MIP AI Integration

Connect MIP to BeforeQuery for grounded AI answers and agent actions across HRIS / HCM / WFM.

What is it?

About MIP

MIP is one of the HRIS / HCM / WFM platforms BeforeQuery connects to. Once linked, the platform's data becomes a first-class source for grounded AI answers and a target for policy-gated agent actions — the same identity, approval, and audit-log guarantees every other integration ships with.

Setup

How to connect MIP

  1. Step 01

    In the BeforeQuery dashboard, go to Integrations → HRIS / HCM / WFM and select MIP.

  2. Step 02

    Sign in to MIP with an account that has permissions to grant BeforeQuery the HRIS / HCM / WFM scopes required.

  3. Step 03

    Confirm the connection. MIP is now available as a source and action target for every playbook in your workspace.

How BeforeQuery uses MIP

What the agent does with your MIP connection

  • 01

    Read employee, role, manager, and org data from MIP to power identity-aware answers everywhere.

  • 02

    Trigger onboarding + offboarding playbooks on MIP lifecycle events — start dates, role changes, terminations.

  • 03

    Answer HR policy questions ("how much PTO do I have?") grounded in MIP records + policy documents.

  • 04

    Provision + deprovision access downstream from MIP — same event fires 40 downstream write actions in the right order.

Use cases

What teams actually do with the MIP integration

New-hire onboarding cascade

MIP fires a hire event → BeforeQuery reads the role, team, and manager → provisions Okta account + Slack channels + GitHub team + laptop order + calendar meetings + welcome messages, all in the right order with the right approvals, in under 90 seconds.

Offboarding orchestration

MIP termination event → BeforeQuery revokes SSO, transfers file ownership, closes tickets, cancels calendar invites, and archives the employee's Slack DMs — the entire deprovisioning cascade tracked to zero orphaned access in under 15 minutes.

HR policy Q&A grounded in MIP + PTO records

Employees ask "how many days of PTO do I have left?" or "what's my parental leave policy?" — BeforeQuery pulls their record from MIP, matches against your policy documents, and answers with the specific numbers for that employee.

Answer questions grounded in MIP

Employees and customers ask MIP-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact MIP record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into HRIS / HCM / WFM to check" round-trips.

MIP — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to MIP.

The minimum set for the playbooks you enable. For onboarding: users, roles, manager relationships, start dates. For PTO Q&A: leave balances + policy. You approve the scope at install; nothing else is pulled. Sensitive fields (comp, PHI) can be excluded even from approved scopes.
Role-change events from MIP propagate through the Context Graph on next sync (typically < 5 min). Group memberships, approval chains, and access policies re-evaluate automatically. Any playbook that depended on the old role uses the new one on its next run — no manual re-configuration.
Standard OAuth 2.0 where MIP supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your MIP data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every MIP integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific MIP objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch MIP for real.
