BambooHR - How do I link using OAuth?

Last updated: May 31, 2025

Overview

To authenticate BambooHR via OAuth, you will need to provide your BambooHR account credentials.

Prerequisites

Please ensure you fulfill all the requirements to set up the integration:

  • You have Full-Admin access in your company's BambooHR instance, or someone has shared their access with you

    OR

  • You have a Custom Access Level with sufficient access

    • If your use case is basic user provisioning, please see this article on enabling sufficient access

    • If your use case requires more data than basic user provisioning, here are some guidelines:

      • You should set your Access Level to view "All Employees", otherwise the data synced will be missing employee records

      • You should allow View Access to information you want to be synced

      • You should allow View Access to view your section to ensure your record is also synced

You can find your access level in BambooHR by going to Settings > Access Levels

Instructions

Step 1: Add your BambooHR subdomain

You will be redirected to BambooHR to log in to your account.

Step 2: Enter your BambooHR account credentials
