Invitation Interface
The Invitation Interface feature allows users to effortlessly create and launch multiple invitations at a time through two convenient methods: bulk uploading candidate information via a "file" or a "provider" option, or manually entering invitation details directly into the designated grids on the page. This functionality allows users to integrate seamlessly with third-party providers by extracting candidate information from their systems or importing data from a file to create and launch multiple invitations.
For scenarios involving a large volume of candidate data, it is recommended to use this method. Users can input the data into a spreadsheet and upload the file into the system. The file must be in .csv format and follow the field order specified on the Invitation Interface page. If the field order differs, a downloadable spreadsheet template with the correct field sequence is provided to help avoid errors due to mismatched fields during file uploads.
