Why teams connect Monday and Success Factors

Keep the people, teams, and status that Monday and Success Factors share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.

Each tool in Monday keeps its own list of who can use it: users, members, or agents, along with the team they sit on and whether they are still active. Success Factors is the authoritative record of the same people as employees, with their department, manager, and employment status. When those two are connected only by manual account admin or a periodic export, the work tools drift: new hires wait days for access, team and manager changes never catch up, and people who have left keep standing accounts.

Stacksync syncs Subitems, Column values, Groups, Updates in Monday with EmpEmployment, EmpJob, EmpCompensation, Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) in Success Factors bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Success Factors creates or updates the matching user in Monday within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Monday captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Success Factors in whichever direction you configure.

Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps its own extras; only the shared facts, who a person is, which team they belong to, and whether their access should be on, are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync of Items and their Column values between a monday.com board and Postgres so ops teams work in SQL while project owners stay in monday.com.
  • 02 Write closed deals or provisioning records from a CRM or ERP into monday.com Items to kick off delivery and onboarding boards.
  • 03 Replicate EmpCompensation and EmpJob effective-dated history into a warehouse for headcount, attrition, and compensation reporting without CSV pulls.
  • 04 Keep Foundation Objects (department, location, cost center) aligned between SuccessFactors and an ERP so cost-center and org hierarchies match.

Common sync patterns

Org and team structure kept current

Department, team, and reporting-line changes from Success Factors keep the groups, queues, or projects in Monday assigned to the right people.

Where Monday routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org

When someone changes teams or managers in Success Factors, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Monday update to match, so work reaches whoever holds the role now.

Onboarding: access ready on day one

A new hire recorded in Success Factors creates the matching user in Monday with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.

What you can sync between Monday and Success Factors

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.

Monday objects Success Factors objects How this pairing syncs
Users Account members referenced by people columns; read to resolve owner and assignee IDs to names and emails. User Core identity/User entity behind role-based permissions; a model distinct from Employee Central, synced two-way with a directory or IdP and downstream apps. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Boards Table-like containers that hold items; each board maps to a synced table, and its columns define the field mapping. PerPerson Person-level container in Employee Central holding biographical data; effective-dated child entities (PerPersonal, PerEmail, PerPhone) hang off it. Boards is specific to Monday and PerPerson to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Rows within a board and the primary record; synced two-way and created, updated, archived, or deleted via GraphQL mutations. EmpEmployment Employment record tying a person to an employment period (hire, service dates); carries lastModifiedDateTime used for incremental polling. Items is specific to Monday and EmpEmployment to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subitems Nested rows under items, stored on a separate hidden board; synced as a child table linked to the parent item. EmpJob Effective-dated job info: position, department, manager, FTE, pay grade, cost center; the most-synced record for downstream HR and provisioning. Subitems is specific to Monday and EmpJob to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Column values Typed fields (status, date, people, numbers, connect-boards); polymorphic JSON usually written together via change_multiple_column_values. EmpCompensation Effective-dated pay and compensation; usually read into a warehouse for reporting, writable for comp updates as new dated slices. Column values is specific to Monday and EmpCompensation to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Named sections that group items inside a board; synced as a grouping attribute or category field on the row. Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) Org-structure master data (department, location, cost center, division); mastered elsewhere and written in, or read out to build org charts. Groups is specific to Monday and Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Monday and Success Factors

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.

Monday Success Factors Sub-second propagation

DetectionMonday notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Board-scoped webhooks (create_item, change_column_value, item_deleted, and similar) for real-time events.

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

Success Factors Monday Sub-second propagation

DetectionSuccess Factors notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on each entity's lastModifiedDateTime / lastModifiedOn (effective-dated entities require date-range handling).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Monday: Complexity-budget limits: a single query caps at 5M complexity points and ~10M points/min per user token (1M on trial/free) over a sliding 60s window.
  • Success Factors: OData calls are throttled at the tenant level (Access Limits for OData V2); large reads must be paginated (default page size 1000) via $top/$skip or paging cursors.

How the Monday and Success Factors connectors work

Monday

OAuth 2.0 for installed apps, or a per-user personal API token (admin/member scope); a date-based API version is sent via request header
Change detection
Board-scoped webhooks (create_item, change_column_value, item_deleted, and similar) for real-time events; polling falls back to the item updated_at field

Success Factors

Integration surface
OData V2 and V4 REST APIs (plus legacy SFAPI / Compound Employee SOAP API)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 SAML Bearer Assertion — register an OAuth client for an API key (used as client_id), then exchange a signed SAML assertion for a short-lived access token; legacy HTTP Basic auth is being retired
Change detection
Polling on each entity's lastModifiedDateTime / lastModifiedOn (effective-dated entities require date-range handling); Intelligent Services can also push a fixed set of standard business events (e.g. Employee Hire) to a REST endpoint
