Getting Started

Welcome to the Talent Acquisition section. This page will guide you through the steps necessary to begin using our APIs effectively.

Our APIS can be used to export and retrieve data such as job ads or job applications for use beyond Cegid HR Talent Acquisition. For each API you will see the suggested use cases.

Prerequisites​

Before you start, please ensure you have the following:

  • A valid API key or an access token
  • The base URL of the target environment (staging, production)

Obtaining Your Access​

Depending on the specific APIs, you may need different type of credentials. Please reach out to our support team or your Cegid HR contact to request the necessary access and begin using our APIs.

Authentication​

1. OAuth2 Authentication​

To secure your requests, you must include your API key and a bearer token.

Endpoint:​

POST /users/login
{
"email": <string>,
"password": <string>
}

Required Headers:​

  • X-DR-API-KEY
  • Authorization

Note: To generate a token, you need a valid user account (login/password).

2. Access Token Authentication​

For some APIs, all you need is an access token to send directly to the endpoint:

GET /endpoint/(accessToken)

With these guidelines, you are now ready to explore and integrate with our Talent Acquisition APIs. If you have any questions or encounter any issues, don’t hesitate to contact our support team.
