Overview

Learn how to get access to tools you can connect to Kombo for development purposes.

Sandbox Integrations

Creating Integrations

Learn how to authenticate with the Kombo API.

Authentication

Learn how to filter and paginate the Kombo `GET` endpoints. This will help you understand how to implement syncs and more.

Fetching Data

Learn how to get the newest data back from us after every sync.

Syncing Data

Our interactive embeddable connection flow.

Manually set up integrations on behalf of your customers.

Manual setup

Let your customers set up integrations without changing your app.

Magic links

Embed Kombo Connect into your app for the most seamless experience.

Embedded flow

Scopes allow you to customize what data is being synced by Kombo.

Scopes

How Kombo keeps integration data up-to-date without sacrificing API reliability and performance.

Real-time sync

Learn how to use custom fields to read any data from your customers.

Custom Fields

Kombo sends you webhooks so that you don't have to poll our API for changes.

Webhooks

Request Logs

Deletion Policy

Learn how existing partnerships to integrated systems can be used with Kombo.

Partner Credentials

Implement any edge case feature with our passthrough API.

Passthrough API

Learn how Kombo allows you to write additional, otherwise unsupported fields with unified write actions.

Extend write endpoints

Generate a unique link that allows your user to enter the embedded Kombo Connect flow.

Create connection link

Activate an integration that was just created via Kombo Connect.

Activate integration

Create a link that will allow the user to reconnect an integration. This is useful if you want to allow your users to update the credentials if the old ones for example expired.

Create reconnection link

Get a list of the tools (i.e., integrations) enabled in your environment.

Get tools

Get the specified integration with everything you need to display it to your customer.

Get integration details

Delete integration

Trigger a sync for a specific integration.

Trigger sync

Check whether your API key is working properly.

Check API key

Send a request to the specified integration's native API.

Learn how to set up a DATEV payroll integration with Kombo.

DATEV Integration

Create absence

Delete absence

This action allows to send an arbitrary ASCII file directly to DATEV LODAS or Lohn und Gehalt. Kombo adds validation for the file format but not on the content. This action allows you to implement any use case that you might have with DATEV payroll ASCII imports.

Write raw DATEV ASCII file

What DATEV requires to prepare payroll is very specific and currently, as DATEV is not providing "read", this is not part of the unified model.

Prepare DATEV Payroll

Sets the compensations for an employee on the specified effective date.

Set DATEV compensations

Returns all "DATEV Data Pushes" of the last 2 months. You can use this endpoint to give your users transparency about submitted "ASCII-Files" and their status. Each data push can contain multiple files that were submitted.

Get DATEV data pushes

Uploads the currently relevant general data (employees, compensations, and time offs) to DATEV. This will create so called ASCII files that the accountant has to import in DATEV. You can call this endpoint to implement an on-demand sync to DATEV, for example if you want to offer your users a button to do that in your application.

Push general data to DATEV

Uploads the currently relevant payroll data (supplements) to DATEV. This will create so called ASCII files that the accountant has to import in DATEV. After finishing the payroll preparation or after correcting payroll, you can call this.

Push payroll data to DATEV

Learn how to get started with Kombo's unified ATS API.

Learn how to attach source information to applications easily.

Application attribution

Attach your candidates' answers to screening questions when creating applications.

Screening questions

Get jobs

Get all application stages available in the ATS.
