Connecting to Paylocity

Paylocity provides two ways to connect: via the Pay Entry API, and via the standard Paylocity API.

Before you connect, set these properties (if applicable):

• UseSandbox: True if you are using a Sandbox account; otherwise, False.
• CustomFieldsCategory: If IncludeCustomFields is True, set CustomFieldsCategory to the appropriate Custom Fields category. (Default: PayrollAndHR.)

For sites that have opted in to encryption:

• Set only one of the following encryption properties:
  • Key: The AES symmetric key (base 64 encoded) is encrypted with the Paylocity Public Key. This key is used to encrypt Paylocity content. Paylocity decrypts the AES key using RSA decryption. Used if the IV value is not provided.
  • IV: The AES IV (base 64 encoded) used when encrypting Paylocity. If no Key value is provided, IV is generated internally.
• If RSA encryption is enabled in your Paylocity account, set RSAPublicKey to the RSA Key associated with your Paylocity. (This property is required for executing Insert and Update statements.) If the feature is disabled, it is not required.

The Pay Entry API

The Pay Entry API is an extremely limited connection that enables users to automatically submit payroll information for individual employees, and little else. Due to the extremely limited nature of what is offered by the Pay Entry API, it does not have a separate schema. However, it can be enabled via the UsePayEntryAPI connection property.

The Pay Entry API is completely separate from the rest of the Paylocity API. It uses a separate Client ID and Secret, and must be explicitly requested from Paylocity for access to be granted for an account.

Notes:

• When setting UsePayEntryAPI to True, you may only use the following stored procedures:
  • CreatePayEntryImportBatch
  • MergePayEntryImportBatch
  • Input_TimeEntry
  • available OAuth stored procedures
  Attempts to use other features of the product will result in an error.
• the OAuthAccessToken you obtain for use with the Pay Entry API must be stored separately. This often requires you to set a different OAuthSettingsLocation when using this connection property.

Authenticating to Paylocity

Paylocity supports OAuth authentication for all connections to data, from either Pay Entry API or the standard Paylocity API. To enable this authentication from all OAuth flows, you must set AuthScheme to OAuth, and you must obtain the proper credentials from Paylocity, as described in OAuth 認証情報の取得.

The following subsections describe how to authenticate to Paylocity from the three most common authentication flows.

For a complete list of connection string properties available in Paylocity, see Connection.

Desktop Applications

To authenticate with your OAuth credentials, you must get and refresh the OAuth access token. After you do that, you are ready to connect.

Get and refresh the OAuth access token:

• InitiateOAuth = GETANDREFRESH. Used to automatically get and refresh the OAuthAccessToken.
• OAuthClientId = The client_id you obtained from Paylocity.
• OAuthClientSecret = The client secret that you obtained from Paylocity.
• CallbackURL = The redirect URI that you registered with Paylocity.

When you connect, the 本製品 opens Paylocity's OAuth endpoint in your default browser. Log in and grant permissions to the application.

When the access token expires, the 本製品 refreshes it automatically.

Automatic refresh of the OAuth access token:

To have the 本製品 automatically refresh the OAuth access token, do the following:

1. Before connecting to data for the first time, set the following connection parameters:
   • InitiateOAuth = REFRESH.
   • OAuthClientId = The client_id you obtained from Paylocity.
   • OAuthClientSecret = The secret you obtained from Paylocity.
   • OAuthAccessToken = The access token returned by GetOAuthAccessToken.
   • OAuthSettingsLocation = The path where you want the 本製品 to save the OAuth values, which persist across connections.
2. On subsequent data connections, set the following:
   • InitiateOAuth
   • OAuthSettingsLocation

Manual refresh of the OAuth access token:

The only value needed to manually refresh the OAuth access token is the OAuth refresh token.

1. To manually refresh the OAuthAccessToken after the ExpiresIn period (returned by GetOAuthAccessToken) has elapsed, call the RefreshOAuthAccessToken stored procedure.
2. Set the following connection properties:
   • OAuthClientId = The Client Id you obtained from Paylocity.
   • OAuthClientSecret = The Client Secret you obtained from Paylocity.

3. Call RefreshOAuthAccessToken with OAuthRefreshToken set to the OAuth refresh token returned by GetOAuthAccessToken.
4. After the new tokens have been retrieved, set the OAuthAccessToken property to the value returned by RefreshOAuthAccessToken. This opens a new connection.

Store the OAuth refresh token so that you can use it to manually refresh the OAuth access token after it has expired.
