Integration with Leapsome
Automate employee onboarding, progression, and offboarding to your IT landscape
Let IT automatically adapt to HR processes. New employees receive immediate access to the right systems, job changes are processed automatically, and upon termination, access is immediately revoked. This facilitates faster, more consistent onboarding and offboarding without manual steps.
- Leapsome as your central place for HR data
- ISO27001 certified

Why would you integrate your IT environment with Leapsome?
In many organisations, errors, delays, and security risks occur because HR systems and IT environments operate independently. With Joinly's HR ↔ integration, you use your HR system as the central source for identity management. This ensures accounts, roles, and access are automatically synchronised based on HR data. Without manual actions.
Automatic onboarding, offboarding and changes
New employees are automatically created in your IT environment (Microsoft, ERP, CRM, Financial system) as soon as they appear in your HR system. No tickets, no waiting times and instantly productive from day one.
Better security & compliance
Access is automatically adjusted with role changes and immediately revoked upon termination of employment. This helps prevent zombie accounts and makes it easier to comply with security and audit requirements.
Less management, more control
IT no longer needs to manage manual accounts. Everything is handled centrally, predictably, and transparently via Joinly with logging, monitoring, and error handling.
Save on software costs
Nothing is more annoying than paying for something you do not use; Joinly automatically deactivates accounts that are not being used in your Microsoft environment, CRM, ERP, or other software package.
"We were able to move extremely quickly, and the flexibility of setting up the integration is a huge plus for us"
What happens the moment HR changes something
Four moments in an employment, the same pattern every time: Leapsome leads and Joinly carries out the consequences.
Your business software - Target systems
Employee is created
As soon as a new employee is created in Leapsome, Joinly automatically creates it in all your business applications. This ensures the account is automatically provisioned and created for the new employee.
Employee data is being modified
Joinly retrieves the updated data from your HR system and synchronises all changes to your integrated business software.
Employee changes role and/or department
A position change in Leapsome can affect the applications and/or permissions the employee has access to. The job change is automatically retrieved by Joinly and synchronised to your business software.
Employee exits service
When an employee leaves the company, they are automatically deactivated by Joinly so that rights from applications are revoked and accounts are deactivated.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about this integration
The questions IT managers considering this integration ask us most. If yours is not here, put it to us during the demo.
What exactly does the integration between Leapsome and Joinly do?
Joinly reads your employees from Leapsome and uses that as the source of truth for access management. A new hire, a role change or a departure in Leapsome is translated automatically into accounts and permissions in Microsoft Entra ID, your on-premises Active Directory and your connected applications. You maintain the data once, where it belongs.
How does Joinly retrieve data from Leapsome, and how often?
Over an API, not by exchanging files: Joinly collects the employees from an endpoint on your Leapsome environment, using its own authentication key. No CSV involved. How often that happens is up to you — hourly, daily or weekly, at a time you set. Most organisations run the import overnight, so a new joiner has an account waiting the next morning.
Which data does Joinly take from Leapsome?
Only what is needed to decide on an account and the right permissions: employee number, name (including preferred and partner name), date of birth, start and end date, business and private contact details, department, manager and job title. Salary, absence and appraisal data stay in Leapsome. Which field ends up where is yours to set in the field mapping.
Does Joinly write anything back to Leapsome?
Optionally. Joinly can write the username (UPN), the email address and the phone number back into Leapsome, so HR can see which account belongs to which employee. You switch that write-back on or off yourself; by default the integration runs one way, out of Leapsome.
Will Joinly overwrite our existing accounts?
No. Joinly first imports your existing environment and matches the accounts it finds there to the employees from Leapsome. Existing accounts are recognised and adopted rather than created twice. Which matching strategy applies — person identifier, employee number or UPN — is yours to choose.
Can we try this without risk first?
Yes. You run the import as a dry run first: Joinly calculates everything, writes nothing, and hands you an Excel export of exactly what would happen. After that a threshold keeps watching. If Leapsome delivers more new, activated or deactivated employees in one run than you allowed, Joinly blocks the import instead of executing it.
What about people who are not in Leapsome?
Contractors, hired staff and interns are registered directly in Joinly or through a second source. From then on they follow the same lifecycle as the employees from Leapsome, end date included — so temporary access expires by itself instead of lingering.
Can we connect Leapsome to several systems at once?
Yes. A single HR source can feed both Microsoft Entra ID and an on-premises Active Directory, plus your business applications and your ITSM system. Hybrid organisations use that to keep cloud and on-premise following the same truth. Several HR sources side by side is possible too.
How long does it take to set up the Leapsome integration?
The integration is a matter of configuration, not development: Joinly collects employees from one normalised endpoint, so nothing has to be built into the platform to support Leapsome. The work is in the agreements — which fields lead, which naming convention you use and which permissions belong to which job. Most organisations start with onboarding and expand into role changes and offboarding afterwards.
Is the integration secure, and does it cover our audit obligations?
Joinly is ISO27001-certified. Traffic with Leapsome runs over a secured connection with its own authentication key, and every change Joinly makes is recorded. At audit time you can show who was given which access when, why it was granted and when it was revoked again.
What does the integration cost?
The integration is part of the subscription — you pay per account per month, not per connector. The pricing page shows what the plans cost and what each one includes.
More about Leapsome
Leapsome-integratie met Joinly: automatiseer gebruikersbeheer
Leapsome vormt voor veel organisaties de centrale bron voor medewerkersgegevens en HR-processen. Zonder koppeling met het IT-landschap moeten wijzigingen echter handmatig worden doorgegeven en verwerkt. Dat kost tijd en vergroot de kans op fouten en beveiligingsrisico’s.
De uitdagingen zonder integratie
Wanneer Leapsome niet is gekoppeld aan je applicaties, ontstaan vaak de volgende problemen:
Nieuwe medewerkers hebben op hun eerste werkdag nog niet de juiste toegang.
Accounts worden handmatig aangemaakt via tickets, e-mails of Excel-bestanden.
Functiewijzigingen worden niet tijdig verwerkt in rollen en autorisaties.
Accounts van uitdienstgetreden medewerkers blijven soms onnodig actief.
Medewerkersgegevens in Leapsome en het IT-landschap zijn niet consistent.
Dit zorgt voor extra werk bij HR en IT, vertraagt de onboarding en vergroot het risico op ongeautoriseerde toegang.
Hoe Joinly dit oplost
Met de integratie tussen Leapsome en Joinly worden de instroom, doorstroom en uitstroom van medewerkers automatisch verwerkt. Zodra HR een medewerker aanmaakt of een wijziging doorvoert in Leapsome, vertaalt Joinly deze gegevens naar de juiste acties binnen alle gekoppelde systemen.
Voordelen van de Leapsome-integratie
Nieuwe medewerkers ontvangen tijdig de juiste accounts en toegang.
Wijzigingen in functies, afdelingen en andere HR-gegevens worden automatisch verwerkt.
Accounts en toegangsrechten van oud-medewerkers worden veilig ingetrokken.

HR en IT besparen tijd en zijn minder afhankelijk van handmatige verzoeken.
Zo ontstaat één gestroomlijnd proces waarin medewerkers vanaf hun eerste werkdag productief kunnen zijn, wijzigingen correct worden verwerkt en toegang bij uitdiensttreding tijdig wordt beëindigd.
Benieuwd hoe de integratie tussen Leapsome en Joinly jouw gebruikersbeheer veiliger en efficiënter maakt? Met Joinly automatiseer je de volledige identity lifecycle en leg je een toekomstbestendige basis voor Identity & Access Management.
