You can integrate with Kept from a BambooHR account by following the instructions below.

Part 1: Create a custom access level

All (12)
Select "Custom Access Level"

2. In Basic Info, enter “Kept COBRA”.

New Custom Access Level
Title the new access level "Kept COBRA"

3. On the next page, What this Access Level Can Do, click Settings, and then select the checkbox next to “Benefits.” 

Assign "Benefits" to this access level

In the same step, click Reports and mark the boxes next to "Benefits Administration Reports" and "Create New Reports." Click Next Step to continue. 

4. In What this Access Level Can See, go to the “See About other Employees section”.

On each tab, we need all fields set to “View Only” access to the following sections: 

  • Personal
  • Job
  • Benefits

New Custom Access Level
Be sure to include "All Employees" so that Kept can properly administer for your entire population


Since Kept will be a non-employee user, we don't need an employee profile. You can click No on the "See About Themselves" tab.

The widgets on the “See on Home” tab are optional. Click Save & Finish.
