How it Works

BambooHR and Aboard sync with each other every 1 hour, and can be synced manually every 30 mins after the last sync. As soon as a new user is added to BambooHR, that user is auto-added to Aboard (as a Member) along with the following information:

  • First Name, Last Name, Preferred Name

  • Personal Email, Work Email

  • Title, Manager, Department, Start Date

  • Location, Birth Date

Aboard then creates a Draft Journey and includes any Default Programs and then notifies all Super Admin via email and/or Slack.

Setup

1. Go to Settings, then Integrations:


2. Click Connect and type in your organization's unique BambooHR URL:


3. Follow on screen prompts from BambooHR and the connection will be established
