Enabling the Pre-Onboarding Iframe

To utilize the pre-onboarding iframe, follow these steps:

Enabling this setting will display the 3rd Party Pre-Onboarding section in Forms Manager and allow 3rd party iframes to be displayed in the candidate workflow.

Steps to Create

  1. Navigate to Configuration > Forms.
  2. Under the Online App select the + button next to 3rd Party. This will create a new form instance.
  3. Name the form.
    • The recommended naming convention is: {partner_name} {Form Name}
  4. Include Form instructions. This is optional.
  5. Press Create Form and then YES to confirm.

Steps to Configure

After the form is created, the properties of the iframe that are loaded into the candidate experience can be configured. All the fields on this page are automatically saved.

The following fields can be configured:

  • Iframe URL: The full source URL to be loaded into the iframe (e.g. https://yourdomain.com/yourapp?ote_applicant=:applicant_id)
  • Dynamic Params: Allows applicant characteristics to be injected into a URL in ordter to track the response. Any applicant field can be added as a dynamic parameter. (The only exception is SSN)
    • Example: Pass in the applicant_id into the URL
  • Must complete to continue: With this setting, when the iframe is loaded, the next button is in a waiting state and cannot be clicked until it is completed. (Note: If the button does not load, try scrolling on the form to see if there is more information to be added.) The page will ask another service on the web if the task is done by the user. The Partner configures a polling resource for this functionality. It returns a 1 or 0. When it returns a 1 it unlocks the Next button by indicating the task is complete.

    To use the Must complete to continue setting, Dynamic Parameters have to be used.

Require Confirmation Code & System Adapter should not be used.

After the form is enabled and validated it is ready to be sent in workflows to the candidates.
