Why teams connect Google Cloud Platform and Ukg Pro

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

Stacksync syncs Employment Details, Job / Position History, Compensation Details, Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) from Ukg Pro into tables in Google Cloud Platform continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Google Cloud Platform, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Ukg Pro 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 Publish change events to Pub/Sub so downstream services react to record updates as they happen.
  • 02 Push new hires (Employee, Employment, Job) into an ERP, IdP, or app database when onboarding completes so account, cost-center, and payroll setup fire on hire instead of manual report exports.
  • 03 Replicate Compensation and pay-statement / earnings history into a warehouse for headcount, labor-cost, and payroll reporting without manual BI exports.

Common sync patterns

Headcount and cost joined with everything else

Analysts combine Ukg Pro's workforce records with finance, product, or operational data already in Google Cloud Platform 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 Google Cloud Platform gives you a durable, queryable record of how Ukg Pro's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Platform 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.

Google Cloud Platform objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Pub/Sub topics Event streams used to move change events between systems in near real time. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Pub/Sub topics is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Firestore documents Document data read and written through the Firestore API for app-facing syncs. Configuration Setup (Code Tables) Reference data such as jobs, locations, positions, earnings, and deduction codes; used to resolve and validate field values when mapping records during sync. Firestore documents is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Configuration Setup (Code Tables) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Spanner tables Strongly consistent relational tables accessed via SQL for transactional workloads. Time & Attendance (UTA) Timekeeping and worked-hours data exposed by the UTA services; synced into scheduling, payroll, or workforce-analytics databases. Spanner tables is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Time & Attendance (UTA) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
BigQuery datasets Namespaces that group tables; syncs target tables within a dataset. 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. BigQuery datasets is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
BigQuery tables The primary analytics destination, written through load jobs or the Storage Write API and queried with SQL. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. BigQuery tables is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cloud SQL databases Managed Postgres, MySQL, and SQL Server instances synced like ordinary relational databases. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Cloud SQL databases is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Cloud Platform 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.

Google Cloud Platform Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionGoogle Cloud Platform pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Varies by service: log-based CDC on Cloud SQL (logical replication or binlog, also via Datastream), Pub/Sub for event delivery, polling for BigQuery.

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

Ukg Pro Google Cloud Platform Sub-second propagation

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Cloud Platform: Quotas are set per service and per project; BigQuery, Pub/Sub, and Cloud SQL each enforce their own limits.
  • 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.

Authentication
IAM service accounts with OAuth 2.0 tokens

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
