Why teams connect Firebolt and Workday

Land the financial records from Workday in Firebolt continuously, and write results back, without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Finance data belongs in the warehouse: revenue, invoices, payments, and customers joined with everything else the business measures. Getting it there usually means an extraction pipeline that breaks quietly and delivers yesterday's numbers.

Stacksync syncs Journal Entries, Custom Reports (RaaS), Workers, Organizations from Workday into tables in Firebolt in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in Firebolt can be written back to fields in Workday where you want them operational. Schema changes are handled, API limits are managed, and the sync is something you configure rather than code you maintain.

Common use cases

  • Keep supervisory-organization hierarchies aligned with planning and workforce tools that model the same structure.
  • Sync worker records from Workday into IT and identity systems so hires, transfers, and terminations provision access automatically.
  • Sync CRM objects into Firebolt so customer-facing dashboards reflect recent pipeline changes.
  • Keep dimension tables aligned with source systems while high-volume event data loads through separate batch pipelines.

Finance analytics without ETL

Invoices, payments, and customer records from Workday arrive in Firebolt as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind.

Revenue joined with everything else

Analysts combine Workday's financial records with product, marketing, or operational data already in Firebolt for reporting the finance system cannot do alone.

Write-back of computed fields

Scores or segments computed in Firebolt, like payment-risk flags or customer tiers, sync back onto records in Workday where the finance team can act on them.

What you can sync between Firebolt and Workday

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.

Firebolt objects Workday objects
External tables References to files in object storage used to stage bulk loads. Customers and Invoices Financials receivables objects synced for billing visibility where Workday Financials is used.
Views Curated query surfaces commonly used as sources for reverse ETL. Journal Entries Accounting entries imported from external subledgers into Workday Financials.
Aggregating indexes Precomputed rollups maintained at write time; incremental loads update them automatically. Custom Reports (RaaS) Tenant-defined reports exposed as web service endpoints, often the practical read surface for syncs.
Engines Compute resources that must be running for a sync to read or write. Workers The central HCM record covering employment, job, and personal data; the anchor of most syncs.
Databases Logical containers holding the tables a sync targets. Organizations Supervisory and company hierarchies read to drive routing and reporting in other systems.
Tables Managed columnar tables written with SQL; the main sync destination. Positions Job seats synced with recruiting and planning tools.

How the Firebolt and Workday connectors work

Firebolt

Integration surface
SQL over a REST API, with JDBC, Python, and Node.js SDKs
Authentication
Service account credentials (client ID and secret) exchanged for OAuth 2.0 tokens
Change detection
Polling; Firebolt is an analytics destination and does not expose a change feed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed request quota; throughput depends on the engine size attached to the workload

Workday

Integration surface
SOAP Workday Web Services (WWS), a REST API, and Reports-as-a-Service (RaaS) endpoints for custom reports
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 for the REST API; integration system users with WS-Security or certificate-based auth for SOAP
Change detection
Polling, including transaction-log criteria on SOAP operations to fetch objects changed since a given moment; no general webhook surface
