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 add-in uses the API base URL as given in the BaseURL property. However, when using AuthScheme=OAuth, the add-in directs users to a website URL to authenticate to Workday.

Automatic Detection of OAuthAuthorizationURL

If your BaseURL follows one of the following patterns, the add-in 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.
