# Connect TriNet

TriNet is an HRIS integration that syncs employee, job, and compensation data to Pave via API key.

## Before you connect

* You must have the **Integration Administrator** role in TriNet before completing this integration.

## Connect TriNet to Pave


 1. Log in to [TriNet](https://identity.trinet.com/).
 2. Navigate to the **Integration Center** (within Admin / Manager).
 3. Select **Get Started** from the TriNet API section.
 4. Select **Pave** from the "Select an Integration" drop-down menu.
 5. Review the level of access being granted and select **Accept**.
 6. Copy your **Company ID**, **API Key**, and **Secret**.
 7. In Pave, go to **Connections** and find TriNet.
 8. Enter your **Company ID**, **API Key**, and **Secret** in the form.
 9. Click **Submit**.
10. Go to **Connections** and verify the TriNet integration shows as connected.

## Troubleshooting

**Connection shows in error state** The API credentials may be invalid or expired. In TriNet, navigate to **My Connected Apps** (Admin / Manager > Integration Center > My Connected Apps) and check whether the Pave connection is still active. If the credentials need to be regenerated, select **Disconnect** on the Pave app in My Connected Apps, then repeat the connection steps above to generate new credentials.

**No data appears after connecting** Verify that your API credentials are correct and that the Company ID matches your TriNet account. TriNet may take a few minutes to make data available after the initial connection.

**Data is missing or incomplete** Pave syncs active employees, employees on leave, and employees on paid leave. Terminated employees are not included. If specific employee records are missing, verify their employment status in TriNet.

## Fields that sync

Custom mappings may apply to your account.

* First name, last name
* Work email
* Employment type
* Job title, department
* City, state, country, zip code
* Start date, termination date
* Manager name, manager email
* Base pay, bonus

All compensation data syncs in USD. TriNet does not provide currency information through its API, so all pay values default to US dollars.

### Additional data

* **Compensation history**: Not supported natively. Pave syncs current compensation only through the TriNet API, but you can upload historical compensation data via CSV.
* **Custom fields**: Supported. Custom field mappings require configuration by your Pave team.
* **Benefits**: Not supported natively through the TriNet API, but you can upload benefits data via CSV.
