Map the Manager Field from Workday to Okta
Okta Integration Network

Overview

This article describes how to map manager email address from Workday to Okta.

Applies To
  • Profile Editor
  • Workday
  • Okta Expression Language
  • Okta Classic Engine
Solution

By default, Workday provides the manager username and the manager ID fields to retrieve manager information to Okta

As long as the email domain is the same, the manager username can be leveraged into an expression, depending on the format of the manager user attribute, as follows:

  • If the manager username is using the firstName  lastName format (John Doe), the following expression can be leveraged:

String.toLowerCase(String.substring(appuser.managerUserName, 0, 1) + String.substringAfter(appuser.managerUserName, " ") + "@domain.com")

 

(Example using the initial of the first name and last name and adding the required domain, all lowercase)
String expression 

  • If the manager username is using the initial of the firstName  lastName format (JDoe), the following expression can be leveraged:

String.toLowerCase(appuser.managerUserName) + "@domain.com"

String expression
