Automated Onboarding Using Paylocity

Personalize every new hire experience and save HR admin time (a lot!)

Top brands trust Pyn

Pyn gives people teams back the hours lost to manual onboarding: the repetitive emails, scheduling, and nudging managers, freeing them for higher-value strategic work. It also de-risks the process. Nothing slips through the cracks, every hire gets a consistent experience, and completion tracking proves it's working.

Because Pyn connects to Paylocity, it already knows the moment someone starts, gets promoted, changes team, or moves on — there's no list to upload and no one to remind. From there every message is personalized by role, team, and location, delivered where people already work — and nothing slips.

At the same time, it scales a personal, human touch across the whole company. Every new hire feels individually looked after, strengthening engagement without adding headcount.

How to get started

How to get started

  • Move from manual to a highly personalized and automated process quickly

Your people data is in Paylocity. Pyn puts it to work.

Paylocity knows when someone starts, gets promoted, changes teams, or hits their anniversary. Pyn uses that data to:

  • Send timely messages to the right person - through Slack, email, or Teams.
  • Send polls and forms - like probation checks or onboarding buddy selection.
  • Automate integrations - like adding people to a Calendar invite or Slack group.
  • Set your HR Calendar - to manage salary reviews, holidays or company events.

No manual emails. No spreadsheets. No one has to remember.

Why connect Pyn and Paylocity?

Automate the repetitive stuff. New hire starting Monday? Pyn sends the welcome sequence, nudges the manager, loops in IT, and assigns a buddy. You choose which Paylocity fields to import, and Pyn can trigger off any of them.

Make messages feel personal. Pyn tailors content by department, location, and role — so a new sales hire in Chicago and an engineer in London get different experiences. Messages come from their actual manager, not a generic HR address.

Cover the whole lifecycle. Onboarding is just the start. Pyn also handles things like promotions, anniversaries, parental leave returns, and offboarding — or any other moment driven by a change in Paylocity.

Keep managers in the loop. When someone joins their team, Pyn sends prep reminders, check-in prompts, and conversation starters: through Slack, Teams, or email, wherever they actually work.

How to connect

Does Pyn integrate with Paylocity?

Yes. Pyn connects to Paylocity via a service account. Your Paylocity admin handles a short setup, and Pyn guides you through every step.

What data syncs from Paylocity?

Employee directory details (email, division, location, department), start and termination dates, job information, etc. You control which fields are active in Pyn.

Does setup require IT involvement?

Your Paylocity admin will need to request API credentials with the right permissions — about 10 minutes of work. After that, Pyn handles everything on its end automatically.

How often does data sync?

Hourly. Pyn checks for changes every hour so your automations always reflect current data.

FAQs

Can I personalize messages by department or location?

Does Pyn only work for onboarding?

Where do messages get delivered?

Slack, Microsoft Teams, or email — wherever your people actually work.

Is my data secure?

Pyn is SOC 2 compliant. We only pull the data needed to trigger automations.
