Why teams connect Dun And Bradstreet and Hibob

Flow Dun And Bradstreet data into Hibob in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

Dun And Bradstreet 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 Dun And Bradstreet — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Dun And Bradstreet 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 Sync the D&B corporate family tree (parent and subsidiary DUNS) into the CRM so ABM and territory owners see full account hierarchies and roll pipeline up to the global ultimate.
  • 02 Build target-account lists with Criteria Search and land the resulting DUNS plus firmographics in a database for outbound and TAM analysis.
  • 03 Two-way sync People (employee) profiles and Work records with a Postgres database so internal apps and directories read profiles in SQL while HR corrections flow back into Bob.
  • 04 Auto-provision or deprovision accounts in an IdP, ticketing tool, or app database when Bob Lifecycle events fire employee joined or terminated.

Common sync patterns

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Hibob records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Dun And Bradstreet, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

When a person changes team, manager, or region in Hibob, their accounts and territory assignments in Dun And Bradstreet update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

Deactivate access when someone leaves

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

What you can sync between Dun And Bradstreet 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.

Dun And Bradstreet objects Hibob objects How this pairing syncs
Identity Resolution (Match / cleanseMatch) Sends a company name and address and returns ranked candidate DUNS with confidence codes and a MatchGrade; read-only scored match, not an exact lookup. Time off Absence requests and who's-out data via /timeoff/employees/{id}/requests and /timeoff/whosout; submit new requests and read balances. Identity Resolution (Match / cleanseMatch) is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Time off to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Criteria Search Query companies by firmographic criteria (industry, geography, size) and get back a list of D-U-N-S Numbers to enrich; read-only list building. Lifecycle Hire, termination, and leave status changes at /people/{id}/lifecycle; read-only and the source of lifecycle webhook events. Criteria Search is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Lifecycle to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Monitoring Notifications Change notices for a registered portfolio of DUNS; read-only feed pulled from the notifications endpoint (retained ~60 days) or delivered as bundled push. Documents Employee documents accessed under the Docs API; gated behind the Documents permission granted per service user. Monitoring Notifications is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Documents to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Information (Data Block) Core firmographics for a D-U-N-S Number - legal name, addresses, industry codes, employees, sales, status. Retrieved read-only via the Enrich endpoint; blocks come in levels L1-L4. Named lists Dropdown option lists such as departments and sites used to resolve field values when mapping People records during sync. Company Information (Data Block) is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Named lists to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Principals & Contacts (Data Block) Company officers, executives, and contacts tied to a D-U-N-S Number; read-only enrichment used to populate CRM contact and account-owner fields. 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. Principals & Contacts (Data Block) is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and People (Employees) to Hibob — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Hierarchy & Connections (Family Tree) Parent, subsidiary, branch, and global-ultimate DUNS relationships; read-only, used to build account hierarchies and corporate-family rollups. Employment Historical table of job terms, contract, and working pattern under /people/{id}/employment; full CRUD, entries keyed by effectiveDate.

How changes propagate between Dun And Bradstreet 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.

Dun And Bradstreet Hibob Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Dun And Bradstreet for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via D&B Monitoring - register a portfolio of DUNS and pull change notices from the notifications endpoint (retained ~60 days).

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

Hibob Dun And Bradstreet 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.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Dun And Bradstreet: Per-contract transactions-per-second cap plus weekly/monthly/yearly quotas; exceeding TPS returns HTTP 429 with error 0045/0046 (0047 on spike arrest). Quotas reset on UTC boundaries.
  • 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.
