Hibob integration.

Connect your Hibob workflow to the systems your business runs on. Work with a Stacksync engineer to confirm the connection and required operations, starting with People (Employees) and Documents.

  • Review your systems with an integration engineer
  • Get a scoped implementation and validation plan

Record types

Hibob records to discuss.

These Hibob record examples help scope a technical review. They are not a list of verified Stacksync operations.

Connection setup

Hibob connection requirements.

Review Hibob access and the operations your workflow needs with Stacksync. The vendor API reference below can help your administrator prepare for that discussion.

Prepare access and scope for the engineering review
  • Identify the Hibob account, edition, environment, and business objects the integration must access.
  • Confirm a Stacksync connector or implementation path for Hibob, including read/write support, authentication, and initial-load limits.

Integration design

Match records and fields for your Hibob integration.

Separate a person from employment records, assignments, and candidate applications. Decide how future-dated changes, transfers, and rehires reach downstream applications.

Use these design questions to prepare a representative record and the business rules your integration must preserve.

Mapping checks by record type

People (Employees)

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity

Fields to consider

Related records to resolve first
Resolve organization, position, manager, and effective-date context before dependent changes.
Test before going live
Test a future-dated transfer, a rehire, concurrent assignments, and an employee with a missing manager.

Documents

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity
Keep file/object ID, container, and version. A path can change and a filename can repeat.
Fields to consider
Source file ID · Container reference · Version · Metadata · Access classification
Related records to resolve first
Resolve folder/container and parent-record references before attaching metadata.
Test before going live
Test a renamed file, a new version, a moved folder, and an access-restricted document.

Download the field-mapping workbook (CSV) to capture the actual API fields, matching keys, owners, and test results. Use it as you build with your team or a Stacksync engineer.

Setup and validation

Validate the Hibob integration in four steps.

A future-dated change takes effect at the agreed time; a rehire links to the correct person without duplicating their employment history.

View the four setup tests and expected results

  1. Verify Hibob credentials and resource scope

    After confirming an implementation path, validate the selected access method with the intended account, region or workspace, and resource scope. Record the credential owner and renewal procedure, then demonstrate access to one selected object.

    Expected result: The selected resource is accessible through the approved credential, with the renewal and revocation procedure assigned to an owner.

  2. Test record matching for People (Employees)

    Using the implementation established in the compatibility review, preserve the selected source ID and resolve the required references. Test a future-dated transfer, a rehire, concurrent assignments, and an employee with a missing manager.

    Expected result: A future-dated change takes effect at the agreed time; a rehire links to the correct person without duplicating their employment history.

  3. Test the operation your workflow needs

    Review one Hibob record with a Stacksync engineer. Confirm how it should reach the other system, how often it must update, and whether your workflow needs reads, creates, or updates. Test those operations before expanding the integration.

    Expected result: The selected operation is confirmed, addresses the intended record, and exposes rejected values for repair.

  4. Test recovery and name the support owner

    For the confirmed implementation, interrupt a non-production transfer and restore access. Establish whether recovery uses the current source state or a stored historical event, and verify that repeated delivery preserves record identity.

    Expected result: The records have the expected current values, repeated delivery creates no duplicate business record, and your team knows who handles unresolved errors.

Use the production-readiness checklist to record test results, assign support owners, and agree on when to go live.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshoot your Hibob integration.

Diagnose record matching, delayed changes, and rejected operations
A Hibob record appears under the wrong destination record
Use the worker/employment ID and distinguish a person from their employment records, assignments, or rehires. Resolve organization, position, manager, and effective-date context before dependent changes. Repair the ID relationship before repeating the operation.
The first load looks correct but later results differ
Confirm the selected Hibob implementation’s change-detection method for People (Employees) and Documents. Compare later changes with the original source rather than using a successful initial copy as evidence of ongoing capture.
One operation succeeds while another is rejected
Check the specific Hibob object, field permissions, required references, and allowed operation. A successful read does not establish that a create, update, deletion, or business action is available.

Review retry, replay, and recovery behavior before repeating an operation that may already have succeeded.

FAQ

Hibob connector FAQ

How should I plan an integration with Hibob?

Separate a person from employment records, assignments, and candidate applications. Decide how future-dated changes, transfers, and rehires reach downstream applications. Confirm the connection and read/write operations with Stacksync. Start with one workflow, agree on which fields each system owns, then test initial data, later changes, and recovery before expanding.

Can the Hibob connector write changes back?

Write-back support is not established for this connection. Review the Hibob records and fields you need with a Stacksync engineer, then test the required operation with a representative record.

Which identifiers should I preserve for Hibob data?

Use the worker/employment ID and distinguish a person from their employment records, assignments, or rehires.

Which related records should I load first for Hibob?

Resolve organization, position, manager, and effective-date context before dependent changes.

How do I validate Hibob changes after the initial load?

Test a future-dated transfer, a rehire, concurrent assignments, and an employee with a missing manager. A future-dated change takes effect at the agreed time; a rehire links to the correct person without duplicating their employment history.

What will we cover in a Hibob integration demo?

Start with one workflow and a sample record from People (Employees) and Documents. We can review how to identify the record, connect related data, set the update direction, and test recovery. Include the person who owns the source system and anyone who will maintain the integration; you do not need a finished requirements document.
