Connect SAP and yext

Connecting SAP and Yext for a company that uses both could allow for the exchange of business data, such as synchronizing product or location information managed in SAP with digital listings or profiles managed in Yext. Such a connection could help ensure data consistency across enterprise resource planning and digital presence platforms.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between SAP and yext around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect SAP and yext?

A company that uses both SAP and Yext could benefit from connecting the two systems in order to keep business data consistent and up to date across platforms. Without such a connection, staff may need to enter the same information in both systems, increasing the risk of errors and consuming valuable time. This manual duplication could also result in records drifting apart, with changes made in one system not reflected in the other. As a result, teams might base decisions on outdated or inaccurate data, which could affect customer experience, operational efficiency, and reporting accuracy. If a connection were established, the types of data exchanged would depend on the core functions of each system. SAP is widely recognized as an enterprise resource planning platform, often used for managing financials, inventory, and supply chain operations. Yext is known for managing digital knowledge and business listings across directories, maps, and search engines. In practice, the data exchanged could include business location details, contact information, product or service descriptions, and possibly inventory or pricing updates, depending on the needs of the business. However, what can actually be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API, and is determined per situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what SAP and yext make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
