXtender OData data source

1. Create a new TimeXtender OData data source connection
2. Add the Base URL. For more information please see SAP’s OData documentation. Some examples of what the Base URL should look like are provided below:
   https://api10preview.sapsf.com/odata/v2/
   https://api10preview.sapsf.com/odatav4/ 
3. Choose an authentication method and enter the credentials. It is possible to use Basic authentication with the user formatted as <username>@<SF_tenant/company_code> as documented in SAP Basic authentication documentation. Alternatively, select OAuth2 as the authentication method, and enter the Client ID and Client Secret as documented in SAP’s OAuth2 documentation.
4. On each endpoint add Table flattening
5. Paste the below XSLT into the transformation section

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
   <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
                   xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
                   xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata"
                   xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices"
                   xmlns:tx_tns_1="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
                   xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
                   xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" >
     <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />
   
     <xsl:template match="/">
       <tx_root>
         <xsl:element name="{//tx_tns_1:title}">
           <xsl:apply-templates select="/tx_tns_1:feed/tx_tns_1:entry/tx_tns_1:content/m:properties" mode="rows"/>
         </xsl:element>
       </tx_root>
     </xsl:template>
     <xsl:template match="/tx_tns_1:feed/tx_tns_1:entry/tx_tns_1:content/m:properties" mode="rows">
       <xsl:element name="{//tx_tns_1:title}">
         <xsl:for-each select="../../*[not(self::tx_tns_1:content or self::tx_tns_1:link)]">
           <xsl:element name="entry_{name()}">
             <!-- <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> -->
             <xsl:value-of select="."/>
           </xsl:element>
         </xsl:for-each>
   
         <!-- copy all elements -->
         <xsl:for-each select="*">
           <xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
             <!-- <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> -->
             <xsl:value-of select="."/>
           </xsl:element>
   
         </xsl:for-each>
   
         <!-- <xsl:for-each select="../../tx_tns_1:link">
              <xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
              <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
              <xsl:value-of select="."/>
              </xsl:element>
              </xsl:for-each> -->
          </xsl:element>
     </xsl:template>
   </xsl:stylesheet>

6. Give the flattened table the same name that the non-transformed endpoint has
