TriNet

Overview: Access to your company’s TriNet information via APIs must be authorized by a contract addendum outlining the approved access. This process is started by the submission of a TriNet Solution Engineering Intake Form. An addendum will typically be created by TriNet within three business days of submittal of the intake form and must be signed by an officer, director level or above. The necessary access will be delivered within three business days of receipt of the signed addendum.

  • Select I am a: TriNet Customer then Next

2. Create a TriNet Developer account and Team – This step can be skipped if a developer account and team has already been created for your company within the TriNet Developer site.

  • Create Developer Account – An account must be requested for each individual who will need access to the API credentials

    • Complete email verification
    • Wait for email confirmation of account activation before attempting to sign in (each developer account must be approved by TriNet Solution Engineering before you can sign in. Accounts are typically approved within one to two business days.)
  • Create Developer Team – Team allows you to directly manage which internal colleagues have access to the API credentials. Members can be added or deleted by the team owner, but each developer must have a developer account with TriNet to access the team.
