## Overview

Workday offers enterprise-level software solutions for financial management, human resources, and planning.

The **Uipath.Workday.Activities** package enables you to automate interactions with your Workday application. Using Workday's [SOAP and RaaS APIs](https://community.workday.com/api), this activities package gives your UiPath robot(s) the ability to retrieve reports and launch Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB) integrations.

## How it works

To enable the outbound automation between UiPath and Workday, the activities establish an authenticated connection to your Workday application using the [Workday Scope](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/legacy-integrations/workday-scope) activity.

After the connection is established, the other Workday activities send requests to the applicable [SOAP API](https://community.workday.com/sites/default/files/file-hosting/productionapi/versions/v33.0/index.html) operation using the parameters you enter in the activities' input properties (via the properties panel and/or Object Wizard. If the requests are successful, the activities return the response values to the output property variables.

### How does it connect?

This is where we need your help.

Before the scope activity can be used to establish a connection, you must complete the steps outlined in the [Setup](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/legacy-integrations/workday-setup) guide. After you complete the **Setup** steps, you can begin building your automation projects

## Technical references

The [Technical References](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/legacy-integrations/workday-technical-references) page includes a complete list of and the links to the SOAP API operations used by each activity.

You don't need to be familiar with the SOAP API operations to use the activities; the references are for **informational purposes only**.
