How the BambooHR Integration Works

BambooHR is one of Matter’s supported HRIS platforms. When connected, Matter can automatically sync employee data into Matter to streamline employee data management and support automated celebrations like birthdays and work anniversaries.

After setting up your HRIS integration, Matter can automatically sync BambooHR data into Matter, and admins can manage the integration from the HRIS configuration page. Matter also supports actions like 24-hour automatic syncing, starting a sync immediately, viewing sync history, reconnecting the HRIS, and disconnecting it when needed.

Why teams use Matter with BambooHR

Matter treats synced HRIS fields as the source of truth for standard data like date of birth, direct manager, ethnicity, gender, hire date, and job title. Teams can also extend that data with Member Properties to support better filtering, reporting, and personalization across Matter.
