SAP Open Connectors

Sage CRM Events

SAP Open Connectors supports events via polling or webhooks depending on the API provider. For more information about our Events framework, see Events Overview.

Supported Events and Resources

SAP Open Connectors supports polling events for Sage CRM. After receiving an event, SAP Open Connectors standardizes the payload and sends an event to the configured callback URL of your authenticated connector instance.

You can set up polling for the events resource. You can also copy the events configuration to poll other resources. See Configure Polling Through API for more information.

Note: Unless configured for a specific time zone, polling occurs in UTC.

Configure Polling Through the UI

To configure polling through the UI, follow the same steps to authenticate a connector instance, and then turn on events. Select the resources to poll, and then click Create Instance. For more information, see Authenticate an Connector Instance with Events (UI) or the connector-specific authentication topic.

Configure Polling Through API

Use the /instances endpoint to authenticate with Sage CRM and create a connector instance with polling enabled.

Note: The endpoint returns a connector instance token and id upon successful completion. Retain the token and id for all subsequent requests involving this connector instance.

To authenticate a connector instance with polling:

  1. Construct a JSON body as shown below (see Parameters):

    {
      "element":{
        "key":"sagecrm"
      },
      "configuration":{
        "subdomain": "sagecrm-0.<YOUR_TENANT>.com",
        "username": "<YOUR_USERNAME>",
        "password": "<YOUR_PASSWORD>",
