Field Name

Field Type

Description


Label*


String

Specify the name of the Snap. You can modify this text to indicate what the Snap does. This is especially useful if you have more than one Workday Read Snap in your Pipeline.

Default ValueWorkday Read
Example: Get Cost Center List from Workday

Timeout*



Integer

Specify the timeout value for each Workday SOAP request. The value of 0 means no timeout. Because Workday Read supports Workday SOAP pagination, multiple SOAP requests can occur for one execution. Consequently, the timeout can be less than the time it takes to complete writing documents to the output view. 

Default value: 60 
Example: 0

Service*


String/Expression/Suggestion

Specify the name of the web service that you want to use. 

Default value: [None]
ExampleStaffing

Object*


String/Expression/Suggestion

Specify the name of the object from which you want to retrieve data. Select the object from the list of objects returned by the web service you selected in the Service field. For example, if you selected the Payroll Service, the Object field displays all the objects that were retrievable under the Payroll service from Workday.

Default value: [None] 
ExampleHuman_Resources-Get_Job_Profiles

Outputs


Use this field set to indicate the data you want the query to return from Workday. Add each output in a separate row. Click Add  to add rows. This field set contains Path and Value fields.
Info

The Outputs fieldset limits the kind and amount of information returned by your query. Excluding unnecessary fields increases Snap throughput and simplifies downstream Snap pipeline development.

See Workday Web Services Directory for additional information on the Workday Web Services API.


PathString/Suggestion

Specify the output to be returned by the request. These work with the include and exclude fields defined by Workday in the request's Response_Group section and include or exclude fields in the output document. For example, the command 'Response_Group.Include_Worker_Documents' includes worker document details in the output.

Default Value: [None]
ExampleInclude_Reference

ValueDropdown list

Specify the value to be set for the path on the request.

Default ValueTrue
Example: False

Simplified output


Checkbox

Select this checkbox to simplify output documents by removing Workday namespace attributes from key names. It also converts the nested ID collection to a simple map data. You can use a JSON Splitter Snap to further simplify the output document data structure.

If not selected, the Snap produces an output in a tree structure with nested levels of information.

Default Value: Not selected

Pass-through on no lookup match

Checkbox

Select this checkbox to allow the input document to pass through to the output view when  there are no records matching an input document. Else, the input document is written to the error view as an error condition.

Default ValueNot selected

Page NumberInteger/Expression

Enter the specific page number from which you you want to retrieve data. Retain 0 to retrieve data from all the pages.

Default Value: 0
Example: 2

Page SizeInteger/Expression

Specify the number of records to fetch per page.

Default Value: 100
Example:100

Info

This Snap submits a SOAP request to Workday with an output page size and converts the Workday SOAP XML response to JSON in the output view. If the Snap page setting is 0, and the Workday SOAP response indicates that more pages of data are available; it submits additional SOAP requests, collects all the pages of data, and transforms them into JSON.


Multi-threadedCheckbox

Select this checkbox to enable the Snap to expedite reading the requests by using multiple threads.

Note

This feature may yield inconsistent results.


Max Pool SizeInteger

Activates when Multi-threaded checkbox is selected.

Specify the value for pool size to control the maximum number of threads in the pool for the instance.

Default Value: 10
Example: 5

Number of Retries Integer

Enter the integer value to specify the number of attempts the snap should make to perform the selected operation in case of connection failure or timeout.

Minimum value: 0

Default Value: 0
Example: 3

Retry Interval (seconds)Integer

Enter the time interval in seconds between retry attempts.

Minimum value: 1

Default Value: 1
Example: 3

May 9, 2020 

Stable

Upgraded with the latest SnapLogic Platform release.

4.20 Patch 

workday8817

Apr 27, 2020 

Latest

Fixes the Workday Write Snap that ignores the Import Synchronized check box selection while importing object data. The Snap now:

  • Waits for the current import request to complete, whether successfully or with error, before initiating the next import request.

  • Provides accurate real-time status of the request to downstream Snaps.   

Existing Pipelines using this Snap may experience longer execution times due to the synchronous behavior. However, you no longer need to use an additional Snap to capture and pass on the request status to downstream Snaps.
