The BambooHR integration for HiThrive provides a one-way data sync of employee details from your BambooHR instance to your HiThrive team. This integration also provides single sign-on access for users to access HiThrive (admin, manager reporting, and reward redemption portal) directly from their BambooHR dashboard.
Please follow the steps below to enable the integration.

Synchronization frequency and security
HiThrive automatically imports your BambooHR user data on a nightly basis over an encrypted HTTP connection. Only the fields listed above are saved to a HiThrive user’s profile – no other employee details are accessed or saved.
Configuring the integration
- In the HiThrive admin view, navigate to Integrations under Settings. Select the BambooHR Integration
- To begin linking your BambooHR account to HiThrive, you will need to request an API Key from BambooHR. HiThrive's integration automates this process.
- Enter the subdomain (xyz.bamboohr.com) into the subdomain field.
- Click Connect BambooHR to continue the authorization process.
- You will be redirected to BambooHR and prompted to login to your BambooHR account
- Once you have successfully logged in, BambooHR will redirect you back to the HiThrive admin view with a confirmation message that your BambooHR instance has been configured correctly.
- You’re all set! HiThrive will begin syncing user data from BambooHR overnight. If this integration requires your attention for any reason, you’ll receive an email from HiThrive prompting you to re-connect your BambooHR instance.
