Personio

Personio is a human resources management software that helps businesses streamline HR processes, including recruitment, employee data management, and payroll, in one platform.

ingestr supports Personio as a source.

URI format

The URI format for Personio is as follows:

plaintext
personio://?client_id=<client-id>&client_secret=<client-secret>

URI parameters:

  • client_id: the client ID used for authentication with the Personio API
  • client_secret: the client secret used for authentication with the Personio API

Setting up a Personio Integration

To grab personio credentials, please follow the guide here.

Once you complete the guide, you should have a client ID and client secret. Let's say your client_id is id_123 and your client_secret is secret_123, here's a sample command that will copy the data from Personio into a DuckDB database:

bash
ingestr ingest --source-uri 'personio://?client_id=id_123&client_secret=secret_123' \
 --source-table 'employees' \
 --dest-uri duckdb:///personio.duckdb \
 --dest-table 'dest.employees'
personio_img

Personio source allows ingesting the following resources into separate tables:

  • employees : Retrieves company employees details
  • absences : Retrieves absence periods for absences tracked in days
  • absence_types : Retrieves list of various types of employee absences
  • attendances : Retrieves attendance records for each employee
  • projects : Retrieves a list of all company projects
  • document_categories : Retrieves all document categories of the company
  • employees_absences_balance : Retrieves the absence balance for a specific employee
  • custom_reports_list : Retrieves metadata about existing custom reports in your Personio account, such as report name, report type, report date / timeframe.

Use these as --source-table parameter in the ingestr ingest command.\

WARNING

Personio does not support incremental loading for many endpoints, which means ingestr will load endpoints incrementally if they support it, and do a full-refresh if not.
