Frequently Asked Questions about BambooHR + SurveyMonkey integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with BambooHR and SurveyMonkey
How can I connect BambooHR with SurveyMonkey for seamless data integration?
To connect BambooHR with SurveyMonkey, you can use our platform to create a Zap. A Zap consists of a trigger and an action. For example, you might set up a Zap where the trigger is 'New Employee in BambooHR' and the action is 'Create Contact in SurveyMonkey', seamlessly transferring new employee details into your survey distribution list.
Can I automate survey sending to new employees added in BambooHR?
Yes, you can automate survey sending by setting up a Zap with the trigger 'New Employee Added in BambooHR' and the action 'Send Survey via SurveyMonkey'. This ensures that every time a new employee's information is added to BambooHR, they automatically receive a survey without any manual intervention.
What happens if there’s an error during the data transfer between BambooHR and SurveyMonkey?
If there’s an error during data transfer between BambooHR and SurveyMonkey, we log the error and alert you via email. You can also view error logs on your dashboard, which detail what went wrong and how it can be fixed to resume seamless integration.
Is it possible to update existing contacts in SurveyMonkey when employee details change in BambooHR?
Absolutely! By setting up a Zap with 'Employee Updated in BambooHR' as the trigger and 'Update Contact in SurveyMonkey' as an action, changes such as role updates or contact information modifications made in BambooHR will be reflected automatically in your SurveyMonkey contacts.
Can I target specific employees for surveys based on their role or department from BambooHR?
Yes, when creating a Zap, you can customize filters so only employees that meet specific criteria—like role or department—trigger surveys sent through SurveyMonkey. This way, you ensure surveys are targeted appropriately without needing separate lists or manual sorting.
How do I track responses from surveys sent through this integration?
Once a survey is sent using our setup between BambooHR and SurveyMonkey, responses are collated directly into your SurveyMonkey dashboard. You can also create further Zaps to notify teams about response rates or non-completion alerts if necessary.
Does integrating these platforms affect our existing data on either platform?
Integrating these platforms through our system does not alter or delete any of your existing data. The setup simply automates tasks like creating or updating contacts based on triggers from one platform onto another without affecting pre-existing records.
