Paydays endpoint

Ensuring every employee in our system gets paid on time is our top priority. That’s why we validate that all payroll resources have a payday on which banks are open.

While a company is familiar with their pay frequency, selecting a valid payday for each pay period can be a hassle. To help, we’ve added a new endpoint that returns one year of valid paydays, and their approval deadlines, from today or from the optional start date query parameter. You can use this endpoint to display payday options to your users to help them seamlessly configure and run their payrolls.

A GET request to the /paydays endpoint will receive a standard list response that includes:

  • next: a link to the next page of results
  • previous: a link to the previous page of results
  • results: a sorted array of items with a payday and its corresponding approval_deadline, which spans one year of dates.
