Why teams connect BigQuery and Ukg Ready

Land the people and organization records from Ukg Ready in BigQuery as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Ukg Ready 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 Ukg Ready is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in BigQuery next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Accruals / Time Off, Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs), Benefits, Cost Centers / Groups from Ukg Ready into tables in BigQuery continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in BigQuery, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Ukg Ready 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 Activate modeled BigQuery tables by syncing computed attributes back into sales and marketing tools
  • 02 Maintain a customer master table in BigQuery joined across CRM, billing, and support sources
  • 03 Mirror Cost Centers/Groups and Compensation into finance and planning systems for headcount and budget reconciliation.
  • 04 Two-way sync Employees and Employment/Position records with an operational Postgres database so internal apps and IT provisioning read job title, department, and status in SQL while HR edits in UKG Ready.

Common sync patterns

Headcount and cost joined with everything else

Analysts combine Ukg Ready's workforce records with finance, product, or operational data already in BigQuery 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.

Queryable history for planning and audit

A continuously synced copy in BigQuery gives you a durable, queryable record of how Ukg Ready's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

What you can sync between BigQuery and Ukg Ready

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.

BigQuery objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Datasets Organizational container — you pick which dataset’s tables to sync. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Datasets is specific to BigQuery and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Projects Connection scope: the service account grants access per project. Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. Projects is specific to BigQuery and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The syncable unit: only tables can be synced per the Stacksync docs. Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Tables is specific to BigQuery and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitioned tables Synced like regular tables; partition columns map to target fields. Timesheet Entries Time-and-attendance punches, hours worked, and breaks; written from external time systems and read into warehouses for labor-cost reporting. Partitioned tables is specific to BigQuery and Timesheet Entries to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Clustered tables Supported; clustering is transparent to the sync. Accruals / Time Off PTO balances, requests, and approver status; read for liability reporting and requests can be created against employee records. Clustered tables is specific to BigQuery and Accruals / Time Off to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BigQuery and Ukg Ready

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.

BigQuery Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in BigQuery are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Real-time notification service deployed into your Google Cloud project: Eventarc ("a notification service that enables real-time updates to happen").

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

Ukg Ready BigQuery Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Ready notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. UKG Webhooks for select events (employee.created, employee.updated, account/org changes) with HMAC signing.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • BigQuery: Subject to Google Cloud quotas on queries, DML, and streaming; DML is supported but the platform favors append-heavy batch and streaming loads over row-at-a-time writes.
  • Ukg Ready: Rate limits apply over roughly a 1-minute window and return HTTP 429 when exceeded (back off / exponential retry); UKG Webhooks run on a tiered quota with a free tier around 10,000 event notifications per month and 14-day event retention.
