The Autohive JobAdder integration connects your JobAdder recruitment account to Autohive. It covers the core hiring flow plus client relationship data and reporting.

  • Create candidates. Add new candidates with contact, employment, and skill details.
  • Add candidates to jobs. Link existing candidates to a job to create applications.

Key features

Pagination and date filters

List actions return up to 100 results by default. Set a higher limit, up to 1,000, to get more in one call. Set the limit to 0 to get only the total count.

Date filters use the ISO 8601 format. Add a > or < before a date to match records after or before it. For example, >2026-01-01T00:00:00Z matches records updated after 1 January.

Consistent response shape

List actions return the matching records, a total count, and JobAdder’s pagination links. Get and create actions return the full JobAdder record, including any custom fields.

Full-text notes and activity reporting

Notes and activities carry their full text, type, dates, and the consultant who created them. The list_all_contact_activities action builds one report across up to 100 contacts, so you can summarize client engagement without looping through contacts one at a time.

Least-privilege access

The integration only asks for the access it needs. It can read users, jobs, candidates, contacts, companies, notes, activities, attachments, applications, placements, timesheets, and availability. It can create candidates and applications, upload and update candidate documents, and stay connected using offline access.
