Submit a new application via Quicklink

Apply with one click.

Quicklink is Embloy's SDK to allow visitors of your page to submit new applications with just one click.

note

If you want to integrate Quicklink into your site, you need to be subscribed to at least Embloy-Smart to be able to use this feature.

info

You can find example implementations at Embloy Examples.

  1. Create a client token and save it in your backend's environment file.

  2. Create a new endpoint in your backend that loads the client token and creates a new Embloy application session using the application portal endpoint from our SDK (see this endpoint). The only required field is job_slug that is our way to identify a job that may not be known to us yet. In the event of a successful application, a new blank job will be created (in case it doesn't already exist) for your Embloy account. You can then edit this job in the Embloy dashboard.

    tip

    If you have a 3rd-party ATS running in the background, we recommend setting job_slug to the ID of your 3rd-party job posting and mode to the name of your 3rd-party ATS system (e.g., ashby, lever or softgarden). More on that here.

    warning

    IMPORTANT: Make sure to use unique job_slugs for each different job posting you make, as they are used to identify a client's job. Of course, you can use the same job_slug multiple times on different pages as long as you want all applications submitted to these pages to be linked to the job identified by the job_slug.

    Optionally, you can customize certain fields in the request_token, such as the mode, success_url, cancel_url and many more features that can be used to customize your job and application process for the user's application portal. See also the token customization documentation. If none of these fields are set, it will redirect to the referrer URL in the case of a successful or canceled application and use job as the default request mode (meaning that the job will only be managed by Embloy and not be synchronized with other ATS systems).

tip

You can use Quicklink without having to manually create a job, just by setting all relevant information when creating a request_token. Alternatively, you can, of course, create a custom job and then use the job's job_slug for the request_token.

  1. Redirect to Embloy using the link provided in the url field of the response to the request. The link should look something like: https://embloy.com/sdk/apply?request_token=<request-token>.

  2. The user applies using Embloy.

  3. When the application has been submitted, the user gets redirected back to your site (or the success_url/cancel_url set by you).

  1. Click on "Apply with Embloy".

  2. Get redirected to embloy.com (If already signed into the account, the user will be shown the appliction widget; otherwise, he will have to sign in / register first).

  3. Submit application.

  4. Get redirected to the original page.

  5. Keep track of the application on the application dashboard.
