What can you do with Paychex on Tray.ai?
Paychex provides payroll, HR, and benefits services for businesses, with Paychex Flex holding worker records, pay, and tax details. Tray.ai connects to Paychex through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Paychex API alongside the rest of your stack.
