Namely Integration
Integrate your Namely HR platform with Sprinto to automatically sync employee data, streamline onboarding checks, and maintain compliance visibility.
The Namely integration allows Sprinto to automatically import employee data such as names, email addresses, departments, and employment status. This ensures that your compliance scope within Sprinto stays accurate and updated in real time.
How it Works
Sprinto connects to your Namely instance using Merge, a unified HRIS connector. The connection requires your Namely subdomain and a personal access token (API key). Once connected, Sprinto periodically syncs employee data to maintain compliance visibility and automation accuracy.
Dashboard Actions
1. Obtain Your Namely Credentials
Before connecting Namely to Sprinto, gather the following details from your Namely account:
Subdomain
Personal Access Token (API key)
Creating an API Service User
Before configuring a Namely Connector, Namely recommends creating an API Service User. The permissions associated with that user will determine the permissions of the Personal Access Token required for integration.
The API Service User must be an Administrator in Namely.
Step 1: Identify Your Namely Subdomain
Log in to your company’s Namely portal.
In your browser address bar, locate your subdomain, it appears before
namely.com.For example, if your sign-in URL is
https://acme.namely.com, your subdomain isacme.
Enter this subdomain in the linking flow when prompted during setup.
Step 2: Generate a Personal Access Token (API Key)
Ensure you have Administrator access in Namely.
From the Admin dropdown, select API.
On the API page, click the Personal Access Tokens tab (located beside OAuth Applications).
Select Create Token.
Assign a name (for example, Sprinto Integration) and click Submit.
Copy the personal access token and store it securely — it will only be displayed once.
You’ll use this token to authorise the integration in Sprinto.
2. Connect Namely in Sprinto
Log in to your Sprinto account using your credentials.
From the left navigation panel, go to Settings (located at the bottom).
Click Available Integrations under the Settings menu.
In the search bar, type Namely, then click Connect next to the Namely option.
Select the checkbox I have a domain and API key, then click Connect to Namely.
In the pop-up window, enter your Namely subdomain, then click Submit.
On the next screen, you’ll be prompted to enter your Namely API key. To generate it:
Sign in to your Namely account.
Click your profile name in the upper-right corner to open the dropdown menu.
Select API from the list.
Click Personal Access Tokens in the upper-left.
Enter a name for your token and click Create.
Copy the generated token and paste it into the API Key field in Sprinto.
Click Submit to complete the setup.
Once connected, Sprinto will automatically begin syncing employee data from Namely within 24 hours.
If you need assistance during setup, contact Sprinto Support through the in-app chat or email [email protected].

FAQs
1. Who can set up the Namely integration? Only a Namely Administrator can create and manage personal access tokens required for integration.
2. How often does Sprinto sync data from Namely? Sprinto automatically refreshes employee data at regular intervals to ensure compliance accuracy.
3. What happens if my Namely API token expires or is revoked? If revoked, the integration will stop syncing. Generate a new token and reconnect to restore functionality.
