This interface between Workday and Avigilon Alta is implemented through a web service that delivers employee data from Workday to the Avigilon Alta system. This interface consists of two web services, a required and an optional interface.

You will need to install the Workday App from our marketplace.

1. [Required] A custom report from Workday that is enabled as a web service, providing the needed employee information from Workday. This report can be customized based on the needs of the Avigilon Alta customers by including or excluding specific employee information fields.

2. [Optional] A custom report from Workday that is enabled as a web service, providing the list of access security-related group information for the employees. The access security-related groups are configured in Workday as a custom list and the security access group that the employee belongs to is configured as a custom field. 

Required

How to create Custom Reports covers the configuration steps for the required employee information web service.

Optional

How to create a Custom field and Custom Object, and Create a Custom Report for Security Access Groups outlines the setup needed for transferring the optional security access group information.

How to create ISU & ISSG describes the configuration steps for setting up the Integration System User (ISU) account in Workday and giving it appropriate security access to the system. Avigilon Alta will use the ISU along with the associated credentials to call the web service and get employee and security access group data from Workday. 

It is recommended that the Workday customer first implement and test the interface in their development/test environment (Implementation and/or Sandbox Workday tenants) before migration to the Production environment.

Once the Workday customer of Avigilon Alta systems completes the configuration of the reports and security setup, they will provide the following information to allow connection between Avigilon Alta and Workday

Endpoint URL: 

ISU User Name:

ISU Password:

Now you can set up the integration in the Control Center by following the article, How do I Sync Users with Workday.
