Microsoft Azure Migration - 8 August 2020

We are preparing to move our entire infrastructure to Microsoft Azure and as a result of some timeout limitations in Azure, we need to change the URL of our SOAP API web services.

The change involves the current URL of our SOAP end points changing as follows:

  • Current: https://secure.payspace.com/integration/
  • Changing to: https://classicapi.payspace.com/

 

  • For example, the Employee Basic Profile end point URL is currently:
  • https://secure.payspace.com/integration/employee/employeedetails.asmx.
  • This will now be changing to:
  • https://classicapi.payspace.com/employee/employeedetails.asmx.

The new URL is available as of immediate effect and we urge you to make the change as soon as possible and test that there are no unforeseen issues. The infrastructure change did take place on Saturday 11 July 2020. The current URL will still remain in place and be available after this date, however, there will be a time out limit of 2.5 minutes from this date onwards on the current URL. This will impact long running requests such as the Employee Changes end point. The new URL will not have a time out limit and will function as you are used to.

PaySpace API Integration

PaySpace API Integration / Web Services Integration makes it easy for customers and developers to integrate PaySpace with a variety of 3rd party applications including existing on-premise solutions. With a complement of SOAP web services, it is easy to integrate with PaySpace the way you need it most.

API Integration Key Benefits & Features

  • Web services integration for core employee operations.
  • Real-time transactional and master data integration.
  • Enables you to leverage existing skills such as Microsoft .NET or Java or any other development language that supports SOAP-based web services.
  • Ability to track data transactions for audit purposes and reliable integrations.
  • Comprehensive error handling that returns errors per employee request.
  • Manage web service requests by using standard PaySpace authentication, authorisation and encryption.

Examples of what clients do with PaySpace integration web services:

  • Push employee data into PaySpace from global ERP products such as SAP, Oracle and Successfactors.
  • Retrieve calculated payslip values to use for reporting purposes in 3rd party products.
  • Pull new employee data or data that has changed to populate 3rd party applications, ERP solutions or intranet environments.
  • Pull employee data to populate Active Directory or to de-activate user profiles when terminated.
  • Pull leave transaction data to populate time and attendance solutions.
  • Pull general ledger details to feed accounting systems.
