Connecting BambooHR to Opensense

To map fields between BambooHR and Opensense, you first authorize access, by generating a BambooHR API key and adding it to Opensense. Once it’s authorized, Opensense can pull user data for email signature management.

After the API key is added securely, you can map specific BambooHR fields (for example, job title, department, and location) to Opensense user attributes, for consistent, dynamic signature personalization across your organization.

  1. In BambooHR, open your account menu (top right), and select API Keys.

Once the key is added to Opensense, you can sync your directory directly from the Users section in the Opensense portal.

  1. Sign in to the Opensense portal.
  2. In the left navigation, select Manage, and then select Users.
  3. Select Actions in the upper-right corner, and choose Run Sync.
  4. Select BambooHR as the source, and then select Start Sync.
