How to Use the UKG Pro MCP in Google ADK
Run structured queries on HR data using UKG Pro with the Google ADK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect UKG Pro MCP to Google ADK
Create your Vinkius account to connect UKG Pro to Google ADK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Get specific employee details.
The `employees` tool retrieves a single worker's profile directly from UKG Pro. This allows your agent to pinpoint exact records needed for deeper analysis within the BigQuery environment. Pairing this with other data sources lets you build complex reports that start with a simple employee lookup.
List organization components.
You can run `organizations` to map out the entire component structure of your company in UKG Pro. This list helps frame how different departments or units report up. This tool is useful for giving context to payroll queries, ensuring you're looking at records from the correct corporate unit.
Access current pay period records.
The `payroll` function pulls all necessary payroll data for the active cycle. Your agent can then reason over this large set of financial records using Gemini models. Since the Google ADK supports long-context reasoning, you can analyze these payroll results and cross-reference them against job codes or employee IDs.
