Workday Core Connector integrations are built on a hierarchical data structure. For a data field to be included in the output file, not only must the field itself be selected, but its entire parent hierarchy (service, section, and any subfolders) must also be marked as "Include in Output". The scenario confirms the top-level "Worker Personal Data Section" is included, but the address fields reside within an intermediate "Address Data" subfolder. The most common cause for this issue is that this specific subfolder was not enabled, thus preventing any of its child fields from being processed and included in the output.

A. Marking fields as "Required" enforces data validation, causing the integration to error if the field is empty, but it does not control the inclusion of the field's column in the output.

C. The problem description explicitly states that the "Worker Personal Data Section" is already marked as "Include in Output," making this step redundant.

D. Enabling all services is an inefficient best-practice violation. It would include excessive, unnecessary data and does not represent the precise solution to the specific problem.

1. Workday Documentation

Core Connectors: Worker Guide: This guide details the structure of the Worker Core Connector. In the section covering the Configure Integration Field Attributes task

it illustrates the hierarchical nature of data sections. It explains that to output a field

the user must navigate the hierarchy and explicitly select the checkbox for each parent section and sub-section (referred to as subfolders in the UI) that contains the desired fields. If a parent like "Address Data" is not selected

its children fields will be excluded.

2. Workday Learning

Integrations Core Connectors Courseware: The lab exercises and instructional content for this course repeatedly emphasize the principle of hierarchical inclusion. A standard step in the configuration process is to expand parent sections (e.g.

Personal Data) and then explicitly enable the required sub-sections (e.g.

Address Data

Phone Data) before selecting the final fields. This reinforces that enabling a parent does not automatically enable all its children sub-sections.
