HR Cloud

Connect HR Cloud employee updates with IT accounts to reduce delays.

AD & HR syncHCM

Overview

HR Cloud is an employee management platform that offers tools for onboarding, engagement, and HR process automation. Integrating HR Cloud with Active Directory using ADManager Plus helps ensure that employee lifecycle changes in HR Cloud—like hiring, role updates, or terminations—are automatically reflected in Active Directory. This eliminates the need for manual updates, reduces onboarding delays, and ensures access is properly managed throughout an employee’s journey.

 

Automated onboarding

Provision AD accounts as soon as new hires are added in HR Cloud, ensuring immediate access to required systems.

 

Access updates

Sync updates to employee roles, departments, or managers from HR Cloud to AD to keep permissions accurate.

 

Secure offboarding

Disable or remove AD accounts when users are offboarded in HR Cloud, helping prevent unauthorized access.

 

How to configure HR Cloud integration in ADManager Plus

Prerequisites:

  • HR Cloud uses basic authentication credentials to authorize API request
  • Authentication credentials required: Username and password.

Privileges:

  • To import users (Inbound action): Ensure the account used for authorization has permission to read all user accounts.
  • To perform any action or query in HR Cloud (Outbound Action): Ensure the account used for authorization has permission to perform the desired action.
Note: ADManager Plus comes with a pre-configured set of APIs that helps perform basic actions with the integration. If the action you require is not available, please gather the necessary API details from HR Cloud's API documentation to configure under inbound or outbound webhooks to perform the required actions.

Authorization configuration

  • Log in to ADManager Plus and navigate to Directory/Application Settings.
  • Go to Application Integrations, then search and select HR Cloud.
  • Toggle the Enable HR Cloud Integration button on.
  • In the HR Cloud Configuration page, click Authorization.
  • Enter the authentication credentials.
  • Click Configure.

Inbound webhook configuration

Inbound webhook enables you to fetch user data from HR Cloud to ADManager Plus. The attribute mapping configured in this section can be selected as the data source during automation configuration to perform the desired action on the list of users received from the API response. To configure an inbound webhook for HR Cloud:

  • Under Inbound Webhook, click HR Cloud Endpoint Configuration.
  • In the Endpoint Configuration tab, an endpoint, HR Cloud- List All Employees ENDPOINT, comes pre-configured with an Endpoint URL, API Method, Headers, and Parameters fields to fetch user accounts from HR Cloud. If you would like to use a new endpoint to import users, you can configure one using the + Add API endpoint button and filling in the required fields as per HR Cloud's API references. Click here to learn how. Note:
    • Authorization Header is preconfigured as a header for authenticating API requests as configured during Authorization Configuration.
    • Macros: You can add macros to your endpoint configuration to dynamically change it as per your requirement using the macro chooser component.
    • Refer to HR Cloud's API references and configure additional headers and parameters, if required.
  • Once done, click Test & Save. A response window will display all the requested parameters that can be fetched using the API call. Click Proceed. Note:
    • Refer to HR Cloud's API references to know the Parameters that must be configured to fetch only specific parameters.
    • You can configure multiple endpoints for HR Cloud using the + Add API endpoint button. Click here to learn how.
  • Click Data Source - LDAP Attribute Mapping to match endpoints and to map AD LDAP attributes with the respective attributes in HR Cloud. [ADManager Plus also lets you customize attribute format from HR Cloud]
  • Click + Add New Configuration and perform the following:
    • Enter the Configuration Name and Description and select the Automation Category from the drop-down menu.
    • In the Select Endpoint field, select the desired endpoint and a Primary Key that is unique to a user (e.g. employeeIdentifier). Note: When multiple endpoints are configured, this attribute must hold the same value in all the endpoints.
    • In the Attribute Mapping field, select the attribute from the LDAP Attribute Name drop-down menu and map it with the respective column in HR Cloud.
    • If you would like to create a new custom format for this, click Mapping Attribute.
    • Click Save.
Note: The attribute mapping configured in this section can be selected as the data source during automation configuration to perform the desired action on the list of users received from the API response.

Outbound webhook configuration

Outbound webhook enables you to update the changes made in AD using ADManager Plus to HR Cloud or fetch or forward required details from HR Cloud and synchronize them with AD. To configure an outbound webhook for HR Cloud:

  • Under Outbound Webhook, click HR Cloud Webhook Configuration.
  • Click + Add Webhook.
  • Enter a name and description for this webhook.
  • Decide on the action that has to be performed and refer to HR Cloud's API references for the API details such as the URL, headers, parameters, and other requirements that will be needed.
  • Select the HTTP method that will enable you to perform the desired action on the endpoint from the drop-down menu.
  • Enter the endpoint URL.
  • Configure the Headers, Parameters, and Message Type in the appropriate format based on the API call that you would like to perform.
  • Click Test and Save.
  • A pop up window will then display a list of AD users and groups to test the configured API call. Select the desired user or group over which this API request has to be tested and click OK. This will make a real-time call to the endpoint URL, and the selected objects will be modified as per the configuration.
  • The webhook response and request details will then be displayed. Verify them for the expected API behavior and click Save.
Note: The webhooks configured in this section can be included in Orchestration Templates, which can be used in event-driven and scheduled automations. They can also be applied directly to desired users to perform a sequence of actions on them (under Management > Advanced Management > Orchestration).
