Connecting to UKGProHCM

  • Password: Set this to your UKG Pro HCM password.
  • ProfileSettings: Set this to a semicolon-separated list containing:

    • CustomerAPIKey: Your UKG customer API key. This is passed as the US-CUSTOMER-API-KEY request header on each API call.

To obtain your customer API key, contact your UKG Pro HCM administrator or refer to the UKG Developer Portal at https://developer.ukg.com.
