Workday Prism Analytics connection

Introduction

A Workday Prism Analytics connection, created using the Workday Prism Analytics connector, establishes access to Workday Prism Analytics. Once a connection is configured, you can create instances of Workday Prism Analytics activities associated with that connection to be used either as a source (to provide data in an operation) or as a target (to consume data in an operation).

Note

This connector supports the Enable Re-authentication on Change organization policy. If enabled, a change to the Workday Host, Tenant, Organization, or Client ID in this connection requires users to re-enter the Client Secret and Refresh Token for the connection.

Create or edit a Workday Prism Analytics connection

A new Workday Prism Analytics connection is created using the Workday Prism Analytics connector from one of these locations:

An existing Workday Prism Analytics connection can be edited from these locations:

Configure a Workday Prism Analytics connection

Configuration of a Workday Prism Analytics connection includes these fields:

Workday Prism Analytics connection configuration

Tip

Fields with a variable icon Variable icon support using global variables, project variables, and Jitterbit variables. Begin either by typing an open square bracket [ into the field or by clicking the variable icon to display a list of the existing variables to choose from.

  • Connection Name: Enter a name to use to identify the Workday Prism Analytics connection. The name must be unique for each Workday Prism Analytics connection and must not contain forward slashes (/) or colons (:). This name is also used to identify the Workday Prism Analytics endpoint, which refers to both a specific connection and its activities.

  • Workday Host: Enter the Workday host name.

  • Tenant: Enter the Workday tenant.

  • Organization: Enter the Workday organization.

  • Client ID: Enter the Workday client ID that was generated when you created a new application.

  • Client Secret: Enter the Workday client secret that was generated when you created a new application.

  • Refresh Token: Enter the Workday refresh token.

  • Use Proxy Settings (Private Agent Only): When using a private agent, this setting can be selected to use private agent proxy settings.

  • Test: Click to verify the connection using the provided configuration. When the connection is tested, the latest version of the connector is downloaded by the agent(s) in the agent group associated with the current environment. This connector supports suspending the download of the latest connector version by using the Disable Auto Connector Update organization policy.

  • Save Changes: Click to save and close the connection configuration.

  • Discard Changes: After making changes to a new or existing configuration, click to close the configuration without saving. A message asks you to confirm that you want to discard changes.

  • Delete: After opening an existing connection configuration, click to permanently delete the connection from the project and close the configuration (see Component dependencies, deletion, and removal). A message asks you to confirm that you want to delete the connection.

Next steps

After a Workday Prism Analytics connection has been created, you place an activity type on the design canvas to create an activity instance to be used either as a source (to provide data in an operation) or as a target (to consume data in an operation).

Menu actions for a connection and its activity types are accessible from the project pane and design component palette. For details, see Actions menus in Connector basics.

These activity types are available:

  • Get: Retrieves a specified table or wBucket or retrieves a list of all tables or wBuckets from Workday Prism Analytics and is intended to be used as a source in an operation.

  • Complete wBucket: Uploads data into a Workday Prism Analytics table and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.

  • Create: Creates a wBucket or table in Workday Prism Analytics and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.

  • Load Data: Compresses and uploads data into a Workday Prism Analytics table and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.

  • Get Status: Retrieves the status of a specified table from Workday Prism Analytics and is intended to be used as a source in an operation.
