Why teams connect Google Sheets and Ukg Ready

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

Each tool in Google Sheets 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 Ready 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 Cell values, Spreadsheets, Sheets (tabs), Rows in Google Sheets with Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation in Ukg Ready bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Ukg Ready creates or updates the matching user in Google Sheets within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Google Sheets captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Ukg Ready 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 Prototype an integration by syncing a sheet before committing to a database schema.
  • 02 Give ops and finance teams an editable spreadsheet view of CRM or database records, with edits written back to the source.
  • 03 Create new-hire Employee records in UKG Ready from an ATS or onboarding workflow, including position, cost center, and compensation fields.
  • 04 Feed Timesheet Entries and Accruals/Time Off into a data warehouse for labor-cost, overtime, and PTO-liability reporting.

Common sync patterns

Org and team structure kept current

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

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

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

Onboarding: access ready on day one

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

What you can sync between Google Sheets 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.

Google Sheets objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Ranges Addressed in A1 notation for batched reads and writes. Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Ranges is specific to Google Sheets and Cost Centers / Groups to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Named ranges Stable references that keep sync mappings valid when the grid moves. Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Named ranges is specific to Google Sheets and Reports (Report-as-a-Service) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cell values Untyped by default, so syncs handle type coercion for dates and numbers. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Cell values is specific to Google Sheets and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Spreadsheets The file-level container a sync connects to, identified by spreadsheet ID. Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. Spreadsheets is specific to Google Sheets and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sheets (tabs) Individual worksheets, typically mapped one-to-one to a synced table. Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Sheets (tabs) is specific to Google Sheets and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows Treated as records; a header row usually defines field names. Timesheet Entries Time-and-attendance punches, hours worked, and breaks; written from external time systems and read into warehouses for labor-cost reporting. Rows is specific to Google Sheets and Timesheet Entries to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Sheets 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.

Google Sheets Ukg Ready Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Google Sheets for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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

Ukg Ready Google Sheets 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 written to Google Sheets through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Sheets: Subject to per-minute read and write quotas per project and per user, so large syncs are batched.
  • 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.

Ukg Ready

Integration surface

Authentication
A 7-digit company short name, a Web API key (Company Setup > Login Config), and a dedicated API service-account user (username/password) are exchanged for a session Bearer token sent on every request; Onboarding/Recruiting endpoints use a separate authorization token
