# Connecting to UKG WFM

UKG WFM offers a workforce optimization platform. This platform helps teams improve compliance, scheduling, HR service delivery, reporting and analytics, time and attendance.

You can connect UKG WFM to skyData Studio to perform tasks like data ingestion, unification, transformation, and enrichment to gain insights from the data. Leverage skyData's built-in connector for importing data from UKG WFM, which supports incremental loads and multiple parallel calls to enable faster data updates, significantly reduce load times, and provide users with quicker access to up-to-date information for a more efficient workflow.

This document will guide you through the process of connecting UKG WFM to the skyData.

## Prerequisite

You need the following details to configure and import data using the <a href="https://www.ukg.in/" target="_blank">UKG⇗</a> connector:

* Username
* Password
* Client Id
* Client Secret
* UKG url
* Default activity start date
* Reload records from (days)

## To import data using the UKG WFM connector

<Note>
  In the Dataflow's **Run History Description,** you can view error messages related to data import failures from a data source. Additionally, you can check the status, start time, and end time of the data pipeline execution.
</Note>

## Next step

After completing the data import, start the [Master Data Management (MDM) - Resolve](https://docs.skypointcloud.com/docs/stitch.html) process to create a single, unified view of the data. With Skypoint MDM, you can ensure that your data is accurate, consistent, and reliable, making it easier to use for business processes, analytics, and reporting.
