Our API key is a required and unique identifier you'll need to authenticate requests associated with your project. Use this simple guide to get your API key fast.

Prerequisites

• An account at ATS Anywhere
• requirement
• requirement

Step 1: Navigate to the API Access Page

From your ATS dashboard, access the main menu (in the upper right) and then select Account Details. Scroll down to the Integrate section and select API Access.

Step 2: Generate a New API Key

The API Access screen will help you generate a new API key for your site, as shown below.

Step 3: Create a collection in Postman to save your credentials.

Be sure to store your key and password in a safe place. In this example, we will save our credentials to new collection in Postman.

After opening Postman, click the button circled below in green to create a new collection.

A new window should pop up asking you to name your collection. Use a name you feel is appropriate.

Now navigate over to the Authorization tab. You should choose Basic Auth under the dropdown labeled Type. Add your API Key under Username, and your API Password under Password. Your Authorization Tab should look like so:

Step 5: Verify your API Key is working with a simple request

Let's make a simple request that retrieves all jobs under your account.

Create a new request under your collection that contains your API credentials. Name it whatever you like, the example below simply calls it Get Jobs.

Open up your browser and navigate to your dashboard or settings. Copy the base URL of your account. This is the web address without the path. In the this tutorial, we will use https://sampleco.applicant-tracking.com as an example.

Paste the base URL into the request address. Add /api/v1/jobs to specify requesting the jobs via API.

Now you're all good to make a request! You should see a response returned in the form of JSON.
