1. Open the Connections page of the CData Connect Cloud dashboard.

2. Click + Add Connection in the upper-right corner.

4. On the Basic Settings tab of the new connection, enter a connection name or keep the default name.

5. Enter the following information:

   • Company Id—the Company Id used when logging into your Paylocity account. This value also appears in the top left corner of any application within Paylocity after you log in.

   • RSA Public Key—the RSA key associated with your Paylocity account.

   • Key—(Optional) the base64-encoded AES symmetric key used to encrypt CData Connect Cloud content.

   • IV—(Optional) the base64-encoded AES initialization vector (IV) to use when encrypting content.

6. At the top of the CData Connect Cloud Add Paylocity Connection page, click Save & Test.

   • If the connection test succeeds, a message indicates that your connection has been created.
