Turn training completion rows into BambooHR records

When a training completion is logged in your sheet, have Notis add a record to the employee's BambooHR profile.

Trigger

New Rows in Google Sheet

Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.

Action

Post employee training record

This endpoint allows you to create a new training record for a specific employee in the bamboohr system. it's used to document completed training sessions, including details such as the completion date, cost, instructor, duration, credits earned, and any additional notes. this tool is essential for maintaining accurate employee development records, tracking professional growth, and ensuring compliance with training requirements. it should be used whenever an employee completes a training session, workshop, or course that needs to be officially recorded in their hr file. the endpoint requires the company domain and employee id as part of the url, ensuring that the training record is associated with the correct employee in the appropriate company account.

Why this helps

Completed training tracked in a spreadsheet can be forgotten when it is time to update employee records.

  • Keep completion records moving into employee profiles
  • Reduce manual updates after training
  • Flag entries that lack required record details

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and BambooHR once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and tell Notis to add a BambooHR training record for each new completion row.
  • 3Pick the Google Sheets New Rows trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 4Test with one real completion row and check the employee record.

Questions about this workflow

Does this enroll employees in training?

No. It records a training completion that is already represented in the sheet.

What if a completion row is incomplete?

Notis can only use details available in the row. Check the run report if BambooHR requires information that is missing.
