Why teams connect Tinybird and Ukg Pro

Land the people and organization records from Ukg Pro in Tinybird 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 Tinybird next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person Details), Employment Details, Job / Position History from Ukg Pro into tables in Tinybird continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Tinybird, 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 Compute aggregates in Tinybird and write the results back to CRM fields for scoring and routing.
  • 02 Stream CRM activity such as deals and tickets into Tinybird Data Sources to power customer-facing dashboards.
  • 03 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.
  • 04 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.

Common sync patterns

Queryable history for planning and audit

A continuously synced copy in Tinybird gives you a durable, queryable record of how Ukg Pro's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

Write-back of computed values

Segments, rollups, or risk flags computed in Tinybird sync back onto the matching records in Ukg Pro, where the HR team sees them in the system they already use.

HR data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

People and organization records from Ukg Pro arrive in Tinybird as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind, replacing hand-built extract jobs.

What you can sync between Tinybird 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.

Tinybird objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Materialized Views Pipes materialized into new Data Sources for pre-aggregation at ingest time. 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. Materialized Views is specific to Tinybird and Compensation Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workspaces Project boundary that scopes Data Sources, Pipes, and tokens for a sync. 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. Workspaces is specific to Tinybird and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tokens Scoped credentials that control read and append rights per resource. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Tokens is specific to Tinybird and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Data Sources ClickHouse-backed tables that receive ingested rows; the write target for syncs into Tinybird. 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. Data Sources is specific to Tinybird and Configuration Setup (Code Tables) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Pipes Chained SQL nodes that transform Data Sources into query-ready results. Time & Attendance (UTA) Timekeeping and worked-hours data exposed by the UTA services; synced into scheduling, payroll, or workforce-analytics databases. Pipes is specific to Tinybird and Time & Attendance (UTA) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
API Endpoints Published Pipe outputs exposed as parameterized HTTP queries; the main read surface. 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. API Endpoints is specific to Tinybird and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Tinybird 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.

Tinybird Ukg Pro Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Tinybird for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Append-oriented ingestion.

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

Ukg Pro Tinybird Sub-second propagation

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Tinybird: Subject to the platform's ingestion and query rate limits; batch appends where possible.
  • 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 Tinybird and Ukg Pro connectors work

Tinybird

Integration surface
REST API (Events API for ingestion, published query endpoints) with a ClickHouse SQL dialect
Authentication
Scoped auth tokens
Change detection
Append-oriented ingestion; reads are pulled by querying published endpoints, no outbound CDC
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's ingestion and query rate limits; batch appends where possible.

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
read · write · webhooks
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.
