How to Send Ultimate Member Data to Employment Hero
Employment Hero is a HR platform. Ultimate Member manages a user registers or updates their profile, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to Employment Hero.
Why connect directly?
Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-registration fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Ultimate Member installed and configured.
- A Employment Hero account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Employment Hero to AFI
Employment Hero uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Employment Hero, click Authorize and grant access. This is a one-time step.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Ultimate Member to Employment Hero.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Ultimate Member as the form provider. AFI fires when a user registers or updates their profile, giving you access to user name, email, username, account type, and custom profile fields.
3. Select Employment Hero as the destination
Choose Employment Hero from the platform dropdown and pick Add Employee. This creates an employee in Employment Hero.
4. Map fields
Match each Employment Hero field on the left to the corresponding Ultimate Member field on the right. Common mappings include user name, email, username, account type, and custom profile fields. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Ultimate Member. Check Employment Hero to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps name, email, and phone to Employment Hero with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
