What Harmony Syncs

From HiBob:

  • Employee profiles and personal information

  • Employment details (job title, department, employment type)

  • Organizational data (manager, direct reports, hierarchy)

  • Work information (location, phone, time zone)

  • Employment dates (start date, end date)

  • Custom fields relevant to IT operations

  • Department structure and sub-departments

  • Status changes (active, terminated, etc.)

  • Position level (Individual Contributor, Management, Senior Management, or Executive Leadership), mapped from HiBob's org level data

Position Level Sync

Harmony automatically syncs each employee's position level from HiBob into their Harmony profile. Levels are standardised into four categories mapped directly from HiBob's org level data:

HiBob Org Level
Harmony Position Level

Individual Contributor

Individual Contributor

Management

Management

Senior Management

Senior Management

Executive Leadership

Executive Leadership

This means your support workflows and automations can reference an employee's seniority tier without any manual data entry.

Using HiBob Blocks in Agent Workflows

HiBob blocks in the Agent workflow builder expose proper inputs and outputs, making it straightforward to connect them to other steps in your workflows. You can:

  • Pass data into HiBob blocks - supply context from earlier steps to filter or enrich queries

  • Use results downstream - feed employee data returned by a HiBob block into subsequent workflow logic

  • Resolve employees automatically - blocks support Employee ID resolution, so Harmony can identify and look up the right employee record as part of a running workflow

HiBob blocks behave consistently with all other blocks in the builder, giving you a reliable and predictable building experience.

Use Cases

Role-Based Access Management

Automatically adjust access permissions when employee roles change

Department-Based Request Routing
