🤝 Thrive | Export

SeekOut integrates with Thrive, allowing you to export candidate data from SeekOut and turn it into Thrive candidate profiles complete with contact information and work/education history. Candidate data can be sent to Thrive as prospects, or they can be attached to an existing job.

This article covers how to set up your integration, as well as how to export candidate info from SeekOut to Thrive.

Setting up the Thrive Integration

Before You Begin

You'll need to generate an API Token for SeekOut in your Thrive account. Login to Thrive and click your User Settings icon at the top right, then select Integrations.

Choose SeekOut from the list of integrations on the left, then click Regenerate Thrive API Token to create your token. Click Copy to copy your token to your clipboard.

Save your API Token to a safe place; you'll enter it into SeekOut later.

Accessing Integrations

Click your name at the bottom left of the SeekOut dashboard, then select Integrations.

Don't see the Integrations option in your menu? Contact your Customer Success Manager or support@seekout.com and ask to enable ATS integrations for your org.

Connecting to Thrive

On the Integrations page, click + Add a Connection. Locate Thrive from the list of integrations and click the Connect button.

Note: If you have set up an integration previously, click the + next to the list of integrations at the top of the page to open the Add a Connection pop-up.

On the Capabilities tab, check the box next to Export. Click Confirm Choices to continue to the next step.

On the Credentials tab, enter your API Token from Thrive in the Auth Token field and select Production in the Environment dropdown..

Click Submit to save your credentials. SeekOut will automatically attempt to verify your connection. When successful, Thrive will appear at the top of your Integrations page with a green check mark.

Removing the Integration

On the Integrations page, click the arrow next to a connected integration to Edit or Remove the integration from your SeekOut account.

Testing Your Integration

SeekOut automatically tests your integration after the first time you set it up. Select a job from the dropdown list and click Send Test Candidate to export a test candidate to your ATS.

When successful, Thrive will appear under the section My Organization's Integrations with the label "Connected." Test your integration again at any time by returning to the integrations page, clicking the three-dot menu next to the name, selecting Edit, and then click Test.

What do I do if my test was unsuccessful?

Confirm that your info is entered correctly in the integration pop-up. If you make any changes to your info, click Save first and then click Test to try again with your updated credentials.

If you've confirmed your connection info is correct and you're still unable to connect, reach out to your Customer Success Manager or email support@seekout.com for assistance.

Exporting from SeekOut to Thrive

Recommended: Export from a project

To export all candidates in a project to Thrive, go to your SeekOut project, click the Export icon and choose Export All to Thrive.

Contact information such as email addresses and phone numbers will only appear in your export if you click Get Email for All and Get Phone for All before exporting.

Alternatively, you can export select candidates from SeekOut by clicking the box next to their profile, clicking Export and then selecting Export X to Thrive. With both methods, clicking Export to Thrive will cause a pop-up window will appear.

You can select a job from the dropdown menu or export the candidates as prospects. If you don't have email addresses for all candidates, check the box Generate dummy email addresses for candidates.  Click the Export button to export candidates to Thrive. When successful, you will see a confirmation pop-up message that says "Export Complete."

Additional Notes

Duplicate Profiles

By default, SeekOut will not transmit profiles that have already been successfully exported. Candidates that have been exported will display a confirmation icon and the name of your ATS in their SeekOut profile.

Check the box Include previously exported candidate(s) if you're exporting the same candidates to your ATS again.

NOTE: Thrive does support duplicate check functionality. If you export the same candidate twice, their record will be updated in your ATS.

What do dummy emails look like?

• no-email--352233856@seekout.example.com
