HiBob is turning Bob into a full HR system-of-record API

public-apihrisintegrationshiringattendancepermissions
◆Current state
HiBob is broadening its Public API well beyond its original job-ads scope. In recent months it has shipped core Hiring data and search endpoints, end-to-end Attendance management with clock-in/out, a Learning API that ingests external course catalogs, plus Time Off, Goals, and field-level permission controls. The throughline is exposing Bob's underlying HR objects programmatically.
◆Where it's heading
Bob is positioning to be the integration hub of an HR stack rather than a closed app: each release fills another data domain (hiring, attendance, learning, goals) with read and write access. Field-Level Permissions and cleaner webhook payloads suggest the API is maturing toward production integration use, not just reporting.
◆Prediction
Expect continued endpoint coverage across the remaining HR domains and further hardening of permissions and webhooks as more integrations treat Bob as the system of record.

◆Recent moves

    Goals API: startValue added to key results

    Adds a startValue field to measurable key results so integrations can store the baseline used for 'from X to Y' progress, including decreasing metrics; a small but real gap-fill in the Goals API.

    Employee data webhooks: table entry events payload updated

    Tightens the table.entry webhook payloads so row-identifier fields appear only when relevant to the table type, a compatibility-affecting refinement for integrators consuming employee-data events.

    Learning API: Add your own learning content

    ⚡ SPARK

    Opens Bob Learning to external content providers via API, letting companies ingest a third-party course catalog and sync learner progress; a new capability category rather than another data endpoint.

    Attendance API: new field specialRateEligibleHours

    Adds a single specialRateEligibleHours field to attendance responses to mirror a new premium-pay rule; a narrow alignment change for attendance integrations.
