Overview
Use this Account type to connect Workday Snaps with data sources that use Workday Accounts.
Prerequisites
- Write permissions for the Project for which you are creating the Account.
- Valid Username, Password, Tenant, Host and Version received from Workday for using the Account.
Host, Version and Tenant can be found out by following any of these simple steps:
- You can first contact your Workday Security Administrator or your Implementation Partner.
- If you have access to your Workday Customer Portal, you can get information from there.
- If you have access to the Workday Community, you can access the Workday Data Centers page from where its three data centers are listed. (Ashburn, Portland and Dublin). You need Workday Community access for this.
- Another easy way of finding this is through a RAAS (Report As A Service)
- Create an Advanced Report that is Web Service Enabled.
- From the Related Actions for the Report, click on Web Services > View URLs.
- Copy the Workday XML URL. It contains the host-prefix, tenant name, and user name and follows the syntax:
https://<host-prefix>.workday.com/ccx/service/customreport2/<tenant_name>/<username>/CR_RAAS_SNAPLOGIC_READ_DEMO.
- Latest Version can be found from the Public Workday Web Services (WWS).
