Introduction

Docebo Connect is a Docebo module acting as a connector between your platform and third-party SaaS systems, helping you to integrate your platform with more than 400 third-party external systems, reducing the integration effort.

Docebo Connect offers a large catalog of connectors for the most popular SaaS systems, to manage automated workflows (called recipes) shared among systems in order to exchange and share data on the basis of triggers.

Please note that Docebo Connect takes advantage of the APIs and business logic already existing in the integrating systems and does not create new ones. In addition, Docebo Connect does not manage SSO flows with Identity Providers (such as SAML, OpenID Connect, etc), JavaScript integrations (such as Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager) or iframe integrations (such as Docebo OEM or Salesforce Canvas).

This article describes the process of using a Docebo Connect recipe to facilitate the batch import of employees from a Workday report (RaaS).

For more information on the definition of terms and concepts used throughout this article, please read Docebo Connect Glossary of Terms.

Activating Docebo Connect

Docebo Connect is a paid product. To activate Docebo Connect on your platform or sandbox, please reach out to your Docebo Account Manager.

Before You Start

All the recipes for this integration can be found in the project's folder. This folder should be considered a “special folder” as all the recipes contained within are subject to automatic updates. As such, any customizations you make to recipes located within the folder can be overwritten by Docebo. In order to prevent such an occurrence, it is strongly advised to create a new project folder for any recipes you wish to use in production and copy or clone the recipes from the project's folder inside.

Connectors

You will need two Connectors for these recipes, Workday and your default Docebo Connect connector.

The default Docebo connector will already be located inside your Project folder, described here are the steps necessary to add the Workday connector to Docebo Connect.

The Workday connector can be found by first pressing the down arrow next to the Create recipe button in the Workday folder, then pressing Create connection.

In the following Create Connection screen, type Workday into the search box and hit enter. Then, click on the Workday connector in the search results:

You will then need to configure the connector by filling in the relevant fields with your Workday information:
