Why teams connect Ceridian Dayforce and Quip
Keep the people, teams, and status that Quip and Ceridian Dayforce share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.
Each tool in Quip keeps its own list of who can use it: users, members, or agents, along with the team they sit on and whether they are still active. Ceridian Dayforce is the authoritative record of the same people as employees, with their department, manager, and employment status. When those two are connected only by manual account admin or a periodic export, the work tools drift: new hires wait days for access, team and manager changes never catch up, and people who have left keep standing accounts.
Stacksync syncs Folders, Messages, Users, Blobs in Quip with Employment Status, Work Assignments, Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments, Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries in Ceridian Dayforce bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Ceridian Dayforce creates or updates the matching user in Quip within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Quip captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Ceridian Dayforce in whichever direction you configure.
Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps its own extras; only the shared facts, who a person is, which team they belong to, and whether their access should be on, are held in agreement.
Common use cases
- 01 Write status rows from an operational database into a shared Quip Spreadsheet with update_spreadsheet_row so ops and deal-desk teams see live figures in-document.
- 02 Read Messages from project threads into a data store to analyze collaboration activity and comment volume per document.
- 03 Two-way sync of Employee and Work Assignment data (position, department, location, org unit) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current worker and org data in SQL while HR keeps editing in Dayforce.
- 04 Push new hires (Employee, Employment Status, Work Assignment) from an ATS or onboarding tool into Dayforce with POST once a candidate is hired, pre-fetching valid XRefCodes for department, position, location, and pay group.
Common sync patterns
One employee directory
A person's name, title, contact details, or status corrected in either system updates the other, so both sides stop maintaining separate copies of the same person.
Org and team structure kept current
Department, team, and reporting-line changes from Ceridian Dayforce keep the groups, queues, or projects in Quip assigned to the right people.
Where Quip routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org
When someone changes teams or managers in Ceridian Dayforce, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Quip update to match, so work reaches whoever holds the role now.
What you can sync between Ceridian Dayforce and Quip
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.
| Ceridian Dayforce objects | Quip objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions Configuration reference data; POST creates org units and departments and PATCH updates job, position, department, and org-unit data. Used to resolve and validate XRefCodes when mapping employee writes. | Spreadsheets Live-spreadsheet threads; rows and cells are read and written through add_to_spreadsheet and update_spreadsheet_row helpers on the same thread endpoints. | Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Spreadsheets to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Time Away From Work & Balances Time-off requests and accrual balances read per employee; pulled into scheduling, payroll, or absence-reporting databases and used to reconcile leave against downstream systems. | Folders Private, Shared, and Group containers that organize threads; membership is added or removed via the folders endpoints for access control. | Time Away From Work & Balances is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Folders to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Employee (HR / Person Details) Core worker record keyed by XRefCode; GET Employees returns matching XRefCodes, then a per-employee GET fetches full HR details. New hires are added with POST and edits made with PATCH, so it is read and write. | Messages Comments and chat posts on a thread; the most recent are read with get_messages and new ones written with new_message. | Employee (HR / Person Details) is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Messages to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Employment Status Effective-dated employment status and type (active, leave, terminated) that drives active/terminated state for downstream provisioning; read, and writable as new dated status records. | Users Member records read individually or via contacts; get_authenticated_user identifies the token owner. Used read-only for directory-style syncs. | Employment Status is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Users to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Work Assignments Effective-dated position, department, location, and org-unit assignment; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Read and updatable via PATCH. | Blobs Images and file attachments stored per thread; downloaded with get_blob and uploaded with put_blob against a specific thread ID. | Work Assignments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Blobs to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments Compensation Summary returns pay rate and frequency for reporting; Employee Pay Adjustments are written as effective-dated records via PATCH to post pay changes back to Dayforce. | Documents Editable rich-text threads addressed by ID; created and updated over REST via HTML or Markdown sections, with an updated_usec timestamp used to detect edits. | Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Documents to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Ceridian Dayforce and Quip
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.
Ceridian Dayforce Quip Sub-second propagation
DetectionCeridian Dayforce notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No CDC stream.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Quip through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Quip Ceridian Dayforce Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Quip for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Ceridian Dayforce through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Ceridian Dayforce: Dayforce does not publish numeric rate limits; thresholds vary by tenant and exceeding them returns HTTP 429, so large employee reads are paged (pageSize) and throttled with backoff. Employee list calls return XRefCodes only, so each employee needs a follow-up GET.
- Quip: Automation API allows roughly 50 requests per minute per access token; exceeding it returns HTTP 503, and responses carry X-RateLimit headers.

How the Ceridian Dayforce and Quip connectors work
Ceridian Dayforce
- Integration surface
- REST API (Dayforce RESTful Web Services, v1/v2), JSON payloads
- Authentication
- HTTP Basic authentication with a dedicated Web Services user plus the client namespace (Company ID), or an OAuth 2.0 access token from the Dayforce identity endpoint (POST dfid.dayforcehcm.com/connect/token, client_id Dayforce.HCMAnywhere.Client). Token-based auth is recommended, and the Web Services role with the Read Data subfeature must be enabled on the account.
- Change detection
- No CDC stream. Broad change detection uses delta polling on GET Employees with filterUpdatedStartDate/filterUpdatedEndDate and filterUpdatedEntities to pull only records changed in a window. Dayforce also has native Event Notifications (the Notification Publisher) for lifecycle events — hire, rehire, terminate, and workflow validation — delivered by push to a receiver service or by querying unacknowledged notifications; the publisher runs roughly hourly and each notification must be acknowledged.
