Connect with an API token
-
In Paylocity:
- Paylocity issues API credentials through a reviewed access request, not a self-service screen: review the APIs you need and the Integration Requirements, then request access following the Integration Requirements guide.
- When the request is approved, Paylocity contacts you and provides OAuth credentials and a sandbox account.
Paylocity issues this credential through its API or its support team, not through its admin screens.
