AI HR Agent for BambooHR & Company Policies

Unlock Instant HR Support with this AI Agent

This is a sophisticated AI-driven chatbot designed to be your company's internal HR expert. It uses a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) approach to understand and answer employee queries. First, it automatically ingests your company policy documents (like handbooks and benefits overviews) from BambooHR, converts them into searchable knowledge, and stores them in a Supabase vector database. When an employee asks a question, the agent finds the most relevant information from your documents and provides a clear, conversational answer.

What makes this agent powerful is its multi-tool capability. Beyond just reading documents, it has a live lookup tool that queries your BambooHR instance in real-time to find employee details, department heads, or supervisor information, giving it a dynamic understanding of your organization.

1. Import the workflow JSON into your n8n instance.
2. Configure the initial 'GET all files' BambooHR node with your credentials. This part is for ingesting the documents. You can run it manually once to populate the database.
3. Configure the 'Supabase Vector Store' nodes with your Supabase project URL and API key.
4. Enter your OpenAI API Key in all the 'OpenAI Chat Model' and 'Embeddings OpenAI' nodes.
5. Configure the BambooHR nodes within the 'Employee Lookup Tool' path (the second half of the workflow) with your credentials.
6. Review and customize the system prompt in the 'HR AI Agent' node to match your company's tone and specific guidelines.
7. Activate the workflow. The 'Employee initiates a conversation' node provides a webhook URL to integrate with your chat interface (e.g., website widget, Slack, Teams).
