BambooHR Hello World
Overview
Minimal working examples for the three most common BambooHR API operations: fetch the employee directory, get a single employee by ID, and run a custom report.
Prerequisites
Completed bamboohr-install-auth setup
BAMBOOHR_API_KEY and BAMBOOHR_COMPANY_DOMAIN env vars set
Instructions
Step 1: Fetch Employee Directory
import 'dotenv/config' ;
const COMPANY = process.env .BAMBOOHR_COMPANY_DOMAIN !;
const API_KEY = process.env .BAMBOOHR_API_KEY !;
const BASE = `https://api.bamboohr.com/api/gateway.php/${COMPANY} /v1` ;
const AUTH = `Basic ${Buffer.from (`${API_KEY} :x` ).toString('base64' )} ` ;
const dirRes = await fetch (`${BASE} /employees/directory` , {
headers : { Authorization : AUTH , Accept : 'application/json' },
});
const directory = await dirRes.json ();
console .log (`Company has ${directory.employees.length} employees` );
for
const
of
employees
slice
0
5
console
log
` ${emp.displayName} — ${emp.jobTitle} (${emp.department} )`
Directory response shape:
{
"fields" : [
{ "id" : "displayName" , "type" : "text" , "name" : "Display Name" } ,
{ "id" : "jobTitle" , "type" : "text" , "name" : "Job Title" }
] ,
"employees" : [
{
"id" : "123" ,
"displayName" : "Jane Smith" ,
"firstName" : "Jane" ,
"lastName" : "Smith" ,
"jobTitle" : "Software Engineer" ,
"department" : "Engineering" ,
"location" : "Remote" ,
"workEmail" : "jane@acme.com" ,
"photoUrl" : "https://..."
}
]
}
Step 2: Get a Single Employee
const empRes = await fetch (
`${BASE} /employees/123/?fields=firstName,lastName,jobTitle,department,hireDate,workEmail,status` ,
{ headers : { Authorization : AUTH , Accept : 'application/json' } },
);
const employee = await empRes.json ();
console .log (`${employee.firstName} ${employee.lastName} ` );
console .log (` Title: ${employee.jobTitle} ` );
console .log (` Dept: ${employee.department} ` );
console .log (` Hired: ${employee.hireDate} ` );
console .log (` Email: ${employee.workEmail} ` );
Common employee fields you can request:
Field Description firstName, lastName, displayNameName fields jobTitle, department, divisionPosition workEmail, homeEmail, mobilePhoneContact hireDate, originalHireDateDates statusActive or InactiveemployeeNumber, location, supervisorOrg data payRate, payType, exemptCompensation (admin only)
Step 3: Run a Custom Report
const reportRes = await fetch (`${BASE} /reports/custom?format=JSON` , {
method : 'POST' ,
headers : {
Authorization : AUTH ,
'Content-Type' : 'application/json' ,
Accept : 'application/json' ,
},
body : JSON .stringify ({
title : 'Hello World Report' ,
fields : ['firstName' , 'lastName' , 'department' , 'jobTitle' , 'hireDate' ],
filters : {
lastChanged : { includeNull : 'no' , value : '2024-01-01T00:00:00Z' },
},
}),
});
const report = await reportRes.json ();
console .log (`Report: ${report.title} — ${report.employees.length} rows` );
for (const row of report.employees ) {
console .log (` ${row.firstName} ${row.lastName} | ${row.department} ` );
}
Python Equivalent import os, requests
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
COMPANY = os.environ["BAMBOOHR_COMPANY_DOMAIN" ]
API_KEY = os.environ["BAMBOOHR_API_KEY" ]
BASE = f"https://api.bamboohr.com/api/gateway.php/{COMPANY} /v1"
r = requests.get(f"{BASE} /employees/directory" ,
auth=(API_KEY, "x" ),
headers={"Accept" : "application/json" })
directory = r.json()
for emp in directory["employees" ][:5 ]:
print (f" {emp['displayName' ]} — {emp['jobTitle' ]} " )
r = requests.get(f"{BASE} /employees/123/" ,
params={"fields" : "firstName,lastName,department,hireDate" },
auth=(API_KEY, "x" ),
headers={"Accept" : "application/json" })
print (r.json())
Output
Employee directory listing with names, titles, and departments
Single employee detail response
Custom report with filtered results
Console output confirming working connection
Error Handling Error Cause Solution 401 Unauthorized Bad API key Check BAMBOOHR_API_KEY value 404 Not Found Wrong employee ID or company domain Verify ID exists; check BAMBOOHR_COMPANY_DOMAIN 400 Bad Request Invalid field name in request Check field name list in docs Empty employees array No active employees or permissions Verify API key has read access
