Yes, if you need to integrate with multiple HR systems and have a valid Kombo API key. The SDK is actively maintained, has low install friction, and offers type safety via pydantic. However, verify the unclear license status before committing to production, and note that it is still in beta—review the changelog for any breaking changes in minor updates.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10 or later; requires a valid Kombo API key to authenticate.
- Low install friction with a pure Python wheel.

What it is and what it does
Kombo is an official Python SDK that abstracts access to the Kombo Unified API, a platform for connecting to multiple HR and recruitment systems (HRIS, ATS, assessment, payroll) through a single interface. It uses httpx and httpcore for HTTP communication, pydantic for type validation, and jsonpath-python for response parsing, providing type-safe method calls and automatic request/response handling.
The SDK is designed for developers integrating with customer HR systems without building direct connectors to each platform. It handles authentication via API key, supports region selection (EU or US), includes built-in retry logic, and exposes resources like Assessment, ATS, and HRIS with methods for reading and writing employee, candidate, and job data. The package is currently in beta but declares the core API stable, with a 3-month grace period after Python EOL before dropping support.
Use it for
- Fetch employee records from a customer's HRIS system via a single integration ID without learning multiple vendor APIs.
- Build a recruitment workflow tool that reads applications and candidates from ATS systems and moves them between pipeline stages.
- Sync assessment packages and order results across multiple customer assessment platforms through a unified interface.
- Automate payroll data retrieval and updates across different payroll systems for multi-tenant HR software.
- Create a data migration or reporting tool that pulls employee and candidate data from multiple HR vendors in parallel.
