Raw data only. Rippling lands as warehouse tables. People analytics are not modeled in dashboards or Uni yet.
You connect data sources yourself in SourceMedium. Sign in to your SourceMedium account, open your store, then in the Data sources section click Connect data source and choose the platform. You need an Editor or Admin role on the store. If you have view-only access, ask an admin or editor on your team to connect it.Once it is connected, what happens next covers first-sync timing and what each connection status means.
How to connect
SourceMedium connects to Rippling with an API token that you create in Rippling and paste into SourceMedium. Do not email the token.1
Create an API token in Rippling
In Rippling, go to Tools → Developer, open the API Tokens tab, and click Create API token. Name it SourceMedium. Select the
workers.read and employment-types.read scopes; SourceMedium needs both. You can only view the token once. Rippling’s own guide: Quickstart: Your first API call.2

Confirm it is connected
SourceMedium checks the token before saving it. The connection reads Awaiting first data until the first sync lands, then Connected.
SourceMedium only ever reads from your connected platforms. It does not create, change, or delete anything, so create the key with read-only access wherever the platform offers it. Treat it like a password: keep it confidential and avoid sharing it over email or in spreadsheets. If the credential is rotated or revoked, follow this guide’s connection method to update SourceMedium.
