Setting up your Recruit CRM integration in SourceWhale is very simple, all you need to do is follow the steps below.


Step 1

Go to your profile in the bottom left-hand corner of SourceWhale and click on it > Select Integrations from the dropdown box > search for Recruit CRM in the search bar.

Step 2

To enable the Recruit CRM integration, ask your Recruit CRM account manager for an API key. The account manager can obtain one here.

Step 3

Click activate.

When the integration is active, it will read Connected in green on the right-hand side of the Recruit CRM logo.


Sync Features

On the integrations page, you will be able to set default settings for yourself and your team.

Sync Settings
