Overview
OrgChart pulls BambooHR data from an API Service User. The permissions of this query correspond to the Access Level assigned to that user in BambooHR.
OrgChart can pull any BambooHR Field that the API Service User allows. Click the following link for a complete list of BambooHR fields.
Pulling Additional BambooHR Fields
Optionally, admin can pull more sensitive data from BambooHR from the Additional Fields dropdown menu. There are two types of Additional Fields: Default Additional Fields and Custom Additional Fields.
Note
Note: Administrators must grant the API Service User access to view Additional and Custom Additional Fields before selecting to pull that field in OrgChart. Reference the BambooHR Permissions article for more information.
