AI search for Workday

Search across Workday HR data, benefits, payroll, and more alongside SharePoint, ServiceNow, and every other enterprise system. One search box. Instant answers.

Workday meets enterprise AI search

Workday contains critical HR information that employees need daily: PTO balances, benefits details, org charts, compensation data, and company policies. But Workday's native search is limited to its own data. QueryNow Search connects to Workday via MCP connectors, indexes authorized content, and surfaces Workday answers alongside results from every other enterprise system.

Use cases

PTO and benefits lookup

"What's our PTO policy?" returns the actual policy document from Workday and SharePoint, with your current balance pre-loaded.

Expense report submission

"Submit my expense report for the team lunch" triggers an action agent that pre-fills the Workday expense form and routes it for approval.

Org chart and people search

"Who is the VP of Engineering?" returns the answer from Workday's org data, including direct reports, location, and contact information.

Benefits comparison

"What dental plans are available?" surfaces benefits details from Workday alongside any related SharePoint documents explaining plan differences.

Onboarding information

New employees search for onboarding tasks, required trainings, and first-week checklist items that span Workday, SharePoint, and ServiceNow.

Compliance and policy search

"What is our parental leave policy?" returns the current policy from Workday HR with any supplemental documents from SharePoint.

How integration works

01: MCP Connector Setup

We configure a Workday MCP connector that authenticates via OAuth 2.0 and connects to Workday's REST APIs. Read-only access. No data modification.

02: Content Indexing

The connector crawls authorized Workday objects: employee profiles, policies, benefits, compensation structures, and org data. Content is vectorized and indexed in Azure AI Search.

03: Security Trimming

Workday's role-based access controls are mapped to search permissions. An HR manager sees different results than an individual contributor.

04: Action Agent Configuration

For task completion (expense submission, PTO requests), we configure action agents that interact with Workday's API to execute workflows on behalf of the user.

05: Continuous Sync

Azure Logic Apps schedule regular crawls to keep the search index current. New employees, policy changes, and benefits updates appear in search results within hours.
