# Edit .env with your Workday API credentials and tenant URIs
# Edit src/config/categories.ts with your tenant's document category WIDs
npm run buildCreate a .env file using sample-env.env as a template. Configure OAuth credentials for each environment (production, sandbox, sandbox_preview) and application settings like MAX_CONCURRENT_UPLOADS and MAX_FILE_SIZE_MB.
Files must follow the pattern: {employeeId}-{filename}.{extension}
Examples: 123456-employment-contract.pdf, 789012-performance-review.html
src/config/categories.ts with the correct WIDs. The included sample categories are for reference only and will not work with other Workday tenants.
npm start upload # Upload documents with interactive prompts
npm start validate # Test configuration and authentication
npm start report # Generate human-readable report from logs
npm start report -o filename.txt # Save report to fileworkdocs-demo.mp4
The upload process includes interactive environment selection, file scanning, category selection, and real-time progress tracking with detailed results.

npm run build # Compile TypeScript and copy templates
npm run dev # Development mode with ts-node
npm run clean # Clean build artifacts| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| Authentication Failed | Verify OAuth credentials and refresh tokens |
| Worker Not Found | Check employee ID format and existence in Workday |
| File Too Large | Ensure files are under size limit (default: 25MB) |
| Template Not Found | Run npm run build to copy templates |
| API Rate Limits | Reduce MAX_CONCURRENT_UPLOADS setting |
The application includes automatic retry with exponential backoff, circuit breaker patterns, and detailed logging for troubleshooting.
