How to connect Knack and BambooHR
Create a New Scenario to Connect Knack and BambooHR
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Knack, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Knack or BambooHR will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Knack or BambooHR, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Knack, 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 Knack and BambooHR integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Knack 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 Knack and BambooHR
BambooHR + Knack + Slack: When a new employee is added to BambooHR, a corresponding user profile is created in Knack, and a welcome message is sent to the new employee via Slack.
BambooHR + Knack + Google Sheets: When employee data is updated in BambooHR, the changes are logged in a Google Sheet for auditing. Similarly, when employee data is updated in Knack, those changes are also logged in the same Google Sheet.
