CData Connect AI — Workday Skill

⚠️ Prerequisites — load these first

• connect-ai-base skill

Before proceeding, locate and read the connect-ai-base skill. If it is not available in the current environment (not loaded, not enabled, or not installed), stop immediately. Do not proceed with the task. Tell the user that the connect-ai-base skill is required and ask them to install and enable it before continuing.

This skill provides Workday-specific guidance for querying Workday data through CData Connect AI. It composes on top of the connect-ai-base skill, which handles the discovery workflow, error recovery, SQL dialect, and three-part query naming convention.

Precedence

This skill replaces getInstructions for the Workday driver. Do not call getInstructions for Workday — the guidance it provides is already incorporated here and in the per-connection-type references. Proceed directly to schema discovery (getSchemas / getTables / getColumns) after identifying the Workday connection via getCatalogs.

Workday is a multi-schema type driver

Workday has four connection types, each set via the ConnectionType connection property in CData. The connection type changes the entire surface area the driver exposes — the schema list, the data model, write support, and the query workflow all differ. The connection type can't be inferred from the connection name, so the first move on any Workday connection is to identify its type.
