How to integrate Payfit in automation workflow?
3 simple steps to make your Payfit connected with other apps in automation workflows on WEXTL. Up to 10 minutes integration set up.
STEP 2
Connect Payfit
When prompted, authorize access to Payfit in WEXTL once. Payfit credentials are encrypted and never shared with WEXTL. Authorization will be reused in any future API calls [3].
WEXTL wants to integrate with your Payfit account. Approve?
STEP 3
Build a workflow
Build your workflow with Payfit yourself or with WEXTL® AI Builder. Connect Payfit to any available integrations [5], or use HTTP node to go beyond them.

How Payfit connects and integrates with WEXTL
Save and approve your credentials once — WEXTL® stores authorization information encrypted and reuses the authentication whenever Payfit app is called in workflows. That allows your hr automations to run without your attention, per defined schedule [7]. Explore documentation [6] for a detailed list of fields that Payfit supports.
The following table illustrates what fields Payfit integration require during authorization flow inside our workflow builder [4].
Video slide demonstrates how Payfit is connected in WEXTL builder [4].
| Field | Type | Help |
|---|---|---|
Client IDRequired | text | The client ID given by PayFit when the partnership was established. Use the following redirect uri value: |
Client SecretRequired | password | The client Secret given by PayFit when the partnership was established. |
Connect Payfit to popular apps on WEXTL
Enter a name of the other app you want to sync with Payfit below. Click on selected app to explore integration options with Payfit. If the app you search for is not available in WEXTL yet, you can use HTTP node [10] instead to integrate it directly.
Example automation with Payfit integration
Select Watch Collaborators Contracts trigger from Payfit - this will be a starting point in your automation. Whenever event happens in Payfit, workflow will start [7] from Watch Collaborators Contracts node.
Search for Create a Collaborator, connect it as the next step of integration sequence. You can use filters between Watch Collaborators Contracts and Create a Collaborator, so only important data pass from Watch Collaborators Contracts to the next step. WEXTL gives you full control over the process of Payfit automation. All parts of workflow are visible on the canvas [4].
Payfit on WEXTL has 33 modules for combining hr automations. Explore Payfit documentation for more.
Video slide demonstrates how Watch Collaborators Contracts and Create a Collaborator [6] nodes are used in Payfit workflow.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about automating Payfit in your workflows.
Payfit has 3 triggers, including "Watch Absences", "Watch Collaborators Contracts", and "Watch Contracts". Triggers are start points of the workflow, and automations may start from them.
Integration has 30 actions, including "Get Accounting Data", "Get Accounting V2 Data", and "Get a Collaborator", and more. Refer to our Payfit Documentation for detailed inputs and outputs.
No. Most automations are built visually on the canvas by picking triggers, actions, and mapping fields. You can add custom JavaScript with Functions when advanced logic is needed — but our customers do that in rare cases [4].
Yes. Connections are authenticated per account, credentials are encrypted at rest, and you can enforce approvals and team-level access controls on any automation.
The Payfit integration on WEXTL runs directly on its vendor public API — every field name, authentication method, and rate limit is controlled by Payfit official API and covered in documentation [3]. WEXTL handles the request signing and pagination for you.
Absolutely. Where Payfit provides native webhooks, you can use instant triggers to eliminate polling delay. For custom webhooks, WEXTL offers Custom Webhook node, so you can start automation whenever Payfit or any other service sends event to webhook URL.
WEXTL is an AI-first visual canvas. The platform allows you to describe automation in plain text — and AI will wire nodes for Payfit inside the workflow builder [4]. You can also use built-in workflow nodes (AI Agent, Human in the Loop, Condition, Aggregate Results) in pair with Payfit modules to craft complex integration flows with branches, filtering, and conditional logic. There are absolutely no limits of what you can build.
