Why teams connect Apache Doris and Paylocity

Land the people and organization records from Paylocity in Apache Doris as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Paylocity can use them.

Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Paylocity is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in Apache Doris next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Pay Statements, Company Codes, Custom Fields, Employees from Paylocity into tables in Apache Doris continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Apache Doris, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Paylocity where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land CRM and operational database records in Doris for low-latency dashboards over fresh data.
  • 02 Continuously upsert changing records into Unique Key tables so analytics reflect current state rather than append-only history.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Employees between Paylocity and an HRIS or identity provider so new hires, terminations, and demographic edits flow both directions.
  • 04 Push hired candidates from an ATS into Paylocity via the Onboarding endpoint, then read Onboarding Status to confirm the record before the first payroll run.

Common sync patterns

HR data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

People and organization records from Paylocity arrive in Apache Doris as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind, replacing hand-built extract jobs.

Headcount and cost joined with everything else

Analysts combine Paylocity's workforce records with finance, product, or operational data already in Apache Doris for reporting the HR system cannot produce on its own.

Fresh data instead of last night's load

Because changes stream continuously, reports query current workforce data rather than waiting for an overnight load window to finish.

What you can sync between Apache Doris and Paylocity

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Apache Doris objects Paylocity objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Columnar tables in one of Doris's table models, used as sync destinations. Earnings (Pay Setup) Recurring earning codes at the employee level; two-way via Upsert Earning and Delete, with Get All Earnings and Get by earning code for reads. Tables is specific to Apache Doris and Earnings (Pay Setup) to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Unique Key Tables Tables supporting primary-key upserts, the natural target for row-level syncs. Local and State Taxes Two-way via Create/Update/Delete Local Tax and Upsert Primary / Non-Primary State Tax; Get by tax code and Get All for reads. Unique Key Tables is specific to Apache Doris and Local and State Taxes to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Aggregate Key Tables Tables that pre-aggregate on load, used for metric rollups. Direct Deposit Read-only: Get All Direct Deposit and Get Employee Bank Accounts return main and additional allocations. Bank details cannot be written through the API. Aggregate Key Tables is specific to Apache Doris and Direct Deposit to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Range or list partitions that bound incremental loads. Pay Statements Read-only detailed payroll statement data — earnings, deductions, taxes, and direct deposit allocations by year, check date, or date range. Pulled for reporting, never written. Partitions is specific to Apache Doris and Pay Statements to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed views readable for downstream syncs and BI. Company Codes Read-only reference codes and descriptions (cost centers, departments, positions) used to validate field mappings on employee writes. Materialized Views is specific to Apache Doris and Company Codes to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Roles Principals used to grant the sync connection scoped access. Custom Fields Read-only company-specific custom fields returned by category, used to enrich the employee record downstream. Users and Roles is specific to Apache Doris and Custom Fields to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Doris and Paylocity

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Apache Doris Paylocity Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Apache Doris for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on partition or timestamp columns for reads.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Paylocity through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Paylocity Apache Doris Sub-second propagation

DetectionPaylocity notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Apache Doris as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Doris: No API quotas; load throughput depends on cluster resources and load-job configuration.
  • Paylocity: 25 requests per second (1,500 per minute); exceeding it returns HTTP 429. Every path is scoped to a Paylocity-assigned companyId (a company code, not a UUID).

How the Apache Doris and Paylocity connectors work

Apache Doris

Integration surface
MySQL wire protocol for SQL access; HTTP APIs (such as Stream Load) for bulk ingestion
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Polling on partition or timestamp columns for reads; ingestion into Doris is push-based via load jobs

Paylocity

Integration surface
REST API (v1 and v2), JSON payloads
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client credentials via the Paylocity Identity Provider (/IdentityServer/connect/token) with the WebLinkAPI scope; access tokens expire after one hour and API access must be enabled by Paylocity for the company
Change detection
Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL; payloads carry only companyId and employeeId, so the receiver calls the relevant API to fetch changed values. Scheduled polling is used for objects without webhooks.
