Instructions

In this document, we will provide instructions for connecting Workday with LeanIX SMP to get accounts data.

​1​ Configure a System Integration User in Workday

To create an integration system user:

  1. Sign into your Workday tenant using an administrator account.
  2. Search for and open the Create Integration System User task.

  1. Create Integration System User by supplying a User Name (LeanIXSMPIntegrationUser) and Password for a new Integration System User.
    1. Leave the Require New Password at Next Sign In option unchecked, because this user will be logging on programmatically.
    2. Leave the Session Timeout Minutes with its default value of 0, which will prevent the user’s sessions from timing out prematurely.

​2​) Create a Security Group

You need to create an unconstrained integration system security group and assign the user to it. To create a security group:

  1. Search for and open the Create Security Group task.

  1. In the Type of Tenanted Security Group field, choose Integration System Security Group (Unconstrained).

  1. Enter a group name “LeanIXSMPIntegrationUser” and click OK.
  2. Select the user you created (LeanIXSMPIntegrationUser) from the Integration System Users choice list and click OK, and then click Done.

​3​) Configure security group options

Add the integration security group to domains by completing the following steps:

  1. Search for domain: manage org and open the Manage: Organization Integration domain.

To obtain the Web services endpoint, simply look up the WSDL of any of the Web services in your organisation, as follows:

  1. Select Web Service \View WSDL, which displays the full WSDL in a separate window.
  2. In the WSDL, search for soapbind:address to see the Web services endpoint corresponding to the Web service that you chose. The Web Services endpoint is combined of:
    [[https://\](https://\)]([https://\](https://\))<subdomain>/ccx/service/<tenantName>/Human_Resources/v36.1
  3. For the LeanIX SMP configuration, you only need two parts of the found URL: subdomain and tenantName.
