Steps
Obtain an OAuth SAML-bearer token (or use configured Basic auth) for the SuccessFactors API server matching your data center
Send a GET request to the base entity (e.g. /odata/v2/User or /odata/v2/PerPerson) with $select to limit fields
Use $expand to pull related navigation entities such as EmpEmployment or EmpJob in the same call
Page through results using $top and $skip since default page sizes are capped
Parse the OData v2 JSON/Atom response envelope (results wrapped in a 'd' object)
Known gotchas
This is OData v2, not v4 — query syntax, batch format, and error envelopes differ from v4 APIs
Field-level visibility is gated by SuccessFactors Role-Based Permissions (RBP), not just OAuth scope, so a valid token can still get empty/forbidden fields per-user
