BambooHR Reference Architecture

Overview

Production-ready architecture for BambooHR integrations covering the three most common patterns: real-time employee sync, HR data pipeline, and employee lifecycle automation.

Prerequisites

Understanding of layered architecture and event-driven design
BambooHR API knowledge from earlier skills in this pack
TypeScript project setup with Node.js 18+

Issue	Cause	Solution
Sync data gaps	Missed webhooks + long incremental interval	Full sync as daily safety net
Duplicate processing	Webhook retry + no idempotency	Idempotency keys in sync log
Stale local data	Cache TTL too long	Webhook-based cache invalidation
Circular dependencies	Poor layer separation	Strict dependency direction (API > Service > Client > DB)
