[Automatisations](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#automatisations) # How to connect reteach and Personio ## How to synchronise employees from Personio with reteach and add certificates issued by reteach into Personio You can find out how to connect Personio with reteach in this [help article](https://support.reteach.com/en/hrworks-reteach-das-wird-synchronisiert?hsLang=en). We support the following automatisations with Personio: ### Synchronisation of employees from Personio to reteach The synchronisation happens unidirectionally every 5 minutes from Personio to reteach. The following fields are copied: - First name - Surname - Email - Position - Company - Department (upon request—please contact our support team) - Location - Gender - Type of employment - End of employment contract   Caution: The automatisation also adds employees who are no longer active. However, they are blocked if the end date of the employment contract has been reached or the start of the contract is still pending.   ### Synchronisation of certificates to Personio The synchronisation of certificates happens unidirectionally every 30 minutes from reteach to Personio. During this, the certificates are added to a previously selected category to the employee in Personio. The following data is added additionally to the PDF document: - Course name - Completion date Caution: In order for the certificates to be synchronized, employee synchronization must be activated and at least one complete data synchronization must have already taken place. After the automation has been started, certificates issued earlier will also be transferred to Personio. Note: Certificates are synchronized to the “Other Documents” folder unless a “Learning Certificates” folder is created.     ### 1) How to activate automations and connect Personio with reteach - step by step **Generate API access credentials in Personio** Open the settings in Personio, select the “Integrations” section, and then select “API access credentials.” Generate new credentials with the following values: - Name: "reteach" - Integration: "Anderes" ("Other") - Personal data: - Employees: Lesen (read) - Documents: Lesen & Schreiben (read and write) (only if certificates are added from reteach to Personio) - Readable employee attributes (please select the following fields): - Vorname (First Name) - Nachname (Surname) - E-Mail (Email) - Position - Gesellschaft (Company) - Abteilung (Department) - Standort (Location) - Geschlecht (Gender) - Anstellungsart (Type of employment) - Anstelldatum (Date of employment) - Ende des Arbeitsverhältnisses (End of contract) - Zuletzt geändert (Last changed) ![Settings Personio](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-20-20-1458-AM.png?width=670&height=542&name=undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-20-20-1458-AM.png) ![API-Credentials Personio](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-20-29-8501-AM.png?width=670&height=427&name=undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-20-29-8501-AM.png) ![Create Custom Integration in Personio](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-17-4302-AM.png?width=670&height=391&name=undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-17-4302-AM.png) ![Create Custom Integration in Personio enter](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-37-3831-AM.png?width=670&height=506&name=undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-37-3831-AM.png) ![Create Custom Integration in Personio fields](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-46-1681-AM.png?width=670&height=603&name=undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-46-1681-AM.png) ![Create Custom Integration in Personio ID](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-54-9675-AM.png?width=670&height=610&name=undefined-Jul-31-2025-09-21-54-9675-AM.png)   ### 2) Activate synchronisation from employees to reteach Under Settings/Integrations, you can start the Personio integration via Kombo.

Ideally, check whether the master data in Personio and reteach match. Before setting up, also consider which document category the certificates should be stored in within Personio.   The certificates are transferred automatically. A folder named “Bildungszertifikate” or “Learning certificates” must be created in Personio (please use this exact name). Once this has been created, we can synchronize all existing certificates – just let us know when you're ready.   ---   **Congratulations, you have now successfully connected Personio with reteach!** **Tip:** Enter the academy's URL (xyz.reteach.io) as [shortcut for the Personio dashboard](https://support.personio.de/hc/en-us/articles/360001268369-The-homepage) in order for participants to always have access to your academy.   - [Courses](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Categories](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#categories) - [Create and manage courses](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#create-and-manage-courses) - [Lessons](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#lessons) - [Course Catalog](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#course-catalog) - [Certificates](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#certificates) - [Live trainings and sessions](https://support.reteach.com/en/courses?hsLang=en#live-trainings-and-sessions) - [Participants](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Filters and Tags](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#filters-and-tags) - [Mailings](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#mailings) - [Help for your participants](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#help-for-your-participants) - [Export participant data](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#export-participant-data) - [Managing participants](https://support.reteach.com/en/participants?hsLang=en#managing-participants) - [Learning Progress & Analytics](https://support.reteach.com/en/learning-progress-analytics?hsLang=en) - [E-Commerce](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Sell courses](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#sell-courses) - [Stripe](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#stripe) - [Orders](https://support.reteach.com/en/e-commerce?hsLang=en#orders) - [Account & Admin](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Tariff](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#tariff) - [Administrators](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#administrators) - [Legal & Data Protection](https://support.reteach.com/en/account-admin?hsLang=en#legal-data-protection) - [Settings](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Personalisation of your academy](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#personalisation-of-your-academy) - [Zoom & MS Teams Integrations](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#zoom-ms-teams-integrations) - [Useful information](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#useful-information) - [Automatisations](https://support.reteach.com/en/settings?hsLang=en#automatisations) - [Translation Tips](https://support.reteach.com/en/translation-tips?hsLang=en) [![reteach Die Lernplattform für den Mittelstand](https://support.reteach.com/hubfs/logo.svg "reteach Die Lernplattform für den Mittelstand")](https://www.reteach.com/) Haben Sie noch Fragen?
