What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Workday integration via Apideck's Accounting, HRIS, ATS unified API — same methods work across every connector in Accounting, HRIS, ATS, switch by changing `serviceId`. Use when the user wants to read, write, or reconcile invoices, bills, payments, ledger accounts, and journal entries in Workday. Routes through Apideck with serviceId "workday".

Workday (via Apideck)

Access Workday through Apideck's Accounting, HRIS, ATS unified API — one of 34 Accounting connectors that share the same method surface. Code you write here ports to Access Financials, Acumatica, banqUP and 30 other Accounting connectors by changing a single serviceId string. Apideck handles auth, pagination, rate limiting, and retries so you don't write per-tenant Workday plumbing.

Quick facts

When to use this skill

Activate this skill when the user explicitly wants to work with Workday — for example, "create an invoice in Workday" or "reconcile payments in Workday". This skill teaches the agent:

  1. Which Apideck unified API covers Workday (Accounting, HRIS, ATS)
  2. The correct serviceId to pass on every call (workday)
  3. Workday-specific auth and coverage caveats

For the full method surface (parameters, pagination, filtering), use your language SDK skill:

For the raw OpenAPI spec:

Minimal example (TypeScript)

import { Apideck } from "@apideck/unify";

const apideck = new Apideck({
  apiKey: process.env.APIDECK_API_KEY,
  appId: process.env.APIDECK_APP_ID,
  consumerId: "your-consumer-id",
});

// List invoices in Workday
const { data } = await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({
  serviceId: "workday",
});

Portable across 34 Accounting connectors

The Apideck Accounting unified API exposes the same methods for every connector in its catalog. Switching from Workday to another Accounting connector is a one-string change — no rewrite, no new SDK.

// Today — Workday
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "workday" });

// Tomorrow — same code, different connector
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "access-financials" });
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "acumatica" });

This is the compounding advantage of using Apideck over integrating Workday directly: code against the unified Accounting API once, gain access to every connector in it. New connectors Apideck adds become available to your app without code changes.

Workday via Apideck

Workday is an enterprise cloud platform covering HCM, Finance, and Recruiting. Apideck exposes Workday across HRIS, Accounting, and ATS unified APIs — one of only a handful of multi-API connectors in the catalog.

Unified API coverage (verified via Connector API)

Apideck APIResources mappedNotes
Accounting20 resourcesinvoices, bills, journal entries, GL accounts, customers, suppliers, more
HRIS3 resourcesemployees + org hierarchy
ATS2 resourcesjob requisitions + applicants (limited)

Always verify current coverage with GET /connector/connectors/workday.

Example: list employees (HRIS)

const { data } = await apideck.hris.employees.list({
  serviceId: "workday",
});

Example: list invoices (Accounting)

const { data } = await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({
  serviceId: "workday",
});

Example: list job requisitions (ATS)

const { data } = await apideck.ats.jobs.list({
  serviceId: "workday",
});

Auth notes

  • Type: OAuth 2.0, managed by Apideck Vault
  • Tenant binding: each connection is bound to one Workday tenant. Module access (HCM, Financials, Recruiting) depends on what's licensed in that tenant — a Financials-only tenant won't expose HRIS or ATS data regardless of Apideck setup.
  • Integration System User (ISU) required: Workday access goes through a dedicated ISU account with scoped permissions, set up by the customer's Workday admin. Apideck cannot provision this; the user must coordinate with their admin before connection will work. Expect 1–2 weeks lead time for enterprise Workday onboarding.

Verifying coverage

Not every Accounting operation is supported by every connector. Always verify before assuming a method works:

curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/connector/connectors/workday' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
  -H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}"

See apideck-connector-coverage for patterns around UnsupportedOperationError and connector-specific fallbacks.

Escape hatch: Proxy API

When an endpoint isn't covered by the Accounting unified API, use Apideck's Proxy to call Workday directly — Apideck injects auth headers and handles token refresh. Set x-apideck-downstream-url to the target endpoint on Workday's own API:

curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/proxy' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
  -H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}" \
  -H "x-apideck-consumer-id: ${CONSUMER_ID}" \
  -H "x-apideck-service-id: workday" \
  -H "x-apideck-downstream-url: <target endpoint on Workday>" \
  -H "x-apideck-downstream-method: GET"

See Workday's API docs for available endpoints.
