List of Fields Sent to HiBob

When you send a candidate to HiBob from Pinpoint, we send a small set of standard HiBob employee fields (the ones you can review and edit in the Send to Bob form) plus a large set of HiBob custom fields carrying almost all of the candidate's Job, Application, Offer and Onboarding data.

The custom field list is generated automatically from the data Pinpoint holds, so it grows as new fields are added to Pinpoint. The tables below reflect the current list.

The full custom field list applies to the Data Mapping workflow, which is used by all HiBob integrations set up on or after 1 September 2023. Integrations set up before that date use the original HiBob workflow, which sends only the standard fields listed in Fields you can edit in the Send to Bob form plus a single Birth date custom field.

Fields you can edit in the Send to Bob form

These fields are pre-filled from Pinpoint and can be changed before you send the candidate. They map to standard HiBob employee fields.

Nothing selected by default

Job Title, Department and Location (Site) must match the names used in your HiBob account exactly, otherwise HiBob will reject the value.

Documents lists everything Pinpoint holds for the candidate - files submitted with the application, their CV, background check reports, the signed offer letter, application answer attachments and onboarding documents. Each selected file is sent to HiBob as a name and a download link.

How Payment Period and Payment Frequency are mapped

HiBob only accepts its own preset values, so Pinpoint translates them. If a Pinpoint value has no HiBob equivalent, the field is left blank for you to choose.

Getting newly added fields into HiBob

The field list is generated fresh every time you send someone, so a new custom field, a new onboarding question, or a new field released by Pinpoint is picked up automatically - there is nothing to change in your integration settings.

To get new fields onto HiBob's mapping screen without waiting for a real candidate, re-send the demo user: open your HiBob integration settings in Pinpoint and click Send to Bob in the Send demo user to Bob card. Pinpoint sends the complete current field list with example values, so every field - including the new ones - arrives in HiBob ready to be mapped.

A few things to check first:

  • The demo candidate email shown in that card must be set as the demo candidate in your HiBob Hire API settings.

  • Onboarding answer fields are only included if Onboarding is enabled on your account.

  • New onboarding questions must be saved to your question bank before they will be sent.

Good to know

  • Empty fields are left out. Any field with no value is dropped from the data we send, so HiBob only receives the fields the candidate actually has. A Yes/No field set to No still counts as a value and is sent.

  • Data is a snapshot. Everything is read at the moment you press Send to Bob. Later changes in Pinpoint are not pushed to HiBob.
