This guide will outline the steps needed to set up a HiBob integration.
Existing Customers
Before starting, please make sure the employee ID numbers in Compete match the employee ID numbers in HiBob.
Step 1 - Select your HRIS from the menu
Go to Settings > Data Management > Select your HRIS > Click on HiBob
Step 2 - Connect with your Service User or API Key
We recommend you to select the first option and create a Service User which will allow you to fully control the permissions.
Step 3 - Create the Service User in your HiBob Account
1) In your settings, go to integrations and click Manage Service Users.
2) Create a new Service User and copy the Service User ID and Token so you can easily paste it later to Compete
Step 4 - Create a Permission Group
1) Back in your Settings, go to Account > Permission Groups and select Add permission group.
2) Name the group, then, in the Group members section, choose Select people by condition and select Edit.
In the Select people by condition pop-up, delete the existing condition.
⚠ Do not skip this step!
HiBob's default configuration is to add all employees to a new permissions group. If you don't delete the existing condition this, employees might be exposed to compensation data.
Add the Service User previously created in the dropdown menu for Add Specific Employees then click Apply.
3) Finish the initial creation of the Group by selecting Create. If a pop-up appears, Confirm the creation of the group.
In this view please double check that the service user, and only the service user, is part of the permissions group (as can be seen in the image below).
Step 5 - Adding permissions
Under People's Data add the following permissions:
Address
Employment
Home
Lifecycle
Payroll
Personal
Work
* Please note we don't need any 'Edit' permissions.
** We do not support custom fields at the moment. For mandatory fields, you'll be able to add the data manually.
Step 6 - Paste the ID and Token to Compete
By clicking 'Submit' the integration will start.
