To connect Workday to LiveRem, you need to set up a URL, Client ID and Client Secret via Workday's system.
Here’s a step-by-step guide:
Setting up the LiveRem connection in Workday
Step 1: Create API Client in Workday
The Workday portal allows you to register the required API client based on the category and locate all the necessary information for setting up the Workday REST OAuth2 Account.
Log into the Workday portal with valid Workday Org admin credentials.
From the Search menu for the Workday categories, select Register API Client and click Register.
Specify the fields for the new client:
Field | Description |
Client Name | LiveRem |
Client Grant Type | Authorization Code Grant |
Support Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) | No |
Enforce 60 Minute Access Token Expiry | Yes |
x509 Certificate | (empty) |
Access Token Type | Bearer |
Redirection URL | |
Allow Integration messages |
|
Refresh Token Timeout (in days) |
|
Non-Expiring Refresh Tokens | Yes |
Grant Administrative Consent | Yes |
Disabled | No |
Scope (Functional Areas) | Adaptive Planning Benefits Core Compensation Organizations and Roles Performance Enablement Staffing Worker Profile and Skills System Worker Profile and Skills Contact Information Core Payroll Personal Data |
Include Workday Owned Scope | Yes |
Locked Out due to Excessive Failed Signon Attempts | No |
Restricted to IP Ranges | (empty) |
4. Click on Done.
Step 2: After the API client is registered in the Workday portal, note down the following that are automatically generated to be used in the Workday REST OAuth2 Account.
Client ID
Client Secret
Authorization Endpoint
Token Endpoint
Step 3: Click on the Authorize button in the Workday OAuth2 Account. You will be redirected to the Workday Portal. Provide valid login credentials and click Allow.
We recommend you use the Admin login credentials (who initially created the API) for authorization. The required permissions are granted only to the admin who creates the application.
The OAuth2 credentials generated in the Register API Client Admin console grants you only GET permission for Workday services and OpenAPI paths.
While registering an API client, when you encounter Insufficient permission or such permission-related errors, we recommend that you contact the Workday Org Admin to resolve the POST permission issue.
