Which security group type allows third-party users access to Workday for specific tasks?

Integration system security groups are specifically designed to grant third-party users access to Workday for defined tasks. These groups are crucial for managing and establishing secure connections between Workday and external applications, allowing external systems to perform actions in Workday while still maintaining strict security protocols.

Third-party users typically require a specific scope of access that is tightly controlled, which is where integration system security groups come into play. By configuring these groups, organizations can ensure that external applications have access only to the data and functionalities they need, without exposing unnecessary information or capabilities. This is essential for compliance and data protection, as it minimizes the potential risk of unauthorized access.

While user-defined groups allow organizations to create custom security groups tailored to their needs, and role-based security groups establish access based on user roles within the organization, they do not specifically cater to third-party integrations in the same way. Standard security groups provide baseline access privileges but may not offer the same level of customization for third-party interactions as integration system security groups do.
