Albato is the best alternative to Zapier because it’s about 30% cheaper, making it perfect for small businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs who want to save money on automation tools. Unlike other automation platforms, Albato has preserved its original no-code approach, so you don’t need any technical skills to set up automations between Power BI and Workday. It’s super easy to use, and you can create powerful workflows without the hassle.

What really sets Albato apart is its excellent customer support — you get real people helping you, no matter which plan you’re on. So if you're looking for a more affordable, user-friendly solution for integrating Power BI and Workday, Albato is the way to go!

Does Power BI integrate with Workday on the free plan?

Yes, you can integrate Power BI with Workday using Albato's free plan. Upon registration, you receive a 7-day trial with full access to all features, allowing you to set up and test your Workday and Power BI integration without limitations. After the trial, the free plan provides 100 transactions and up to 5 active automations, enabling you to maintain your Power BI Workday integration at no cost.

How to connect Workday to Power BI for scheduled syncs?

To sync Workday with Power BI on a scheduled basis, Albato offers flexible scheduling options for your integrations. Whether you need data synchronization or workflow triggers at specific times, days of the week, or custom intervals, you can achieve this easily using API triggers. Simply configure the “Set Schedule” option to define the desired frequency—hourly, on specific weekdays, on selected days of the month, or through a fully customized schedule. Additionally, Albato provides the Scheduled Trigger, which allows you to activate your scenario according to your personalized timetable. This makes Power BI integration with Workday seamless and tailored to your specific needs.

Does Power BI integrate with Workday in real time?

Yes, Power BI integrates with Workday in real time using Albato's flexible trigger system. This system supports two types of triggers: Webhook Triggers and API Triggers.
Webhook Triggers: These triggers activate your Power BI integration with Workday instantly when a specified event occurs in the source application. They enable immediate data transfer and real-time synchronization between your applications.
API Triggers: These triggers poll your system for new events at regular intervals—every 15 minutes, 10 minutes, or as frequently as every minute, depending on your subscription plan. While not instantaneous, they provide near real-time Power BI and Workday integration.
You can identify the type of trigger by specific icons during the automation setup process in Albato. This allows you to choose the most suitable method for your Workday integration with Power BI, ensuring your workflows operate according to your requirements.

How to connect Power BI to Workday?

Setting up an integration between Power BI and Workday on Albato is simple and requires no technical skills. Just follow these steps:

Log in to your Albato account. If you don’t have one yet, sign up — it's quick and easy.
Go to the Integrations section and select Power BI and Workday from the list of available apps.
Choose triggers and actions. You’ll need to define an event in Power BI (the trigger) that will cause an action in Workday, such as sending data or creating an entry.
Map the fields. Use Albato’s data mapping tool to match specific fields between Power BI and Workday, ensuring accurate data transfer.

Once the integration is live, data will flow seamlessly between Power BI and Workday, automating your workflows and saving you time.

How to connect Power BI to Workday to sync historical data?

To sync Power BI with Workday and transfer historical data, Albato provides a dedicated Migration Mode. This feature allows you to retrieve and send data from past periods, unlike real-time synchronization, which triggers automation only for new events occurring after setup.
With Migration Mode, you can configure the transfer of data from any desired timeframe—whether for all historical records or through periodic migrations. To check if Migration Mode is available for your Workday integration with Power BI, log in to your Albato account, select the trigger event for your app, and look for the Migration Mode icon. If it's not visible or you need further clarification, feel free to contact our customer support team for assistance.

How to connect Workday to Power BI for two-way synchronization?

To integrate Workday with Power BI for two-way synchronization, Albato uses a system of triggers and actions. You can link Power BI to Workday by setting up two separate automations. The first automation sent data from Power BI to Workday. For instance, when a record is created or updated in Power BI, the automation ensures the changes are reflected in Workday. The second automation works in reverse, updating Power BI when changes occur in Workday.
To avoid infinite loops or duplicate updates, apply filters—such as updating only when specific data changes—and use unique record identifiers. This approach ensures seamless Workday Power BI integration and keeps your data consistent across both platforms.
