You can synchronize custom attributes from Personio or BambooHR with Leapsome. This article will outline why this might be helpful and how you can add custom attributes to the synchronization.
Custom Attributes
Within your HRIS, some attributes are already pre-installed by the provider. Such attributes usually cover basic employee information, such as the first name, last name, or department. However, in some cases, you might have added additional attributes to make the HRIS better fit your company’s needs. For example, you could have added sub-teams, office locations, or custom levels as custom attributes to your HRIS.
Syncing custom attributes from your HRIS allows you to have more detailed information about your teams in Leapsome. Like that, you can create an experience tailored to the needs of specific groups of employees. You no longer need to add and update this information on your own, as the integration will automate this process.
Your custom attributes from the HRIS can be used to populate the following fields in Leapsome:
- Teams
- Levels
- Leapsome custom attributes
If you want attributes from your HRIS to sync with Leapsome custom attributes, please create these attributes in Leapsome first. Learn more about setting up custom attributes in Leapsome in this article.
Syncing Custom Attributes with Leapsome
This guide will show you how to add your custom attributes to your existing integration with Personio or BambooHR. Learn how to set up an integration with an HRIS in this section.
Setup with BambooHR
An initial sync needs to be completed to activate the synchronization of custom attributes. Once your integration is set up, admins can select custom attributes to sync with Leapsome. To do that, visit the integration settings for BambooHR in Leapsome.
There, click on 'Sync custom attributes'. In the popup window, you get presented with all custom attributes from BambooHR that you can sync with Leapsome. For each attribute from BambooHR you want to sync, you have to select an attribute in Leapsome that it should represent.
