Add Employee Field Mapping

Add a new employee. New employees must have at least a first name and a last name. Other fields can be included.

• First Name - The employee's first name.

• Last Name - The employee's last name.

• Hire Date (optional) - The date the employee was hired.

• All other fields are optional

• Output is Employee Id and will be set if the Add Employee call is successful

Update Employee Field Mapping

• Employee ID - Update an employee, based on employee ID. Employee ID can be retrieved from the BambooHR system, the ID is part of the URL when accessing an employee’s profile

• All other fields are optional

• Output is Status and will be set to “success” if the Update Employee call is successful. If not successful, the field will be populated with the error message.

Terminate Employee Field Mapping

• Employee ID - Employee ID can be retrieved from the BambooHR system, the ID is part of the URL when accessing an employee’s profile

• Termination Date - Date of termination. If this is in future, then the employee status will appear as “Active” until the termination date is reached.

• Employment Status - Set to “Terminated”; check your BambooHR system if the default value for the termination status has been changed.

• Output is Status and will be set to “success” if the Terminate Employee call is successful. If not successful, the field will be populated with the error message.

Add New Job Opening

We now support creating new job openings in BambooHR. Watch this quick video to see how you can achieve this.

Inbound Webhooks

OnLink can be used to consume webhooks from BambooHR and create Jira issues in real time. This allows you to create a Jira issue whenever events like hire, terminate, etc occur in BambooHR. Here’s a quick demo video.

Follow instructions in Webhook documentation to understand the basics of how OnLink works with webhooks.

Here are the config elements you will need to receive BambooHR webhook events securely:

config:auth_scheme=request_signing_bamboohr
config:signature_token=<copy Private Signature Key from BambooHR - see https://documentation.bamboohr.com/docs/webhooks>

To map fields, use format like below. You can include all fields that are listed here - https://documentation.bamboohr.com/docs/webhooks

key:id=customfield_10121 # used to update an existing ticket
map:fields.First Name=customfield_10122
map:fields.Last Name=customfield_10123

Note that the string “fields” is used only in map lines as per BambooHR response structure.
