TIL there is a consolidated API reference on Workday Community

Posted 2 months ago

It's a shame that a lot of useful Community information is practically hidden. I just happened to stumble across some kind of integrations Workday APIs hub/guide today that I'd never seen before with a lot of useful information.

API Authentication Methods

This API Authentication Methods page has excellent examples for Workday API methods. It has:

  • SOAP Authentication
    • Basic
    • SAML
    • X509
    • OAuth
  • REST API Authentication
  • RaaS API Authentication
  • Listener Service and Message Queue APIs.
