Assessment API Updates - July 26, 2026

Highlights

  • ✍️ Greenhouse: Write Results as Notes: You now have the option to write assessment results back to a candidate's profile as a note in Greenhouse. This provides another way to surface assessment outcomes to recruiters directly within their workflow.

πŸš€ What else we've shipped

  • πŸͺœ iCIMS: You can now configure assessments to be triggered when a candidate is moved into one of several different application statuses, offering more flexibility than being limited to a single stage.
  • πŸ› SuccessFactors: We've fixed an issue that could occur when creating an assessment order for a candidate with missing information.
  • βš™οΈ General: We improved the API consistency for Avature, Jobylon, and PageUp and enhanced the connection flow reliability for Ashby.

HRIS API Updates - July 26, 2026

Highlights

  • πŸ—‘οΈ Smarter Timesheet Deletion Tracking: We've improved how we handle deletion tracking for timesheets. The system now respects the configured historical sync window (e.g., 2 months), preventing older timesheet records that fall outside this window from being incorrectly marked as deleted during a sync.

πŸš€ What else we've shipped

✨ New Capabilities & Enhancements:

  • Workday: Timesheet sync now includes open time clock events for employees who are currently clocked in. We also improved the `create-employee` action by relaxing some form field requirements.
  • HiBob: You can now access employee bank account details as mappable custom fields via a new integration setting. We also improved the handling of canceled absences during delta syncs.
  • Paycor: Job titles are now populated only for the most recent employment record. A new setting also allows you to sync only the single most recent employment record per employee.
  • OysterHR: You can now connect to an OysterHR sandbox environment for testing purposes.

⚑️ Performance & Reliability:

  • Improved the performance of syncs for integrations with a very large number of positions (such as Workday) by adding throttling to certain database operations.
  • SFTP: Fixed a character encoding issue for a specific customer's connection (Peter Hahn) to ensure names with special characters are synced correctly.
  • We also shipped reliability fixes for Loket, Payfit, Personio, BambooHR, SAP SuccessFactors, and DATEV HR.

Highlights

  • πŸš€ New Integration: Perbility Helix: We've added support for the Perbility Helix ATS, built on the Concludis platform.
  • πŸ€– Major AI Apply Expansion: Our AI Apply feature now supports job applications for SAP Hana, Occupop, and white-labeled Greenhouse job boards, significantly expanding its coverage.
  • πŸ”Ί Cornerstone TalentLink Enhancements: This integration now supports delta syncs, allowing for faster and more efficient data updates. We've also added the ability to sync job hiring teams.
  • ⚑️ Performance Boost for Large Accounts: We've shipped significant performance improvements for fetching data using `updated_after` filters on the Applications and Interviews endpoints. This will result in substantially faster syncs for integrations with large data volumes, such as Greenhouse.

πŸš€ What else we've shipped

✨ New Capabilities:

  • Cornerstone TalentLink: Added new actions to move an application to a different stage and to add a note to an application.
  • Recruitee: You can now sync candidate offer letters.
  • Avionte: Added support for syncing job contacts as ATS users.
  • JobAdder: The connection process has been updated. It is no longer a partner-only integration and now uses a standard OAuth flow where you can provide your own Client ID and Secret.
  • πŸ€– AI Apply Improvements: We've made numerous reliability and coverage enhancements to our AI Apply feature for iCIMS, Volcanic, Pinpoint, Harri, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, CHG, Harbour ATS, and Oracle.

πŸ”§ Integration Fixes & Enhancements:

  • Teamtailor: Screening question answers are now correctly associated with the job on the candidate's card.
  • Greenhouse: Improved authentication reliability to prevent sync failures from concurrent token refreshes and added a new setting to make the hiring permission optional.
  • Taleez: Improved sync reliability by correctly handling applications linked to deleted jobs.
  • Oracle Recruiting: The `create-candidate` action now fails faster and with a clearer error message when a job is already closed.
  • We also shipped improvements for Crelate, JazzHR, Kula, Pinpoint, Bullhorn, and Jobvite.

Platform Updates - July 26, 2026

Highlights

  • 🚧 Improved Provisioning Filter Safety: We've added a new safeguard to prevent changes to custom field mappings that would break an active employee provisioning filter. The mapping page will now indicate if a field is used in a filter and lock changes until the filter is updated, ensuring your sync configurations remain consistent.
  • πŸ“Š Enhanced Data Explorer: You can now filter data in the Data Explorer by any field, making it easier to find specific records. The interface now also includes a counter showing the number of matching records out of the total, and your filters are saved in the URL for easy sharing.
  • πŸ’Έ Updated Billing Logic: We've refined our billing logic to be more aligned with active usage. We now only count connections as billable if they are in an active, syncing state. Connections that are incomplete, pending setup, or have invalid credentials are no longer included in usage counts.

πŸš€ What else we've shipped

  • πŸ”„ Connection Flow Reliability: The Employee Filtering step in the Connection Flow is now more robust. If the underlying filter data is missing (e.g., when filtering is enabled after a connection is established), it will automatically trigger a sync to generate it, preventing the setup from getting stuck.
  • πŸ› Dashboard Fix: Fixed a bug in the Data Explorer's Absences calendar that caused it to crash when viewing employees with open-ended absences (e.g., long-term leave).
  • πŸ“₯ Larger Webhook Payloads: We've increased the request body size limit for incoming webhooks, preventing errors for legitimate large payloads like emails.

  • πŸš€ Expanded UKG Ready Capabilities: You can now reject applications, sync rejection reasons, and retrieve job screening questions through our UKG Ready integration.
  • πŸš€ Custom Fields for Application Stages: We've extended the Application Stage model to support custom fields. This is particularly useful for integrations like iCIMS, where you can now map stage visibility and other custom metadata.

  • ⚑ JazzHR: Improved the performance and reliability of syncing screening question answers and added more robust retries for transient API errors.
  • πŸ› SAP SuccessFactors: Fixed an issue where screening answers on an application could not be linked back to their corresponding questions. A new setting is also available to treat jobs with only internal postings as OPEN.
  • πŸ› Recruiterflow: The create-candidate action now correctly sets the application stage when provided.
  • πŸ› API Behavior: The updated_after filter for GET /ats/v1/jobs now correctly includes jobs where only a linked screening question has changed.
  • πŸ“› Recruitee: Renamed to Tellent Recruitee to reflect their recent rebranding.
  • πŸ› οΈ We also shipped fixes and improvements for Workday, Loxo, Fountain, Kula, P&I Loga, Manatal, Coveto, Onlyfy, and UKG Pro.

  • πŸ–οΈ Self-Serve Sandbox Requests: You can now request sandbox access directly from the Tools page in your Kombo Dashboard. This new self-serve option streamlines the process for getting access to test environments.
