Workday Connector

[spdstan]

Is there a Workday connector in Designer? I thought I saw a visual at Inspire that had a prebuilt connector but I cannot seem to find the connector anywhere.

Hey @spdstan,

I'm not sure about which connector they showed at inspire but there is a solved thread here https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/API-Connection-to-Workday-API/td-p/135...

on connecting to workday from Alteryx.

Thanks, @IraWatt. I am trying to avoid building an API connector in this case hoping there was already a connector built.

I agree after looking through the community gallery https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Community-Gallery/ct-p/Community-gallery it doesn't look like its been uploaded by anyone to the community.

Hi @spdstan - You can use 3rd party solutions: https://www.cdata.com/kb/tech/workday-odbc-alteryx.rst

@ArtApa is correct - there is no out of the box Workday connector currently. Cdata's connector is an ODBC connector and you will need to have a username/password to connect in. You can use the Download tool (if you have a username/password) to access Workday via API as well. I don't remember seeing any Workday connectors at Inspire.
