Hi guys,

I am looking for someone who has experience with a generic extractor for BambooHr or can help me with the formatting of an output I am getting. 

So far I've come across two issues.

1) When I try to get data from a custom table (customAdditionalJobInformation) via code below.

"jobs": [
    {
     "endpoint": "employees/directory",
     "dataField": "employees",
     "dataType": "employee_output",
     "children": [
      {
       "endpoint": "employees/{id}/tables/jobInfo",
       "dataField": ".",
       "placeholders": {
        "id": "id"
       }
      },
      {
       "endpoint": "employees/{id}/tables/employmentStatus",
       "dataField": ".",
       "placeholders": {
        "id": "id"
       }
      },
      {
       "endpoint": "employees/{id}/tables/customAdditionalJobInformation",
       "dataField": ".",
       "placeholders": {
        "id": "id"
       }
      }
     ]

For each employee, I get a list of dictionaries instead of a table like I am getting for jobInfo of employementstatus. Moreover, there is a header with columns data and parent id(can be seen in the screenshot below).

I am attaching also an example of a response in postman. It seems to be the same as a response from jobInfo. So I am not sure why i am getting results in a different format.

customAdditionalJobInformation

jobInfo

So my question is if I can somehow get the results in a better format and how. Or if I need to run the results through some python transformation. 

documentation: tabular date

2) Second issue appears when I try to get a list of users as per documentation here list of users .

 "jobs": [
    {
     "endpoint": "meta/users/",
     "dataField": ".",
     "dataType": "meta_users"
    }
   ]

The above code returns results in a really weird format as can be seen below.

In postman, it looks like this.

When I remove "dataField":"." then i get this warning:

logger.WARNING: No data array found in response! (endpoint: meta/users/)

I hope it is clear and I would really appreciate any help or hints on how to solve these issues. 

Thank you very much.

Have a nice day.
