Pick BambooHR from the marketplace. WorkAist handles API key and stores the credentials encrypted — no JSON keys to paste.
- 2Tools auto-generated
BambooHR exposes 6 MCP tools to every agent in your workspace: list_employees, get_profile, request_leave, list_payslips, and more. Each tool is a typed function, not a brittle script.
- 3Data flows to your graph
Historical hr records sync to your private knowledge graph. Agents query relationships across all connected sources, not just BambooHR in isolation.
- 4Your agents take action
Your AI agent picks the right tool, runs it under your access policies, and answers in plain language — with a full audit trail of every BambooHR call.
BambooHR is HR software you can connect to WorkAist in minutes. Through the open MCP standard, your AI agents screen candidates, schedule interviews and keep records up to date — autonomously, under explicit permissions, with no manual hand-offs. BambooHR authenticates via a secure API key, and because WorkAist is self-hosted under AGPL-3.0, your data never leaves your own infrastructure.
Authentication & setup

FAQ
Can a WorkAist AI agent really automate BambooHR end-to-end?▼
Yes. The connector exposes read and write tools through Model Context Protocol. AI agents call them through plain-language instructions in a CLAUDE.md file — no glue code.
How does this differ from using the BambooHR API directly?▼
The connector adds permission isolation, audit logging, cost tracking per agent, and reversible PII redaction at the LLM boundary. It also presents BambooHR as part of a unified Knowledge Graph alongside your other tools.
What does it cost?▼
WorkAist is open-source under AGPL-3.0 and self-hosted, so the connector itself is free. You pay only for BambooHR's own API costs (if any) and the LLM tokens your agent consumes.
Is my BambooHR data sent to a third party?▼
No. WorkAist runs in your own infrastructure. Data flows from BambooHR → your WorkAist instance → the LLM you choose. Sensitive fields can be tokenized before reaching the LLM.
What if BambooHR changes its API?▼
The connector is versioned and published openly. When BambooHR ships breaking changes, we bump the connector version and the marketplace UI surfaces the upgrade as a one-click apply.
