How to Set up and Use the Pinpoint Integration

Connect your Bizimply account to Pinpoint. Deliver employee information from Pinpoint directly into your account

Updated over a week ago

Pinpoint in an Applicant Tracking System or ATS which is used for hiring employees. Pinpoint brings every part of the hiring process—and every stakeholder—into one place, so you can move faster, stay in control, and make smarter decisions.

You will need admin access to Bizimply to set up this integration

Setting up the Pinpoint Integration

  1. Start in your Pinpoint account

  2. To enable the integration, first visit the Integrations Marketplace in Pinpoint

3. Find the Bizimply integration, and add it.

4. Then, from the My Apps section, select the integration. It will display the Authorize button, which you'll need to click to initiate the process of authorizing the integration.

5. You will be redirected to Bizimply to a page where you will have to set permissions for the integration and name the API key that will be created:

6. The API key can have any name, but for clarity, we recommend it be named "Pinpoint."

7. Set permissions to manage "Employee" and "Schedules" by clicking "Yes" next to each option.

8. When all the steps are completed, click Save to create a new API key and send it to Pinpoint.

If everything goes well, Bizimply will show a green notification with the text. The API key status will be Active. Note: the status will change to Connected after the first API call. Both "Connected" and "Active" statuses are valid.

If you don't receive the success notification but instead get any other type of notification with an error, please contact the Integrations team at Pinpoint to check what happened.

9. If everything goes well, go back to Pinpoint and refresh the page with the integration. If the integration has been properly authorized, the Authorize button will no longer be displayed, and you will be able to enable the integration by clicking the Enable button.

Sending Candidates from Pinpoint to Bizimply

  1. Move the candidate you'd like to add to Bizimply into the Hired stage of the job's hiring workflow if they aren’t already there. You can skip this step if preferred.

  2. Once the candidate is in the Hired stage, open their profile and click on the action button (three small dots). From the dropdown, select Send to Bizimply.

  3. Follow the prompts to fill in the necessary fields. Once all required information is completed, click the Send to Bizimply button at the bottom of the form. The candidate’s details will be transferred, and they will now be visible in Bizimply.

Updating Candidates

  1. If the candidate has been exported to Bizimply, you should see the Sent to Bizimply tag.

2. You can just follow the same steps as for the create action above.

NB: The update action doesn't support updating the pay record.

3. Follow the prompts to fill in the necessary fields. Once all required information is completed, click the Send to Bizimply button at the bottom of the form. The candidate information will be updated in Bizimply.
