Setup Paycor (Webhook)

Enabling Paycor webhooks allows you to create a Jira or JSM ticket whenever certain events (hire, terminate, employee changes) occur in Paycor. You can enable event notifications in Paycor - instructions are here: Paycor Developers Portal

Follow instructions in our Webhook documentation to understand how OnLink supports webhooks. Here are the config elements you will need to configure Paycor webhook:

config:auth_scheme=request_signing_paycor
config:signature_token=<create random secret>

This random secret needs to be entered in Paycor when configuring event subscriptions.

You can set config:validate_signature=FALSE when doing the initial build and test. This by-passes signature validation so should only be set for dev and test stages.

Here’s sample field mapping for events related to “Employee” object in Paycor.

key:employeeNumber=customfield_10121
map:firstName=customfield_10065
map:lastName=customfield_10066
map:email.emailAddress=customfield_10104
map:employmentDateData.hireDate=customfield_10105
map:workLocation.city=customfield_10053
config:summary='New Hire: ', {customfield_10065}, ' ', {customfield_10066}

Any field supported by Paycor can be mapped in this way.
