Workday has no native Microsoft Teams integration. SyncRivo fills the gap.
Every HR lifecycle event routed to the right people on the right platform — without HR manually sending a single message.
New hire events from Workday route welcome messages to the department Teams channel, a manager notification to Slack, and an IT provisioning ticket to ServiceNow — all triggered automatically on Day 1.
Leave approval events route to the employee in their preferred messaging platform and to their manager in Teams, so coverage gaps are visible without checking Workday.
Review cycle reminders routed to employees in Slack and Teams simultaneously — eliminating the need for HR to manually send reminder messages each cycle.
Policy change events routed to all-hands channels across Slack, Teams, Webex, and Google Chat in a single webhook — every employee notified regardless of platform.
Organizational restructuring announcements routed to affected department channels on every messaging platform, ensuring no team is missed due to platform fragmentation.
Departure events cascade to IT in Slack with deprovisioning instructions, to HR leads in Teams with compliance checklists, and optionally to ServiceNow for ticket creation — zero manual steps.
Setup takes approximately 20–30 minutes with no custom code required.
Connect your messaging platforms
In SyncRivo, authorize your Slack workspace and Microsoft Teams tenant via OAuth2. Optionally connect Webex, Google Chat, or Zoom.
Create a SyncRivo inbound webhook endpoint
In SyncRivo, add a new Webhook source and copy the generated endpoint URL for use in Workday.
Configure a Workday outbound integration
In Workday, create an EIB or Workday Studio integration pointing to your SyncRivo endpoint. Alternatively use Workday Extend or RaaS webhooks for hire and departure events.
Configure routing rules in SyncRivo
Set rules per event type: hire events to the department Teams channel and IT in Slack, departure events to HR and IT simultaneously, policy updates to all-hands channels on every platform.
Test with a sandbox hire event
Trigger a test event from Workday sandbox and verify simultaneous delivery to your Teams channel and Slack channel.
Workday for Slack handles Slack-only deployments. SyncRivo handles multi-platform enterprises.

Workday does not have a native Microsoft Teams integration. Workday offers Slack integration via Workday for Slack, but there is no equivalent for Teams. For enterprises where HR teams, managers, or executives use Teams, configure Workday outbound webhooks or the Workday Events API to route HR events to SyncRivo, which fans the notification to Teams, Slack, Webex, Google Chat, and Zoom simultaneously.
Workday supports outbound integrations via Workday Studio, Workday RaaS (Report as a Service), or the Workday Extend developer platform. Configure a Workday outbound webhook pointing to your SyncRivo inbound endpoint. SyncRivo parses the Workday hire event payload and routes a formatted notification to your configured Teams channels — welcome messages, IT provisioning alerts, and department announcements — simultaneously on Day 1.
SyncRivo is complementary to Workday for Slack, not a replacement. If your organization spans multiple messaging platforms (Slack and Teams, or Teams and Webex), SyncRivo routes Workday HR events to all platforms simultaneously from a single webhook. It solves the gap that Workday for Slack creates — employees on Teams receive no notifications — without requiring you to change how HR uses Workday.
SyncRivo routes any Workday outbound event: new hire onboarding initiated, leave request approved, performance review due, organizational change announced, role change effective, and offboarding initiated. Each event type can have separate routing rules — onboarding notifications to the department Teams channel, offboarding alerts to IT in Slack, and policy updates to all-hands channels on every platform.
Yes. SyncRivo processes Workday payloads in isolated per-tenant environments. Field-level PII filtering is configurable — exclude sensitive fields (SSN, salary, personal address) from routing before any data reaches messaging platforms. Full audit logs capture every event processed. OAuth2 credentials for each system are stored per-tenant and never shared across customers.
A basic Workday → Teams notification for new hire onboarding takes approximately 20–30 minutes to configure. The steps are: create a SyncRivo inbound endpoint, configure a Workday outbound integration pointing to that endpoint, and create routing rules in SyncRivo to route the hire event to the correct Teams channels. More complex routing (multiple event types, conditional routing by department or location) takes 45–90 minutes.
