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.
