Overview

To authenticate with BambooHR (Basic Auth), you will need:
  1. Subdomain - The subdomain used to access your BambooHR account.
  2. API Key - A key that grants Nango permission to interact with BambooHR APIs resources and services.
This guide will walk you through generating or finding both the API Key and subdomain within BambooHR.

  • Sufficient permission to view the API Keys.

Instructions:

Step 1: Finding Your subdomain

  1. Log in to your BambooHR account.
  2. Check the URL in your browser’s address bar. Your Subdomain is the text that appears after https:// and before .bamboohr.com.
  • For example, if the URL is https://nango.bamboohr.com/home, your Subdomain is nango.

Step 2: Finding Your API Key

  1. Log in to your BambooHR account and click on My Account in the bottom-left corner.
  2. From the menu that appears, select API Keys to view existing keys or add new ones.

Step 3: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have the Subdomain and API Key:
  1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with BambooHR (Basic Auth).
  2. Enter your Subdomain and API Key in their respective fields.
  3. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.
