Official TypeScript & Python SDKs for the Kombo API 🚀

We're excited to share that Kombo now provides official server-side SDKs for TypeScript/JavaScript and Python! 🎉

Why use our SDKs?

Our official SDKs are the recommended way to implement Kombo and offer several key advantages:

  • ✨ Ergonomic and type-safe API interactions
  • 🔄 Always up to date with the latest Kombo API changes
  • 💡 Auto-completion and detailed types for inputs and outputs
  • 🛡️ Avoid common pitfalls with built-in best practices

Get Started

TypeScript/JavaScript

npm install @kombo-api/sdk

📦 npm | 💻 GitHub

Python

pip install kombo

📦 PyPI | 💻 GitHub

Example Usage

import { Kombo } from '@kombo-api/sdk'

const kombo = new Kombo({
  api_key: process.env.KOMBO_API_KEY,
  integration_id: 'workday:HWUTwvyx2wLoSUHphiWVrp28',
})

const result = await kombo.hris.getEmployees()

Migrating from Custom Code?

If you're currently using custom code or self-built solutions to interact with Kombo, now is a great time to migrate! Our SDKs will save you time and reduce maintenance overhead. We've created an LLM-friendly migration prompt to help automate the process. Check out our documentation for details.

More server-side SDKs are planned. Have a specific tech stack in mind? Please reach out!
