Configure Textkernel Searcher Authentication Custom Metadata Type

All Textkernel External Search setup procedures are available here.

This step requires details for the External Searchers supported in Textkernel that you want to activate. See Supported External Job Boards for a full list of supported job boards and configuration requirements for each. Some are configured out of the box but they will still need to be activated.

For each job board you want to enable, repeat the following steps:

  1. Go to Setup > Custom Metadata Types > Textkernel searcher authentication.
  2. Fill in the following fields:
Field Name Description

Enter value from the Searcher name column in the Textkernel Searcher Authentication Configuration table.

Credential Keys

Enter comma separated Credential Keys required for authorization. For example: cvlibrary_registered_email, cvlibrary_username, cvlibrary_passwordvalue. See the Credential Keys column in the Textkernel Searcher Authentication Configuration table.

Credentials

This is where the actual credentials for the job board are entered. The definition is entered in JSON key/value pairs such as:

}

The value can be a (custom) field on the current User or a literal value. Keys come from the external job board and should be provided by Textkernel.
