Getting started
1) The basics
First of all, have a look at the General Information section to find out what to expect from Web Careers API responses.
2) Register your application
In order to communicate with the Web Careers API you have to add a front-end client to your front-end client in taloom. Here you can find a detailed description to create one.
3) Establish a connection
Using the API URL, the front-end client id and the front-end client secret (see step 2) you are now able to establish a connection between your application and the Careers Website API. The first thing you have to do is to request a Client Access Token.
4) Perform actions
Once you’ve obtained the Client Access Token (see step 3) you can execute actions which do not require a signed-in user (e.g. executing a job search). For a complete list of all possible actions take a look on the left hand side.
5) Let the user sign in
To execute actions based on user data, like apply to a job-posting or show the users profile data, you need to obtain a second token: the User Access Token. This token can either be obtained directly by letting the user sign in via user name and password or using a third party sign in provider.
