Overview

  • You can constantly stay updated with application information from our Integrations Page >> Integration Capabilities button >> Integration Capabilities table.
  • This integration is available behind a feature flag. To enable it for your organization, contact Torii Support.

Requirements

To connect this integration, we require the following:

Accounts & Permissions

  • A Remote company account.
  • A Remote company admin or company owner. Only they can create and revoke API tokens.

Required keys

  • API Token - a Remote customer API token. To sync users, the token needs only the employment:read permission.
  • (Optional) To use the Torii action that updates work emails, the token also needs employment:write.

How to Generate the Required Values

Follow these steps to generate the required values:

Step 1: Generate an API token

  1. Sign in to Remote as a company admin or company owner. A new Remote company must first finish Remote's company setup (legal company name, filing address, phone and tax details); until then the Remote API card asks you to add the missing details.
  2. Go to Company settings >> Integrations & APIs.
  3. On the Remote API card, click Access API, then Generate API token.
  4. Enter a name for the token (for example, Torii).
  5. Under the endpoint collections, select Custom endpoints and select View employments (employment:read). If you plan to use the Torii action, also select Manage employments (employment:write).
  6. Select the checkbox to agree to the Remote API Terms of Use and click Generate API Token.
  7. Click Copy token. Remote shows the token only once. Production tokens start with ra_live_.

Important
Use a production token (starting with ra_live_). Tokens starting with ra_test_ only work in the Remote sandbox and will not connect to your live data.

How to Connect the Integration

  1. Go to the Integrations page in Torii.
  2. Search for Remote and click Connect.
  3. Paste the API token into the API Token field.
  4. Click Connect.

Update the User Lifecycle settings

To make sure you get user lifecycle information in Torii, define Remote as your HR management system.

  1. Go to Settings >> Users & Employees and, under User lifecycle, click Manage sources.
  2. Under Human Resource Management Systems, select Remote. If Remote is your only source for user management, make sure the other sources are unselected.
  3. Click Preview changes, then Apply changes.

Actions

  • Update Remote work email - updates the work email of an existing employment. Requires the employment:write permission.
  • Deleting a user is not supported. Offboarding must be done in Remote.
