Remote

Connect Remote to Siit to sync your global workforce — full employees, EOR employees, and contractors — and drive onboarding, offboarding, and request automation from Remote's lifecycle events.

What you get

• Unified global directory — Remote employees, EOR workers, and contractors all appear in Siit with the right worker type.

• Lifecycle triggers — Start date, End date, and Birthday flow into Siit as workflow triggers.

• Country and entity context — country, legal entity, and contract type are synced so you can route and approve by location.

• Manager resolution — Remote's manager assignments power auto‑selected approvers.

• Contractor‑aware workflows — differentiate between employees and contractors in every automation.

What syncs from Remote

Category	Fields
Identity	Full name, preferred name, work email, Remote worker ID
Role	Job title, seniority
Org structure	Manager, team, country, legal entity
Employment	Worker type (EOR Employee, Direct Employee, Contractor), contract status
Lifecycle dates	Start date, end date, date of birth

Work email is the canonical identifier.

Before you connect

• A Remote admin to generate an API token.

• Work email populated on every worker record. For EOR employees, this is the corporate email you issue them — not their Remote login.

Connect Remote

1. In Remote, generate an API token for Siit with read access to people, contracts, and organization data.

2. In Siit, go to Settings → Integrations, find Remote in the HRIS section, and click Connect.

3. Paste the API token, then click Authorize.

4. Review the imported people and field mapping (including Worker Type → Employment Type) and click Finish setup.

After the connection

• Confirm your People list matches Remote's active workforce.

• In Settings → People → Fields, set Remote as the source of truth for country, contract type, and legal entity if you're also connected to an IdP.

• Most Remote customers start with offboarding automation driven by contract end date.

Sync frequency

Remote data refreshes automatically every few hours. Trigger an immediate refresh from Settings → Integrations → Remote → Sync now.

Common workflows

Global Day‑1 onboarding. Trigger: Start date. Actions: create IdP account, assign apps by team, ship equipment if Worker Type = Employee, send country‑specific welcome.

Contractor offboarding. Trigger: End date, Condition: Worker Type = Contractor. Actions: revoke app access, notify manager, close Slack access.

Entity‑specific approval. Condition: Requester's entity = "Acme SAS" → Approver = French HR lead.

Troubleshooting

Workers missing. Only active and upcoming contracts sync by default. Confirm contract status and work email in Remote.

Contractor vs employee mis‑labeled. Open Settings → Integrations → Remote → Mapping and check Worker Type → Employment Type.

Manager field empty. In Remote, check the worker has a reporting manager set on their profile.

"Unauthorized" on connect. The API token was revoked. Generate a new one and update Siit.
