Working with the WorkdayIWS.config file

If you update any of the following attributes, you must also update the <isEncrypted> attribute:
  • For REST: client ID, client secret, or non-expiring refresh token
  • For WSDL: username or password
When using the REST report service, the client ID, client secret, and non-expiring refresh token are encrypted. When using WSDL, the username and password are encrypted.
  1. Open the 
    WorkdayIWS.config
     file using Notepad.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • For non-sensitive data such as WDURL or <SyncConfiguredFields>: modify the configuration details and save the file.
    • For sensitive data, set the <isEncrypted> attribute to 
      false
      . For the REST report service type, enter the client ID, client secret, and the non-expiring refresh token in clear text. For WSDL, enter the values for username and password in clear text.
    All sensitive data for a report service type must be re-entered in clear text when any sensitive data for that report service type is modified.
  3. Save the 
    WorkdayIWS.config
     file.
