• User Types: Select the user types who will have visibility of this tab.

Click the Save button.

StackOne Configuration

1

Navigate to the ATS category

Navigate to the ATS category on the Integrations page and enable Bullhorn.

2

Complete the configuration form

Fill out the necessary fields in the Bullhorn - Configuration model:

• Authentication Type: Select OAuth2 - Assessments/Background Checks to utilise the assessments/background checks integrations.
• Partner Category: Bullhorn does not specify different categories for integrations. It is up to you to determine which type of integration feature you want to offer your users within the Bullhorn Custom Tab. If your custom tab supports background check workflows, please select Background Checks.
• Package’s List Endpoint URL: Implement and provide an endpoint to StackOne, which StackOne will use to retrieve the list of packages when the recruiter wants to send a test to a candidate. Implement the following POST endpoint:
  Copy

  Ask AI

  curl --location 'https://your-domain.com/<route-to-the-post-endpoint>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-stackone-signature: string' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic <base64encoded-bullhorn-api-key>' \
  --data '{
    "account_id": "456551489512493413",
    "provider": "bullhorn_ats"
  }'
  

  The expected response of the POST endpoint (list of packages). Refer to:
  • List Assessments Packages
  • List Background Check Packages
  Enter the endpoint into the designated field:
  Copy

  Ask AI

  https://your-domain.com/<route-to-the-post-endpoint>
  

• Package ID: If you do not have the Package’s List Endpoint URL, you can add a static package ID that will be visible to the recruiter when they want to send a test to the candidate.
  How is the Package's List Endpoint URL different from a Static Package ID?

  The Package's List Endpoint URL allows StackOne to fetch a list of available packages from your system, while the Static Package ID is fixed and available for users to select on the provider's side.

  When you have a Package's List Endpoint URL
  A list of packages will be available to select in Bullhorn.

  

  
  When you have a Static Package ID
  A static package ID will be available to select in Bullhorn.

  
  At least one field is necessary for making packages available in the Provider's UI. Preference will be given to the Package's List Endpoint URL, even if both fields are configured.
  
  Click on the Confirm or Save Changes button to enable OAuth APIs, which allows users to link their accounts via the StackOne Connector Hub.
