I am trying to enable real-time communication between two systems so that when an employee is created or updated in Paycom (payroll software), the employee record is also created or updated in Maximo.

I know that Paycom has REST APIs, which use Basic Authentication with SID and Token, and I also know their APIs support webhooks.

How do I set up Maximo to listen for Webhooks in order to create/update a Person MBO? or is there an alternative approach I should consider for this integration?

Any guidance on the best approach would be greatly appreciated.

You may need to use middleware to handle the listening component, especially if your organization is already using a middleware product.

If not, an alternative approach would be to configure an escalation/cron task and associate it with an automation script to call the Paycom API, retrieve the required details, and use the Person MboSet to add or update records in Maximo.
