OpenApply Setup

To authenticate a OpenApply Connector you will need a Client ID, Client Secret and the name of your OpenApply account.

Client ID & Client Secret

To obtain your Client ID and Client Secret, within your OpenApply account:

  1. Navigate to Settings and open the Public API page for which you would like to add a new application.
  2. You will find your Client ID, Client Secret, and Redirect URI on this page.

Set the Redirect URI to be your Cyclr Partner Console’s Callback URL.

OpenApply Account (name)

Your OpenApply account as displayed in your account URL.

Example: if your account URL is https://demo.openapply.com then your account name is demo.

When installing the OpenApply Connector, the following values are used:

  • Client ID
  • Client Secret
