Is anyone using Gusto as their HRIS with BetterCloud?

By their own admission, Gusto doesn’t offer a lot in terms of integration capabilities, but there may be some options available via webhook. I’m curious if anyone has ever managed to configure a connector for Gusto?

Writing BetterCloud Audit Logs to a Google Sheet

This guide will walk you through how you can use BetterCloud’s API offering to push your BetterCloud Audit Logs to an external service. In this case, we are using Google Sheets, but this is applicable to any other system you’d like to push your Audit Logs (or other information) out to. We put this guide together based on the following conversation: If you have any questions, suggestions, or issues leave a comment below. Google Sheet / Apps ScriptMake a copy of this Sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1L1cst1jwEmrQms0JvOOrMzFQDJ3yZ_3rhtY_7IfJXrQ/edit#gid=0 Navigate to Tools > Script Editor Replace the sheetId variable in Line 1 with your Sheet IDThis will look something like: 1J8w43QDlUj6Lu3sRkFZEdswZYgTfSdsQIwU1xTxCM28 Save the script by clicking the ‘Save project’ floppy disk icon On the top right of the script, click ‘Deploy’ > New Deployment Set a Description (ie ..

Please add alert for Gmail Delegation

The ability to Delegate a Google mailbox in Bettercloud without notifications is a big red flag to me. I could Delegate an execs mailbox without them knowing and view sensitive information, and this should not be taken lightly.There currently does not exist an Alert for this category, just a canned report on current Delegations.Can an Alert be made for this?

Issues with Atlassian Groups Adding/Removing Users

Precursor: First off I want to say I’ve been working with BetterCloud support who have been awesome as always but we’re unable to find a resolution to this issue. I have successfully integrated Atlassian using a service account with the correct Admin rights.Issue: I have been able to Create users, but not add some users to Atlassian groups. My goal is to create a workflow where if they get added to a specific Okta group, they’re put into the correct Atlassian group. When I try to add a user to an Atlassian group, it responds back with:More than one user found for email 'user@mycompany.com' or email was not recognized. Please verify that email is correct I did some digging and confirmed via Postman that hitting the https://{base_domain_URL}.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/user/search?query={email}​ API with my service account I was able to get a response.The problem is, I get 2 responses back:accountType: customer email: user@mycompanny.com accountType: atlassian email: user@mycompany.comWe us

Hi All,Quick question, what's the best way to do monitoring via API or constant check via until expected results.Specifically, I am trying to check if a ticket is on a particular status and if so, then continue with the workflow. But it feels that try the call until success is the wrong approach as it may takes days for someone to action the ticket.🗨 Link to Slack thread

Yes, @gillenb. If you have this email parameter in your action, you can route this parameter to the url by using {{payload.user_email}} you are sending in the webhook like this: https://screenshots.bettercloud.com/o0uvXmZl. So when you save this action and use it in workflows, the user_email value you pass in that field should be appended to the when the action is executed.🗨 Link to Slack thread

Hey team, apologies for the very specific question. What values does userId accept in the Gsuite Move User to Org Unit action? I’ve been using an email address there, but that seems to be causing some issues where deactivated Gsuite users have the same email address as active users (or aliases). Is there some more unique value I could use on this call?🗨 Link to Slack thread
