FAQS_

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to set up Cornerstone OnDemand with Bindbee?

Most customers complete setup in under 10 minutes. A Cornerstone admin registers an API application, enters the client ID, client secret, and portal URL through Magic Link, and the initial sync starts immediately.

What credentials does my customer need to connect Cornerstone?

An OAuth 2.0 client ID and client secret from Cornerstone's Edge API Management, plus their portal URL (for example, company.csod.com). Cornerstone only supports the client credentials grant for its REST APIs, which is what Bindbee uses.

What employee data can I get from Cornerstone OnDemand?

Bindbee syncs Cornerstone user records, including name, employee_number, username, work_email, personal_email, phone numbers, designation, division, manager, start_date, employment_status, and home address.

Does Bindbee sync Cornerstone organizational units?

Yes. Cornerstone organizational units are returned through the Group model with name, type, and parent_group, so you can rebuild the hierarchy. Employees are linked to their groups via the groups field.

Can I get location data from Cornerstone?

Yes. The Location model returns full addresses (name, street_1, street_2, city, state, postal_code, country), and employees are linked through work_locations.

Does Bindbee sync learning or training data from Cornerstone?

Not through this connector. The Cornerstone HRIS connector focuses on the user directory and org structure: employees, employments, groups, and locations.

Can I get organizational hierarchy from Cornerstone?

Yes. The manager field on Employee objects contains the manager's Bindbee ID, and Group objects carry parent_group for the org unit tree.

How do I know when a Cornerstone user was created?

The remote_created_at field on Employee returns when the user record was created in Cornerstone. It's useful for detecting new hires, together with start_date.

How do I handle Cornerstone API rate limits?

You don't. Bindbee manages rate limiting and token refresh with Cornerstone's API internally, and retries failed requests automatically.

Is my data secure with Bindbee?

Yes. Bindbee is SOC 2 Type II certified, ISO 27001 certified, HIPAA compliant, and GDPR ready. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and we never store your customer's credentials on your servers.
