You can create a synced record on an API as well. And employee data is typically not updated a lot. For me this feels like a perfect case for a synced record.

perhaps i misunderstand Data sync but Its more about caching logic and loading speed than about keeping values updated.
I think you refer to this:
"To keep the synced data up-to-date, you could schedule a daily sync for each night to sync changes made to the database by other systems. Any data changes made from Appian will be immediately synced with no additional configuration needed. Now, your application is not only more performant, it contains consistently fresh data."

But he is using an api here and not DB content. So it shouldnt be suitable. I am open to learn here :)

my first idea was a constant and updating this constant once a day.

I think that would be a good case for a synced record.
