Argyle Open Network (Beta)

Initiate integration

To integrate your payroll platform with Argyle Open Network, provide:

How users authenticate to your payroll platform.
The mappings and location of income and employment data.

You can submit this information by sending a POST request to https://integrations.argyle.com/api/v1/spec with this information in the request body as the “specification payload”:

Example specification payoload:

{
    "integration": "ABC Payroll",
    "auth": {
        "request": {
            "url": "https://api.abcpayroll.com/auth",
            "method": "post",
            "comment": "Provide JSON with `username` and `password`"
        },
        "method": "bearer_token",
        "comment": "Accepts _TOKEN cookie as well"
    },
    "mappings": [
        {
            "url": "https://api.datacustodianx.com/profiles.json",
            "provides": [
                "profiles.full_name",
                "profiles.dob",
                "..."
            ],
            "comment": "Extract first and last name from profiles.full_name"
        },
        {
            "url": "api.datacustodianx.com/paystubs.json",
            "provides": [
                "paystubs.gross_pay",
                "paystubs.net_pay",
                "..."
            ]
        }
    ]
}

curl --request POST \
     --url https://integrations.argyle.com/api/v1/spec \
     --header 'accept: application/json' \
     --header 'content-type: application/json' \
     --data '
      {
          "specification payload goes here"
      }
      '

You will receive the below notification when you have successfully submitted your specification:

Specification received. Thank you.

You can submit an updated specification as many times as needed. We will incorporate the most recent version that has been submitted.

Specification payload

Include a name for your payroll integration in the specification payload:

Attribute	Type	Description	Requirement
`integration`	string	Name of the integration.	required

User authentication

Include information on how users authenticate to your payroll platform in an auth object in the specification payload. Argyle will authenticate users on their behalf to your payroll platform with this information. Use the comment fields to provide additional information if needed.

Attribute	Type	Description	Requirement
`auth.request.url`	string	URL to submit user credentials for authentication.	required
`auth.request.method`	string	HTTP request method for submitting user credentials (typically POST, GET, PUT, or PATCH).	required
`auth.request.comment`	string	Further information advising how to make HTTP requests on your platform.	optional
`auth.method`	string	HTTP authentication method for submitting user credentials. Common methods: `basic_auth` (Basic access authentication), `api_key` (API key in query/header/cookie), `bearer_token` (Bearer token), `digest_auth` (Digest access authentication), `oauth_1.0`, `oauth_2.0`.	required
`auth.comment`	string	Further information advising how to authenticate HTTP requests on your platform.	optional

Data mapping

Include information on the mappings and location of income and employment data in a mappings object in the specification payload. The mappings object should contain an array of objects, each of which should include:

Attribute	Type	Description	Requirement
`mappings.url`	string	URL of the endpoint where the income and employment data fields are provided.	required
`mappings.provides`	object	An array of data field names provided at the endpoint.	required
`mappings.comment`	string	Further information you can provide about your data schema.	optional

We will map your data fields to Argyle’s data schema, which consists of 160+ income and employment data fields. Upon user consent, Argyle will retrieve requested income and employment data from your payroll platform. If your security policy limits outgoing traffic, ensure that your conditions allow for API calls by whitelisting all outgoing traffic from Argyle. These two content sources would need to be included at minimum:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy"
        content="connect-src https://*.argyle.com; worker-src 'self' blob: "/>

Next steps

Argyle will contact you in connection with completing the integration with your platform. You can also contact us if you have any questions.
