Connect Arbor Workflows to MyNewTerm to allow automated kick off of a Onboarding workflow for new starters. This will need to be done before any workflows can be triggered.
How does this work?
For any integration to work, you must authenticate with MyNewTerm. Each individual school needs to provide authentication—you'll then be able to use the integration for any schools that have authenticated.
This trigger can only be used for one workflow. If multiple workflows are set to be trigger by My New Term, they will all be triggered on each transfer of data from My New Term - resulting in duplicate workflow runs.
The trigger form within the MyNewTerm templates has been preconfigured and coded to be triggered by MyNewTerm once it is live and the authentication has happened. Therefore it cannot be edited.
Providing Authentication for MyNewTerm
Setting up authentication with MyNewTerm involves several steps. Since this process cannot be fully automated, follow these instructions:
- Navigate to the settings page and School settings.
- Click on integrations, then select the MyNewTerm integration.
- You'll see a list of your schools. You need to add an API key for each school. The same API key can be used for multiple schools if they share a MyNewTerm instance.
- Click on "Authenticate" for the school you wish to add an API key for.
- Select and copy the generated API key.
- Next, head to MyNewTerm.

Whichever Arbor 2026 package you are using, we have a template ready for you to use to build the New Starter workflow ready to receive the data from MyNewTerm and create the new staff record in Arbor MIS. Your initial form will be triggered from MyNewTerm, so it must match a template that allows data to flow from MyNewTerm
The questions in the template trigger form match the MyNewTerm template and data fields listed above.
Once you have set up the template from the Template Library please contact us to make sure we are ready to receive data from MNT into the workflow.
