RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS respondsRUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit bamboohrWhen to use: User wants to find employees or get the full employee directory
Tool sequence:
BAMBOOHR_GET_ALL_EMPLOYEES - Get the employee directory [Required]BAMBOOHR_GET_EMPLOYEE - Get detailed info for a specific employee [Optional]Key parameters:
id: Employee ID (numeric)fields: Comma-separated list of fields to return (e.g., 'firstName,lastName,department,jobTitle')Pitfalls:
fields parameter controls which fields are returned; omitting it may return minimal datastatus fieldWhen to use: User wants to detect recent employee data changes for sync or auditing
Tool sequence:
BAMBOOHR_EMPLOYEE_GET_CHANGED - Get employees with recent changes [Required]Key parameters:
since: ISO 8601 datetime string for change detection thresholdtype: Type of changes to check (e.g., 'inserted', 'updated', 'deleted')Pitfalls:
since parameter is required; use ISO 8601 format (e.g., '2024-01-15T00:00:00Z')When to use: User wants to view time-off balances, request time off, or manage requests
Tool sequence:
BAMBOOHR_GET_META_TIME_OFF_TYPES - List available time-off types [Prerequisite]BAMBOOHR_GET_TIME_OFF_BALANCES - Check current balances [Optional]BAMBOOHR_GET_TIME_OFF_REQUESTS - List existing requests [Optional]BAMBOOHR_CREATE_TIME_OFF_REQUEST - Submit a new request [Optional]BAMBOOHR_UPDATE_TIME_OFF_REQUEST - Modify or approve/deny a request [Optional]Key parameters:
employeeId, time-off type IDstart, end (date range), employeeIdemployeeId: Employee to request fortimeOffTypeId: Type ID from GET_META_TIME_OFF_TYPESstart: Start date (YYYY-MM-DD)end: End date (YYYY-MM-DD)amount: Number of days/hoursnotes: Optional notes for the requestrequestId, status ('approved', 'denied', 'cancelled')Pitfalls:
When to use: User wants to modify employee profile data
Tool sequence:
BAMBOOHR_GET_EMPLOYEE - Get current employee data [Prerequisite]BAMBOOHR_UPDATE_EMPLOYEE - Update employee fields [Required]Key parameters:
id: Employee ID (numeric, required)department, jobTitle, workPhone)Pitfalls:
When to use: User wants to view employee dependents or benefit coverage
Tool sequence:
BAMBOOHR_DEPENDENTS_GET_ALL - List all dependents [Required]BAMBOOHR_BENEFIT_GET_COVERAGES - Get benefit coverage details [Optional]Key parameters:
employeeId filterPitfalls:
Employee name -> Employee ID:
1. Call BAMBOOHR_GET_ALL_EMPLOYEES
2. Find employee by name in directory results
3. Extract id (numeric) for detailed operations
Time-off type name -> Type ID:
1. Call BAMBOOHR_GET_META_TIME_OFF_TYPES
2. Find type by name (e.g., 'Vacation', 'Sick Leave')
3. Extract id for time-off requests
For keeping external systems in sync with BambooHR:
1. Store last_sync_timestamp
2. Call BAMBOOHR_EMPLOYEE_GET_CHANGED with since=last_sync_timestamp
3. For each changed employee ID, call BAMBOOHR_GET_EMPLOYEE
4. Process updates in external system
5. Update last_sync_timestamp
1. GET_META_TIME_OFF_TYPES -> find type ID
2. GET_TIME_OFF_BALANCES -> verify available balance
3. CREATE_TIME_OFF_REQUEST -> submit request
4. UPDATE_TIME_OFF_REQUEST -> approve/deny (manager action)
