Creates Project Edit Events and initiates the associated workflow to update the project.

Workday Resource Information

Creates a Project Edit Event business process and initiates the workflow to partially update the existing project with the specified data in the request body for the specified ID. In the request body, specify at least these required fields: ProjectHierarchy {id}, ProjectName, ProjectStartDate. Use the mm-dd-yyyy format. This endpoint is equivalent to the Create Project task in Workday.

Aggregate Fields

The connector represents the following fields as aggregates containing JSON text. Each of them conforms to their respective schema. Fields marked with an asterisk are required and must be included if their parent object is. Fields marked with a hyphen are read-only and must not be included when calling stored procedures or when performing an INSERT or UPDATE.

This information is derived from the Workday REST API specification which does not explicitly list all business rules and validations that apply to each object. More fields may be required than what is listed here.
