| description | RUN Powered by ADP integration via Apideck's HRIS unified API — same methods work across every connector in HRIS, switch by changing `serviceId`. Use when the user wants to read or sync employees, departments, payrolls, and time-off records in RUN Powered by ADP. Routes through Apideck with serviceId "adp-run".

RUN Powered by ADP (via Apideck)
Access RUN Powered by ADP through Apideck's HRIS unified API — one of 58 HRIS connectors that share the same method surface. Code you write here ports to BambooHR, Workday, Deel and 54 other HRIS connectors by changing a single serviceId string. Apideck handles auth, pagination, rate limiting, and retries so you don't write per-tenant RUN Powered by ADP plumbing.
Beta connector. RUN Powered by ADP is currently in beta on Apideck. Expect partial resource coverage and occasional mapping gaps. Always verify coverage (see below) and fall back to the Proxy API for unsupported operations.
Quick facts
When to use this skill
Activate this skill when the user explicitly wants to work with RUN Powered by ADP — for example, "sync employees in RUN Powered by ADP" or "list time-off requests in RUN Powered by ADP". This skill teaches the agent:
- Which Apideck unified API covers RUN Powered by ADP (HRIS)
- The correct
serviceId to pass on every call (adp-run)
- RUN Powered by ADP-specific auth and coverage caveats
For the full method surface (parameters, pagination, filtering), use your language SDK skill:
For the raw OpenAPI spec:
Minimal example (TypeScript)
import { Apideck } from "@apideck/unify";
const apideck = new Apideck({
apiKey: process.env.APIDECK_API_KEY,
appId: process.env.APIDECK_APP_ID,
consumerId: "your-consumer-id",
});
const { data } = await apideck.hris.employees.list({
serviceId: "adp-run",
});
Portable across 58 HRIS connectors
The Apideck HRIS unified API exposes the same methods for every connector in its catalog. Switching from RUN Powered by ADP to another HRIS connector is a one-string change — no rewrite, no new SDK.
await apideck.hris.employees.list({ serviceId: "adp-run" });
await apideck.hris.employees.list({ serviceId: "bamboohr" });
await apideck.hris.employees.list({ serviceId: "workday" });
This is the compounding advantage of using Apideck over integrating RUN Powered by ADP directly: code against the unified HRIS API once, gain access to every connector in it. New connectors Apideck adds become available to your app without code changes.
Authentication
- Type: OAuth 2.0
- Managed by: Apideck Vault — Apideck handles the full OAuth dance (authorization code flow, token exchange, refresh). Never ask the user for API keys or tokens directly.
- User setup: Users authorize via the Vault modal. Connection state progresses
available → added → authorized → callable.
- Token refresh: automatic. Expired tokens are refreshed transparently on the next API call.
See apideck-best-practices for Vault setup, connection lifecycle, and handling re-auth flows.
Verifying coverage
Not every HRIS operation is supported by every connector. Always verify before assuming a method works:
curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/connector/connectors/adp-run' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
-H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}"
See apideck-connector-coverage for patterns around UnsupportedOperationError and connector-specific fallbacks.
Escape hatch: Proxy API
When an endpoint isn't covered by the HRIS unified API, use Apideck's Proxy to call RUN Powered by ADP directly — Apideck injects auth headers and handles token refresh. Set x-apideck-downstream-url to the target endpoint on RUN Powered by ADP's own API:
curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/proxy' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
-H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}" \
-H "x-apideck-consumer-id: ${CONSUMER_ID}" \
-H "x-apideck-service-id: adp-run" \
-H "x-apideck-downstream-url: <target endpoint on RUN Powered by ADP>" \
-H "x-apideck-downstream-method: GET"
See RUN Powered by ADP's API docs for available endpoints.
