What you can do
Four things you can do once Namely is connected
Namely handles HR data. Empuls adds recognition and rewards using the employee data already in Namely.
One employee list, kept in sync
- Two-way sync every 24 hours
- Employee data syncs between Namely and Empuls once every 24 hours. Changes made in Namely update the matching records in Empuls automatically.
- Namely stays the source of truth
- HR keeps working in Namely. Empuls profiles follow, so there is no second employee list to maintain by hand.
Field mapping you control
- Three required fields
- First name, email ID, and employment status always sync. They cannot be unchecked, so every profile in Empuls is complete enough to reach.
- 14+ optional fields
- Add last name, employee code, grade, department, designation, date of birth, joining date, mobile number, business unit, cost center, location, and more.
Lifecycle events, handled for you
- New hires get accounts automatically
- When a new employee is added in Namely, an Empuls account is created on the next sync.
- Profile updates and exits follow
- Profile changes in Namely update Empuls. Employees are removed from Empuls based on their exit date or status in Namely.
Start the sync on your terms
- Run the first sync now
- Launch the first data sync immediately once field mapping is validated.
- Or schedule it for later
- Pick a specific date and time for the first sync if you want to line it up with a program launch or an HR cutover.
Use cases
Who runs it, and what for
Three ways teams use the Namely integration.
Keep profiles and teams current
Department, designation, location, and other mapped fields update from Namely, so recognition and reporting reflect the org as it is today.
Offboard exited employees automatically
Employees are removed from Empuls based on their exit date or status in Namely, so leavers do not linger as active users.
How it works
From Namely record to Empuls profile
Step 1
Connect with your API key
An admin enters the Namely account URL and API key in Empuls, then tests the connection.
Step 2
Map your fields
First name, email ID, and employment status are required. Choose which optional fields to bring across.
Step 3
Validate with a CSV preview
Review the data that will sync before anything goes live.
Step 4
Run the sync now or schedule it
Launch the first data sync immediately, or set a date and time. After that, it runs every 24 hours.
