AFAS Profit
AFAS Profit — Dutch ERP and HR: read any published GetConnector, list what is available, and inspect a connector's metadata. Token auth with AFAS's base64-wrapped XML token.
Setup
AFAS exposes nothing until somebody publishes a GetConnector. That is the whole model, and it is why this adapter takes the connector name as a parameter rather than hard-coding entity paths.
- In AFAS open Algemeen → Beheer → App connector and create an app connector for the integration.
- Add the GetConnectors the agent should reach. The typed tools use the standard
Profit_Debtor,Profit_Debtor_Invoices(outstanding debtor items) andProfit_Employees; anything else, including your own custom GetConnectors, goes throughafas_profit_get_data. A GetConnector that has not been added to the app connector does not exist as far as the API is concerned.
