What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Auto-distribute monthly headcount and attrition reports to leadership folders

When Workday generates monthly workforce reports, automatically save formatted files to designated Google Drive folders by department or executive. Include timestamp and metadata in filenames for version control. Keep leadership teams updated without manual report distribution.

Sync new hire documents from Google Drive into Workday employee records

When managers upload signed offer letters, I-9 forms, or onboarding documents to Google Drive folders, automatically attach them to the corresponding employee record in Workday. Match files to employees using structured folder naming or filename conventions. Eliminate manual document uploads into the HRIS.

Archive terminated employee files from Workday to compliance storage folders

When an employee is marked as terminated in Workday, automatically export their complete employee file and save it to a secure, date-stamped Google Drive archive folder. Include all HR documents, performance reviews, and compensation history. Maintain compliance records without manual exports.

Upload budget templates from Google Drive to trigger Workday planning cycles

When finance teams finalize budget planning templates in Google Drive, automatically import data into Workday financial planning modules. Map spreadsheet columns to Workday budget fields and trigger planning workflow approvals. Eliminate copy-paste between Excel and Workday.

Generate org chart exports and share automatically with recruiting team folders

On a scheduled basis, export current organizational structure, open headcount, and reporting relationships from Workday and save formatted org charts to recruiting team Google Drive folders. Keep talent acquisition teams aligned with real-time org data for pipeline planning.

Alert HR when employee documents in Drive require Workday record updates

Monitor shared Google Drive folders where employees submit address changes, emergency contact updates, or direct deposit forms. When new documents appear, notify HR and pre-fill Workday update forms with extracted data. Reduce lag time between document submission and system updates.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Google Drive and Workday with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands Workday's HR and financial data structures alongside Google Drive's file organization, permissions, and metadata conventions.

AI that knows Workday schemas and Drive file structures

Redbird maps Workday employee fields, organizational hierarchies, and financial dimensions to Google Drive folder structures, file naming patterns, and access permissions. It recognizes report formats from Workday's custom report writer, handles Excel exports with multiple sheets, and preserves data relationships. The AI understands when to attach files to worker records, how to structure compliance archives, and which stakeholders need access based on org hierarchy.
