Ceridian Dayforce
Add Ceridian Dayforce to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed a Ceridian Dayforce integration so your customers can work their own employee, payroll, time, and schedule data from inside your product, with governed agent access to the same records. HR data is sensitive, so access is scoped per tenant, limited to the fields you map, and every read and write is logged, which means you expose only what your product actually needs rather than the whole employee record. fastn handles each customer's credentials and API upkeep.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers sync their own employee and org data into your product, mapped to their fields.
Read time entries and schedules so your product plans against real availability.
Read payroll results so downstream reporting in your product runs on current numbers.
Trigger your product on a new hire, a departure, or a schedule change so provisioning follows automatically.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent answers a manager's question about an employee's schedule or time balance.
An agent submits a time or schedule change within governed permissions, with the action audited.
An agent reacts to a new hire event and starts onboarding across connected systems.
Example prompt
List employees starting in the next two weeks and show which onboarding steps are still outstanding.
Set up Ceridian Dayforce in 4 steps
- 01Open the Ceridian Dayforce connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authenticate their Dayforce instance with least-privilege credentials.
- 03Map the employee, time, and payroll fields your product uses, then enable actions and triggers.
- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the Ceridian Dayforce integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a Ceridian Dayforce integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Ceridian Dayforce account inside your product and work their employees, employment records and working time there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: HR data is sensitive and its access rules are stricter than most systems. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so a Ceridian Dayforce update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Ceridian Dayforce connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you keep people data current without manual re-entry without wiring it twice.

Ceridian Dayforce integration FAQ
How do I add a Ceridian Dayforce integration to my product?
Enable the Ceridian Dayforce connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Ceridian Dayforce account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Ceridian Dayforce client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Ceridian Dayforce account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Ceridian Dayforce account and only ever sees their own employees, employment records and working time. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Ceridian Dayforce integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent answers a manager's question about an employee's schedule or time balance.
Who maintains the Ceridian Dayforce integration?
fastn does. When Ceridian Dayforce changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
How is sensitive Ceridian Dayforce employee data handled?
Access is scoped per tenant and limited to the fields you map, credentials are encrypted, and every read and write is logged. You expose only what your product actually needs rather than the whole employee record.
Can joiner, mover and leaver changes be automated?
Yes. Where Ceridian Dayforce is where a hire, a role change or a departure is recorded, that change can trigger downstream provisioning or removal across the customer's other connected systems. Where Ceridian Dayforce sits downstream of the HR system of record, the same event can be pushed into it so its worker list, schedules and access stay in step, which is where most of the manual effort sits.
What can I build with the Ceridian Dayforce integration?
A common starting point: sync their own employee and org data into your product, mapped to their fields. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Ceridian Dayforce integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Ceridian Dayforce does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
