Why teams connect 6sense and Hibob

Flow 6sense data into Hibob in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

6sense is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Hibob, so Hibob always reflects the current state of 6sense — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

6sense runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Hibob. Hibob is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land account-level intent data in a warehouse to join with pipeline data for ABM reporting.
  • 02 Enrich inbound leads with 6sense firmographic and account-match data before routing.
  • 03 Mirror Work data (department, site, manager, title) into an org-chart or reporting warehouse for headcount and structure analysis.
  • 04 Sync Time off requests and who's-out data into a scheduling or workforce-planning database for coverage and capacity reporting.

Common sync patterns

Deactivate access when someone leaves

When Hibob marks a worker as departed, the matching user in 6sense is flagged or deactivated, so former employees do not keep CRM access after their last day.

One directory of people

A person's name, title, email, phone, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so both stop maintaining separate copies of the same individual.

Where Hibob tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Hibob, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in 6sense, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

What you can sync between 6sense and Hibob

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

6sense objects Hibob objects How this pairing syncs
Intent Signals Keyword-level research activity used to flag in-market accounts. Documents Employee documents accessed under the Docs API; gated behind the Documents permission granted per service user. Intent Signals is specific to 6sense and Documents to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People / Contacts Persona and contact data surfaced for accounts, used to build outreach lists. Named lists Dropdown option lists such as departments and sites used to resolve field values when mapping People records during sync. People / Contacts is specific to 6sense and Named lists to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reach Scores Model scores reflecting the level and recency of outreach to an account or contact, used to prioritize follow-up. People (Employees) Core employee records with out-of-the-box and custom fields; read via POST /people/search, created and updated through the /people endpoints. Reach Scores is specific to 6sense and People (Employees) to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts Company records enriched with firmographics and intent data, matched to CRM accounts. Employment Historical table of job terms, contract, and working pattern under /people/{id}/employment; full CRUD, entries keyed by effectiveDate. Accounts is specific to 6sense and Employment to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Dynamic account lists built from intent and fit criteria, read out to drive targeting. Work Reporting line, department, site, and title under /people/{id}/work; drives the org chart and is synced two-way to directories. Segments is specific to 6sense and Work to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buying Stage Scores Model-predicted stage per account, synced onto CRM records for prioritization. Salaries Compensation history at /people/{id}/salaries; full CRUD but gated behind the Payroll permission on the service user. Buying Stage Scores is specific to 6sense and Salaries to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between 6sense and Hibob

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

6sense Hibob Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls 6sense for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Hibob through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Hibob 6sense Sub-second propagation

DetectionHibob notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire for employee created/updated/deleted, table-entry created/updated, time off, and lifecycle events.

Delivery6sense does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: 6sense's output flows back as field updates on the originating Hibob records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • 6sense: Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by contracted API package.
  • Hibob: Rate limits are enforced per service user; violations return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset response headers. The docs list POST /people/search at 50 requests per minute, and bulk /people/search is preferred over per-record reads.
