Learn how to connect Workday with Staffbase Email.

Staffbase Email

After you complete the preparation in Workday, you can proceed to configure the integration in the Staffbase Studio by establishing a connection between your Workday instance and the Staffbase Studio.

Using the Workday integration, you can only sync contacts.

  • You have an administrator role in the Staffbase Studio.
  • You have set up the required profile fields for your Staffbase platform.
  • You have created the following in Workday during the integration preparation process:
    • Workday custom report URL
    • Workday username and password of the integration system user
  • You have added the employee ID to the custom report field.
  • You have configured the preferred language locale in the Workday report if you want to sync the users’ preferred language.

To create the connection, you need to provide the details of the report and the integration system user you created in Workday.

  1. In the Studio, navigate to Users > Integrations.
  2. Click New Integration.
    The Connect Integrations page opens.
  1. Under Choose the integration source, select Workday.
  2. Paste the following details you copied from Workday in the respective fields:
    • Workday Report URL
    • Workday Username
    • Workday Password
  3. Click Next.
    You have successfully connected your Workday instance to Staffbase Email, and you can now map the fields.

After connecting to Workday, you can map the Workday fields to the corresponding profile fields in Staffbase Email. The Map Fields page displays all imported fields from Workday, allowing you to select the matching Staffbase profile fields from the dropdowns.

Ensure that you correctly map the External ID, which helps to identify each contact in this integration. Also, you need to map only the fields that you want to sync; others can be left out.
  1. In the Map Fields page, select a profile field from the dropdown corresponding to the imported field you want to map.
  2. Repeat the step until you have mapped all the fields you want to import.
  3. Click Next.
    You have successfully mapped the Workday fields to the corresponding profile fields in Staffbase Email.
The duration of the import process varies depending on the amount of user data in your Workday tenant.

After the initial full sync, the sync switches to an automatic sync cycle. This ensures your data stays up to date by automatically syncing any changes made in Workday on a daily basis.
