Understanding UKG API
UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group) provides APIs across its UKG Pro (enterprise HRIS/payroll) and UKG Ready (mid-market) products. Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 with UKG-specific app key requirements. UKG Pro is one of the most complex enterprise HRIS integrations due to its scope and API design.
Key Integration Use Cases
- Employee data sync: Pull employee records, compensation, and employment details.
- Payroll data: Access payroll runs, deductions, and pay history.
- Benefits data: Sync benefit enrollment and plan data.
Integration Methods
Direct API
UKG Pro API requires app key registration, complex OAuth flows, and deep familiarity with UKG's data model. Integration typically takes several months of engineering time.
