Why teams connect Docusign and Ukg Pro

Keep the people, teams, and status that Docusign and Ukg Pro share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.

Each tool in Docusign 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. Ukg Pro 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 Templates, Tabs (form fields), Envelope Custom Fields, Folders in Docusign with Job / Position History, Compensation Details, Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings), Terminations in Ukg Pro bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Ukg Pro creates or updates the matching user in Docusign within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Docusign captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Ukg Pro 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 Sync completed Envelopes and their Recipients status into Postgres so operations teams track signature progress and turnaround in SQL without logging into Docusign.
  • 02 Create and send an Envelope from a Template when a CRM Opportunity reaches closed-won, then write the returned envelopeId and status back onto the record.
  • 03 Replicate Compensation and pay-statement / earnings history into a warehouse for headcount, labor-cost, and payroll reporting without manual BI exports.
  • 04 Deprovision accounts by subscribing to UKG Pro termination and job-change webhook events to disable IdP and app access as changes become effective.

Common sync patterns

Org and team structure kept current

Department, team, and reporting-line changes from Ukg Pro keep the groups, queues, or projects in Docusign assigned to the right people.

Where Docusign routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org

When someone changes teams or managers in Ukg Pro, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Docusign update to match, so work reaches whoever holds the role now.

Onboarding: access ready on day one

A new hire recorded in Ukg Pro creates the matching user in Docusign with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.

What you can sync between Docusign and Ukg Pro

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.

Docusign objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Envelopes The core container for a signature request — documents, recipients, routing, and status; read status and metadata two-way, and create/send new envelopes. Employee (Person Details) Core worker record with demographics and identifiers; read by listing employee IDs then fetching each profile, and created on hire via the personnel/onboarding endpoints. Envelopes is specific to Docusign and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Recipients Signers, carbon copies, and agents on an envelope, each with a routing order and status; read recipient progress, write recipient lists when an envelope is created. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Recipients is specific to Docusign and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Documents The PDF files inside an envelope plus the certificate of completion; read signed output out to a store, or supply source documents on create. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Documents is specific to Docusign and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Templates Reusable envelope definitions with predefined recipients and tab placement; read to map fields and referenced by ID to generate new envelopes. Compensation Details Effective-dated pay rate and salary; usually read into a warehouse for comp reporting and writable as new dated changes through the compensation endpoints. Templates is specific to Docusign and Compensation Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tabs (form fields) Signature, initial, date, text, and checkbox fields on a document; they carry the data a signer entered and are read out into databases. Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) Pay statements, direct-deposit accounts, and earnings history; read-only pay data replicated into finance and warehouse systems for labor-cost reporting. Tabs (form fields) is specific to Docusign and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Envelope Custom Fields Text and list metadata used to tag envelopes for reporting; synced to a warehouse or CRM to key and categorize agreements. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Envelope Custom Fields is specific to Docusign and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Docusign and Ukg Pro

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.

Docusign Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionDocusign notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Docusign Connect webhooks push envelope and recipient status-change events in real time.

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

Ukg Pro Docusign Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Pro notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No CDC stream.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Docusign: Default 3,000 API requests per hour per account across all integrations, plus a burst limit of 500 calls per 30-second window; usage is exposed via the RateLimit and BurstLimit response headers.
  • Ukg Pro: An API gateway throttles calls per client over a rolling window (typically per minute); UKG does not publish exact numeric thresholds. Exceeding the limit returns HTTP 429, and UKG recommends a roughly one-second looping backoff before resuming (a Retry-After header is not yet standard). Reads are offset-paginated.

How the Docusign and Ukg Pro connectors work

Docusign

Integration surface
eSignature REST API v2.1 (plus Docusign Connect webhooks; separate CLM, Rooms, and Admin APIs)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 — Authorization Code Grant for interactive apps, or JWT Grant (RSA key pair with user impersonation) for server-to-server integrations
Change detection
Docusign Connect webhooks push envelope and recipient status-change events in real time; polling is the fallback and is limited to once every 15 minutes per envelope

Docusign setup guide

Ukg Pro

Integration surface
REST API (UKG Pro HCM REST services) with separate Onboarding and Recruiting REST APIs, plus legacy SOAP-based UKG Pro Web Services
Authentication
Core HCM REST APIs use HTTP Basic authentication with a dedicated web service account, plus a Customer API Key and a User API Key sent as headers (found under System Configuration > Security > Service Account Administration); the Onboarding and Recruiting REST APIs instead require a bearer Authorization Token from the token endpoint.
Change detection
No CDC stream. UKG Pro publishes Pro HCM Webhook Events for changes such as new hire, employee and job detail changes, termination, and PTO, which Stacksync subscribes to for near-real-time triggers; bulk and historical loads use paged reads with each service's modified-since filters.
Capabilities

Rate limits
An API gateway throttles calls per client over a rolling window (typically per minute); UKG does not publish exact numeric thresholds. Exceeding the limit returns HTTP 429, and UKG recommends a roughly one-second looping backoff before resuming (a Retry-After header is not yet standard). Reads are offset-paginated.
