Workday Integration Cloud ConnectWith Workday as the core system-of-record, companies are faced with the
need to connect to multiple third-party systems and applications to satisfy
key business functions and processes. Workday provides a variety of
infrastructure and tools designed to address these integration challenges,
including a robust web services-based API and the Integration Cloud Platform.
Integration Cloud Connect rounds out Workday’s integration solutions.
Integration Cloud Connect represents a portfolio of integration products designed to complement Workday core business
applications by providing pre-built connections to third-party applications and services. Each integration is deployed in
the Workday Cloud, which in turn gives you all the benefits of a fully hosted and managed application. Customers can
enjoy integration solutions that are versioned and stable, as well as kept up to date with the latest infrastructure, tooling,
application changes, and vendor changes (where applicable).
Integration Cloud Connect solutions fall under two main categories: Packaged Integration and Connectors.
Packaged Integrations: A packaged integration is a fully designed end-to-end integration to a specific named third-
party application or service. When a packaged integration is deployed, the specific business functions between the
two systems are configured with no additional coding required. The packaged integrations are managed just like any
other Workday application, and are kept up to date with the same overall Workday update schedule. Updates include
reacting to Workday core applications—for compliance as well as additional application features—as well as updates
to the latest tooling and infrastructure. In addition, Workday works with the third-party partner to manage a joint
roadmap to ensure the integration is kept up to date as the third-party application evolves.
Workday Integration Cloud Connect consists of a growing number of pre-built, packaged integrations and connectors to complementary solutions that are 100% built, maintained, and supported by Workday.
• Select from a growing ecosystem of packaged integrations and connectors
• Rely on Workday to support, maintain, and evolve these integrations over time
•Monitor and manage these integrations in the Workday UI
• Eliminate the need to own or manage any on-premise integration middleware or servers
• Redeploy IT to focus on more strategic activities
Connectors: A packaged connector is a pre-built
integration template. While not always end-to-end
like packaged integrations, connectors address
the majority of the integration effort required to
connect to third-party end points. Connectors can
often be leveraged as delivered, or they can also
provide the foundation for further configuration
leveraging Workday’s Integration Cloud Platform.
The following list details the current Cloud Connect
portfolio as of Workday 13. Please check with your sales
representative for more details.
Cloud Connect for HCM
• Worker Sync Connector – This connector is focused
on identifying Worker demographic changes and
producing output for a third-party system. The
connector allows you to configure the specific data
in which you’re interested, and can produce the
data in either CSV or XML formats.
• Directory Service Connector – This connector is
similar to the Worker Sync Connector, but it’s
designed to connect to a third-party directory
server. This connector includes XML, CSV, and LDIF
formats, and contains specific features to connect
to both LDAP and Active Directory servers.
• MrTed TalentLink Packaged Integration – This
integration complements Workday HCM with
recruiting functionality provided by MrTed
TalentLink. From Workday, information about
workers, job positions, and job requisitions are
sent to MrTed Talentlink to initiate the recruiting
process. This information is kept up to date as
changes are made in Workday. Once an applicant
accepts a position, the information is then updated
in Workday, where the applicant and employee are
created, the employee’s talent profile is updated,
and the HIRE business process is initiated.
• Plateau Packaged Integration – This integration
complements Workday HCM with learning
management functionality provided by Plateau.
From Workday, information about workers, job
profiles, and organization structures are sent to
Plateau and used to target learning assignments.
Once a worker completes training or certifications
in Plateau, the Workday talent profile is updated to
reflect this information where it is then available
within Workday HCM.

or adjustments. Further, Payroll Interface can be
