Manually update data without Workday connector

[James.Reid]

Now that talent is GA , how do I upload worker information without the workday connector? The upload features from a csv are no longer there? 

We aren’t ready to enable the Workday connector, and it will have to comply with several policies internally that will take some time to go through the approvals 

Without the manual upload, the data is now unusable and doesn’t accurately reflect our people

Hi James - the Workday connector is essential for Talent to function post GA and supports key features such as ingestion of custom fields, granular error validations and automated syncs. The data also lands in the graph through the connector which is necessary for analytics and compliance. The direct CSV upload was a temporary and restricted ingestion method to support EAP and will not be supported now that we are GA. We will have a generic CSV S3 Connector available later in the year though. I have reached out to you directly on slack. I'm happy to continue the conversation there and can give you more context.
