# Get the payroll workspace

`GET /payroll`

NOT available to API keys — requires an interactive admin/approver session. Returns the payroll workspace for a period (`YYYY-MM`, default current): employees, employer settings, draft/approved runs. Amounts are integer cents; rates are basis points.

## Query parameters

- `customer_id` string
- `period` string

## Response `200`

Payroll workspace.

- PayrollWorkspaceData — The payroll workspace for a period: employees, employer settings, and runs. Amounts are integer cents; rates are basis points. Interior shapes beyond the top level vary and are returned as-is.

## Other responses

- `401` — Missing or invalid bearer token.
- `403` — Insufficient scope or role — e.g. a read-scoped key on a mutating method, or an API key on an admin/approver-only endpoint.
