OAuthAuthorizationURL
The OAuth authorization endpoint associated with your Workday account.
Data Type
string
Default Value
""
Remarks
Workday uses different base URLs for the website and API endpoints. For most operations, the provider uses the API base URL as given in the BaseURL property. However, when using AuthScheme=OAuth, the provider directs users to a website URL to authenticate to Workday.
Automatic Detection of OAuthAuthorizationURL
If your BaseURL follows one of the following patterns, the provider discovers the OAuth authorization URL automatically, in which case you do not need to set this connection property.
The X and Y in these patterns are internal Workday service numbers. For example, the BaseURL https://wd1-services2.workday.com matches the pattern https://wdX-servicesY.workday.com.
- https://wdX-servicesY.workday.com
- https://wdX-servicesY-impl.workday.com
- https://wdX-servicesY.myworkday.com
- https://wdX-servicesY-impl.myworkday.com
Manually Setting OAuthAuthorizationURL
If your OAuth authorization endpoint does not follow one of these patters, or if you are unsure whether your BaseURL matches a pattern, set this connection property directly.
To obtain the value manually, log into Workday, type "View API Clients" in the search box, and select the resulting View API Clients report.
You are redirected to the View API Clients page. Near the top of this page, the Authorization Endpoint is displayed. Copy this value and set it as the value of this connection property.
The value set in this connection property takes priority over any automatic value.
