How to Add Team Engine to BambooHR for Automated Reports
Team Engine will securely receive automated reports directly from your BambooHR account.
This is a read-only, reporting-only setup and requires no ongoing manual exports once configured.
What You’ll Need
- Admin access in BambooHR
- 5–10 minutes to complete setup
-
The Team Engine reporting email:
hr.reports@teamengine.io
Step 1: Add Team Engine as an Employee (Creates the User Account)
In BambooHR, user access is created by adding an employee record and assigning an access level.
- Log into BambooHR
-
Go to Settings → Employees (or Add Employee)
Add a new employee with the following details:
- Name: Team Engine Reports
- Email: hr.reports@teamengine.io
- Assign a read-only access level with permission to view Reports
- Send the user invitation and complete the account setup
Once the invitation is accepted, the login prompt will be removed and Team Engine will be able to access reports automatically.
✅ Note: The email domain does not need to match your company’s domain.
Step 2: Set Permissions (Important)
Assign limited, read-only access to keep things secure.
Recommended permissions:
- ✅ Access to Reports
- ✅ View-only access to required employee fields
- ❌ No editing, payroll, or admin permissions
This ensures Team Engine can receive data only, not make changes.
Step 3: Create Automated Reports
- Go to Reports in BambooHR
-
Create or select the report(s) you want to automate
(Employee data, status changes, custom fields, etc.)
- Click Automate / Schedule
- Set delivery frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Select Team Engine Reports as the recipient
