Working with Notification Processes

You can use the notification processes to listen to user data changes on Workday cloud applications.

You can use the notification processes to listen to various user events triggered on a specified record in Workday cloud applications, for example, the add, update records, along with other user events.

Before you use the notification processes, you must complete the following operations:

• Configure the notification processes to actively listen on a server with a public IP address to receive notification messages sent from Workday cloud applications.

  For example, a server hosted in a DMZ on a public network, or a server on a public cloud with a public IP address. You can set the configurations with the module properties.

  See Running the Notification Processes for more details.

• Set the value in the Notification URL field in the External Endpoints area to the actual server address and port on the Workday cloud platform to ensure the Workday applications can send notification messages to the exact server host.

  See Adding Notification URL Information to Workday Cloud Applications for more details.

• Configure the HTTP communication mode between the notification processes and the Workday applications for receiving user event notification messages for the notification processes.
