  Reference: Send Workday RaaS Request
layout: subsection
---

## Purpose

Use this component to call a long-running Workday RaaS report from an orchestration. The RaaS report can take up to 1 hour to respond without timing out the orchestration. When the response is received, the overall orchestration timeout is reset.

<b>Note:</b> When viewing logs for a long-running RaaS request, you might notice the addition of the text `dsa` to the endpoint URL. This has no bearing on the request's performance. You can safely ignore it.

## <a id="section_2"></a>Template Availability

This component is available in these orchestration templates:

-   Asynchronous
-   Business Process
-   Integration System


<b>Note:</b> You can't use this component in join loops.

## <a id="section_1"></a>Properties

Provide a meaningful <b>Reference Name</b> for the step as it will appear in your orchestration.

Alongside the prepopulated GET method and Workday API address, add a namespace as a string in the Expression Builder.

<b>The General Tab</b>

Use this tab to specify the type of authentication your request uses. You can create authentication types on the <b>Credentials</b> tab in your orchestration's <b>Settings</b>. Types you create there are available from the drop-down menu here.

Select a <b>Content Type</b> for the step's output.

<b>Note:</b> This property doesn't determine the format of the Workday RaaS response. To specify that, create a key called `format` on the <b>Query Parameters</b> tab and provide the required type as its value.

<b>The Headers Tab</b>

Use this tab to add HTTP headers, providing a name and value for each.

<b>The Query Parameters Tab</b>

Use this tab to add URL query parameters in the form of key/value pairs.

Orchestration Builder automatically inserts the leading `?` and joins parameters with `&`, appending both to the end of the URL.

<b>The Settings Tab</b>

Use this tab to configure these request and response details:

-   Connect Timeout: the time allowed for a client-server connection to establish.
-   Retry Settings: select a predefined Retry policy. You can create Retry policies on the HTTP Retries tab of your orchestration's <b>Settings</b>.
