This one needs environment variables set before it will start: WORKDAY_TENANT (Workday tenant slug, e.g. `acme` for https://wd5.myworkday.com/acme.), WORKDAY_HOST (Workday data-center host (default wd5.myworkday.com).), WORKDAY_WS_PORT (Override the fetchproxy WebSocket port (default 37149).). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Workday MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Workday MCP?

Workday MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package workday-mcp was installed 474 times last week.

How do I connect Workday MCP?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls workday-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Workday MCP?

The npm package workday-mcp was installed 474 times in the last week. Week over week that is +222%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Workday MCP open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
