Why teams connect Twilio and Ukg Pro

Keep the people, teams, and status that Twilio 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 Twilio 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 Incoming Phone Numbers, Outgoing Caller IDs, Accounts, Roles in Twilio with Terminations, Configuration Setup (Code Tables), Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person Details) 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 Twilio within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Twilio 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 Push Twilio usage records into a finance database for per-customer communication cost allocation.
  • 02 Trigger outbound messages by writing rows to a synced database table instead of calling the Twilio API directly from application code.
  • 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

Org and team structure kept current

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

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

What you can sync between Twilio 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.

Twilio objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Usage Records Aggregated usage and spend data synced into finance systems for cost tracking. 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. Usage Records is specific to Twilio and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Messages SMS, MMS, and WhatsApp messages with delivery status; synced to log outreach in CRMs and databases. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Messages is specific to Twilio and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Messaging Services Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Messaging Services is specific to Twilio and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calls Voice call records with duration and outcome, commonly mirrored to support and sales systems. 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. Calls is specific to Twilio and Compensation Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Incoming Phone Numbers Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. 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. Incoming Phone Numbers is specific to Twilio and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Outgoing Caller IDs Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Outgoing Caller IDs is specific to Twilio and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Twilio 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.

Twilio Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionTwilio notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Status callback webhooks per message and call, plus polling of resource lists for backfill.

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

Ukg Pro Twilio Sub-second propagation

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

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Twilio 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.

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.
