Calendar User Management

Bullhorn Automation’s calendar integration feature allows recruiters to efficiently schedule meetings with Candidates and Sales Contacts without the need for third-party tools.

Inviting Users

When Automatically send invites to new Bullhorn users is enabled, then new users are invited to integrate their calendars.

Users can be manually invited to integrate their calendar from the ATS Page.

  1. Navigate to Settings > ATS (Bullhorn/Salesforce/etc.)
  2. Check the box(es) of users to invite.
    • Single-select and Multi-select functionality is supported.
  3. From the Select an Action drop-down click Send Calendar Invites.
  4. Click Yes on the Are you sure? pop up to confirm.

The Calendar Status automatically updates from Not Invited to Invited.

Calendar Statuses

You can check a user’s Calendar Status under the ATS section of the Settings page. The following statuses may be shown for each user:

  • Not Invited: The user has not been invited to use the calendar integration.
  • Pending: The calendar integration invite is in the process of being sent to the user.
  • Invited: A calendar integration invite has been sent to the user.
  • Active: The user has set up their calendar integration.
  • Not Connected: The invited user’s calendar integration is unable to connect. The user will also receive a notification asking them to reconnect their calendar.
    • This status most often occurs when a user has changed their calendar credentials.
