# Connect BambooHR

BambooHR is an HRIS integration that syncs employee, job, and compensation data to Pave via OAuth.

## Before you connect

* You must be a **BambooHR admin** to authorize the connection.
* Have your BambooHR company URL ready (for example, `yourcompany.bamboohr.com`).
* By default, Pave requests access to all employee data fields. If you want to limit what Pave can access, set up a Custom Access Level in BambooHR before connecting (see below).

### Optional: create a Custom Access Level

If your organization requires limiting Pave's access to specific employee data, create a Custom Access Level in BambooHR before authorizing:


1. In BambooHR, go to **Settings > Access Levels**.
2. Click the plus icon and select **Custom Access Levels**.
3. Under **View Only**, enable the following fields:
   * Personal > Basic Info: Employee #, First Name, Last Name, Preferred Name
   * Personal > Contact: Work Email
   * Job: Hire Date, Original Hire Date
   * Job > Employment Status: Employment Status Date, Employment Status
   * Job > Job Information: Job Information Date, Job Title, Reporting to, Department, Division, Location
   * Job > Compensation: Compensation Date, Pay Schedule, Pay Type, Pay Rate
4. Click **Save**.
5. Add the employee account you will use to authorize Pave to this Custom Access Level.
6. Make sure you are logged into BambooHR with that account when you click **Authorize** in Pave.

## Connect BambooHR to Pave


1. In Pave, go to **Connections** and find BambooHR.
2. Enter your BambooHR company URL (for example, `yourcompany` or `yourcompany.bamboohr.com`).
3. Click **Authorize**. You will be redirected to BambooHR.
4. Review the permissions Pave is requesting and click **Allow**.
5. You will be redirected back to Pave. Go to **Connections** and verify the BambooHR integration shows as connected.

## Troubleshooting

**Invalid company ID error** Make sure you entered a valid BambooHR company URL. Pave accepts the full URL (for example, `yourcompany.bamboohr.com`) or just the subdomain (for example, `yourcompany`). If you continue to have issues, contact support@pave.com.

**Connection shows as inaccessible** The authorization flow may not have completed. Go to **Connections**, find BambooHR, and click **Authorize** to restart the process.

**Data is missing or incomplete** If specific fields are missing, check your BambooHR access level settings. Pave can only sync fields that the authorizing account has permission to view. If you set up a Custom Access Level, verify that all required fields are enabled.

**Token expired** BambooHR access tokens expire periodically. Pave refreshes tokens automatically, but if the refresh fails, the integration will stop syncing. Go to **Connections**, find BambooHR, and click **Authorize** to re-establish the connection.

## Fields that sync

Custom mappings may apply to your account.

The following fields sync by default for all BambooHR connections:

* First name, last name, preferred name
* Work email
* Gender, ethnicity
* Job title, department, division
* Employment status
* Manager name, manager email
* Start date, termination date, date of birth
* Work location (city, state, country, zip code)
* Base pay (rate, currency, pay schedule, pay type)
* Commission (from BambooHR's standard commission table)
* Bonus (from BambooHR's standard bonus table)

### Additional data

* **Compensation history**: Supported. Pave syncs full compensation history from BambooHR, not just the current pay record.
* **Custom fields and custom tables**: Pave can sync additional BambooHR custom fields and custom tables beyond the defaults. Contact your Pave team to configure these.
* **Benefits**: Pave can sync benefits data from BambooHR. This is not enabled by default. Contact your Pave team to turn it on.
