Setting up Zero Touch Onboarding

Setting up Zero Touch Onboarding will require you to work with your designated Customer Success Manager (CSM) or Customer Success Engineer (CSE).

Prerequisites

  • Administrator access to your HR application (For example, BambooHR)
  • IMPORTANT: Set up the workflow before configuring the HRMS tool as the trigger
  • Set up the hire date in the HR system at least two days in advance to ensure accurate onboarding.

Other things to note

  • Zluri retrieves hire dates daily at 00:00 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).
  • The process will execute only for the HRMS instance shared with Zluri — if multiple HRMS instances are connected, you'll need to configure each instance separately.

Configuration steps

Locate employee hire dates in HRMS

  1. Log in to your HR platform as an administrator and navigate to employee settings.
  2. Identify the field that stores employee hire dates. You'll need to share this information with your designated Customer Success Manager (CSM) or Customer Success Engineer (CSE).

Set up automation rules in Zluri

Here is a simple use case for onboarding an employee on a given date that you can adapt to your requirements:

  1. Log in to Zluri.

  2. Navigate to Workflows → Onboarding → Automation Rules. Select ➕ New Rule.

    If you wish to set up an offboarding rule instead, navigate to Workflows → Offboarding → Automation Rules.

  3. In the WHEN section, select User is Marked for Onboarding.

  4. Under CONDITIONS, select User Account Type → Equals → Employee.

  5. In the THEN section, choose the playbook you want to run during the onboarding steps, and select one of the following triggers.

    ❗️

    Important: The workflow triggers run only for profiles you mark for onboarding after you activate the workflow. They do not run for profiles marked before activation, even if their onboarding date is in the future.

    1. Immediate: Runs the workflow as soon as the employee is marked for onboarding, but only for profiles marked after activation.
    2. On onboarding date and time: Runs the workflow on the date specified in the HR system — again, only for profiles marked after the workflow has been activated.

  6. Select Save Rule in the top-right corner.

  7. Activate the automation rule. Zluri will now use the hire date from the HR application to trigger onboarding actions.
