Why teams connect Atlassian and Workday
Connect the financial records in Workday with the work happening in Atlassian, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.
Workday holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Atlassian is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.
Stacksync keeps Compensation, Time Off and Absence, Payroll Results, Suppliers in Workday and Jira Issues, Jira Projects, Boards and Sprints, Issue Comments in Atlassian in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Atlassian keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Workday is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.
There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.
Common use cases
- Replicate worker, organization, and compensation data into a secured database for people analytics without giving analysts tenant access.
- Push completed payroll results into a finance system or data warehouse each pay cycle.
- Mirror Jira projects into a SQL database for engineering throughput and SLA reporting.
- Create Jira issues from records in other systems, such as onboarding tasks generated from a closed-won CRM deal.
Where Atlassian tracks people or companies: one identity
A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.
Where Atlassian handles customer conversations: billing context in view
Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Workday next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.
Where Atlassian collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Workday
Payment and charge activity flows into Workday as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.
What you can sync between Atlassian and Workday
Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

| Confluence Pages Documentation content readable and writable through the Confluence REST API. | Custom Reports (RaaS) Tenant-defined reports exposed as web service endpoints, often the practical read surface for syncs. | |
| Confluence Spaces Namespaces that scope page syncs and permissions. | Workers The central HCM record covering employment, job, and personal data; the anchor of most syncs. | |
| Jira Issues The central work item, synced two-way with CRMs, support desks, and other trackers. | Organizations Supervisory and company hierarchies read to drive routing and reporting in other systems. | |
| Jira Projects Containers that scope issues, workflows, and permissions for a sync. | Positions Job seats synced with recruiting and planning tools. | |
