Why teams connect Microsoft 365 and Ukg Pro

Keep the people, teams, and status that Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365 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 Planner & To Do Tasks, Users, Groups, Mail Messages in Microsoft 365 with Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person Details), Employment Details, Job / Position History 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 Microsoft 365 within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Microsoft 365 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 Archive mail and file metadata into a warehouse for compliance and activity analytics.
  • 02 Keep CRM contacts and Microsoft 365 contacts aligned in both directions.
  • 03 Keep Configuration code tables (jobs, locations, departments, cost centers) aligned between UKG Pro and an ERP so org and cost-center hierarchies match.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Employee and Job Details (position, department, supervisor, location, cost center) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current worker and org data in SQL while HR edits in UKG Pro.

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 Microsoft 365 assigned to the right people.

Where Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365 with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.

What you can sync between Microsoft 365 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.

Microsoft 365 objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Contacts Personal and org contacts kept consistent with CRM contact records. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Contacts is specific to Microsoft 365 and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
OneDrive Files (driveItems) File and folder metadata synced for document workflows and audits. 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. OneDrive Files (driveItems) is specific to Microsoft 365 and Configuration Setup (Code Tables) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
SharePoint Sites & Lists List items read and written like lightweight database tables. Time & Attendance (UTA) Timekeeping and worked-hours data exposed by the UTA services; synced into scheduling, payroll, or workforce-analytics databases. SharePoint Sites & Lists is specific to Microsoft 365 and Time & Attendance (UTA) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Team and membership data provisioned from upstream systems. 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. Teams is specific to Microsoft 365 and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Planner & To Do Tasks Task items synced with project and work-management tools. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Planner & To Do Tasks is specific to Microsoft 365 and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Entra ID user accounts synced with HR and identity systems. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Users is specific to Microsoft 365 and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Microsoft 365 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.

Microsoft 365 Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionMicrosoft 365 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Graph change notifications (webhooks) plus delta queries for incremental sync.

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

Ukg Pro Microsoft 365 Sub-second propagation

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

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Microsoft 365 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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
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.
