Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Creatomate, BambooHR, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Creatomate and BambooHR integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Creatomate and BambooHR (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Creatomate and BambooHR
BambooHR + Creatomate + Slack: When a new employee is added to BambooHR, Creatomate renders a welcome video using a predefined template. After the video is rendered, a message is sent to a designated Slack channel to notify the team about the new hire and provide a link to the video.
Creatomate + BambooHR + Google Sheets: When a training video is rendered in Creatomate, the employee's training status in BambooHR is updated. A record of the video rendering and status update is then logged in Google Sheets for tracking and reporting purposes.
