Set it up
Connect Bonusly to Tray.ai
Each step uses Bonusly's own API details, from its documentation.
Step 1
Save Bonusly's API token
Save the token Bonusly issues as a Tray.ai authentication. The HTTP Client sends it as a bearer token on every call. The token stays out of the workflow and out of the logs.
Step 2
Import a request from Bonusly's docs
Add an HTTP Client step and paste a cURL example from Bonusly's API docs. Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, headers, and query.
Step 3
Start with “Get a recognition”
It's one of 19 documented actions, under Recognitions. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.
Step 4
Hand it to an AI agent
Wrap “Give recognition” and “Update a recognition” in workflows, and Tray.ai's Agent Gateway for MCP publishes them as governed tools Claude and other AI agents can call.
Give your AI agents Bonusly tools
