ADP Integration Trigger

[borre842]

Hello,

Working on an ADP Integration but having issue with the lack of Trigger actions from the connector and also don't know ADP at all.

I want to move every new/updated Worker to my Application but even if I set a Scheduled recipe how to know if I already sync the Worker in a Search, is there a way to add custom field on ADP, or like a last modified date, also I am not able to use Connector SDK for this integration.

Which ADP Product do you have? We have Workforce now and I had to build an Event Subscription item that runs on a schedule.

Hey @borre842, do you still need assistance building your ADP integration? Let us know!

Cheers,

Hey @brian-haskins , yeah that seems to be the only Option available with the Base Connector but will end it up being not a good option as will be taking to many tasks of the Workato Subscriptions with the time.

I Am reviewing the Community Connector for ADP as this one as the Trigger Event Notification but still waiting for my Customer ADP access as I don't have one.

have you tried the Community Connector on the Event Notification trigger?

@meghan-legaspi  Yes still looking into this integration 🙂 Thanks.

@borre842 , not sure why I didnt go with the community connector as there was an official one available. Although not with the Event Trigger in it. Community looks more robust so if we expand our capabilities, it could help better. 

Right now we only utilize the time off request codes. Any other events are discarded. For 300 people company, we use about 3k tasks a month with the Project so 36k-ish a year in tasks and it only runs from 8a-5p Mon - Fri in 15 minute increments. My setup is below. I have a main job to determine if I need to process it (Event Subscribe). There is a bunch of IF statements for the code value of the event pending where it needs to go. It probably could be more simple. There is Event Data in the JSON and then Event Specific Data that I needed which is why the JSON parse is in there depending on which code value is there. The schema changes based on the event. 

With ADP, you can designate what events you want so only take in the ones you are using. Also if you dont get a timely response, make sure to escalate to your account rep. It took 5 weeks for us to get an event stream turned on. Support only responded when we escalated.
