  • Step 1: Click on the setting button in one of your open positions on your homepage

Click here
  • Step 2: Click on Connect ATS

Click here
  • Step 3: Click here to view more ATS integrations

Click 'Continue with'
  • Step 4: Click on the ATS you are using (in this case Oracle Taleo)

Click 'Oracle Taleo'
  • Step 5: Confirm you are an Admin

Click 'I am an admin'
  • Step 6: Review your Data Permissions

Click 'Next'
  • Step 7: Enter your Taleo Server URL

Click 'URL'

Request that the Taleo team enable the Web Service Framework

This step is only required if you do not already have "Web Service" permissions. By default, the web service framework is disabled.

The Taleo Production Team will activate the Web Service Framework for you upon a proof of purchase. Contact your customer representative for further details about pricing and activation.

Step 2: Generate or obtain the Web Services WSDL files

To access the Taleo API, you need the Web Service Description Language (WSDL) files corresponding to the Web Services.

A WSDL file defines a web service that is available to you. Your development platform uses this WSDL to generate an API to access the Web service it defines. Each Web service available through the Taleo product is defined by a dedicated WSDL file.

You can either obtain the WSDL files from your Customer Representative or you can generate them yourself if you have access to the WSDL download page in the Taleo product user interface.

Step 3: Create and approve a new User in Oracle Taleo

Create a new Taleo User Account activated with Web Service permissions

Step 4: Define User Type, User Group, and Coverage Area

Define your user accounts in SmartOrg using the following navigation:

Configuration > [SmartOrg] Administration > [Users] User Accounts

When creating a user account, system administrators define several elements:

  • User Type (Recruiting)

  • User Group (Recruiting Center)

  • Coverage Area (Requisitions and Search)

  • General Preferences (can be modified by users in Taleo Recruiting, in the My Setup feature, to fit personal preferences)

Step 5: Configure access to endpoint fields
