Once a candidate has accepted an offer, you can push their data into BambooHR to kick off the new employee onboarding process.

The Bamboo integration is available on all plans:

When pushing a candidate from Ashby to BambooHR, the following candidate details are included by default:

You also have the option to sync additional BambooHR fields as Offer custom fields  (more on creating these fields at Custom FieldsCustom Fields).

We currently support syncing fields associated with the Job Information and Employee Stock Options tables in BambooHR. These values are sent to BambooHR if included in the candidate's offer form.

To set up the BambooHR integration, navigate to the BambooHR page in Admin .

Input your BambooHR API Key and Subdomain to integrate the two applications.

When the integration is enabled, you also have two additional fields: Resume Sync and Offer Letter Sync. You can select the file category you would like the candidate's resume and offer letter added to via these two fields when candidate data is pushed to BambooHR. For more information, see BambooHR's documentation on folders .

You can use the drop-down to view file categories in BambooHR (so long as the API key has access to them). If you change the API key for the integration, the categories are re-pulled.

To turn off this option, select Choose a File Category from the drop-down menu.

When a candidate accepts an offer, you see an option to push the hired candidate to BambooHR via an activity on their profile. Clicking Add to BambooHR creates a new employee in the system, including that latest offer data.

After the candidate accepts the offer and is marked as Hired, Ashby can automatically sync their data to BambooHR.

To enable this:

Yes, we support pushing non-USD currency from Ashby to BambooHR; however, the currency formatting is sent to BambooHR in the format their API requires.

It is not currently possible to send an amended start date to BambooHR if the candidate has already been pushed.

We now support syncing country and state values via the BambooHR integration. Check the country and state boxes on the BambooHR Fields Available To Sync table on the integration's settings page to begin syncing these fields.

To sync a value for the state field, you must also provide a value for the country field. This is a requirement on BambooHR's side. If only a value for state is provided, the push to BambooHR fails.

Not at this time.

You can! Once a candidate is marked as hired, click the Select Post Hire Integrations button on the Add candidate to Post Hire Integrations activity generated on their profile.

From here, use the checkboxes to determine the HRIS systems the candidate should be added to.

We currently support syncing fields associated with the Job Information and Employee Stock Options tables in BambooHR. If you'd like to sync over additional fields from other tables, reach out to your customer success manager (CSM) or Support so they can submit a feature request for you.

When adding a candidate to BambooHR, you must include a birth date if you are also pushing payroll details, as this automatically adds the candidate to their payroll product, which requires a birth date. If you add information to BambooHR-synced payroll-specific fields but don't add a birth date, you receive an error stating that the candidate cannot be added without that information. If you don't wish to collect birth dates in Ashby, you must un-sync all payroll fields (like Pay Schedule) in the integration settings .

If the BambooHR API key is updated in the integration settings, the custom fields are still synced. If you have added additional options to any of the custom fields within Ashby, those are archived. For example, if you have a custom field called Employment Type with values of Full-time and Part-time that came from the BambooHR sync and then added a new Contractor option in Ashby (not in BambooHR), when you update the API key, only Full-time and Part-time show as options for that field and Contractor is removed.
