How to Build Org Charts and Employee Directories Across HRIS Platforms with
Blog post from Unified.to
Unified.to’s HR & Directory API enables products to create org charts, employee directories, and team-selection tools across varied HRIS and identity platforms by exposing employees, manager relationships, group memberships, locations, and company data in a common schema. Reporting hierarchies should be constructed from employee manager_id fields, while departments, teams, locations, and legal entities remain separate organizational dimensions that can be combined into tailored directory views. The guide recommends fetching employee, group, and location records incrementally where possible, filtering inactive staff, accounting for missing managers, multiple memberships, incomplete hierarchies, and circular reporting relationships, and avoiding assumptions about vendor-specific group types or location structures. Directories can be kept current through change events, virtual webhooks, incremental updated_gte reads, or database synchronization, while Unified.to leaves data interpretation, hierarchy rules, and handling of incomplete source information to the product implementing the experience.
