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.
- Example: Benefits enrollment: Talent Platform can't see the content within the iframe or share context. Therefore, it requests confirmation from the benefits provider to verify if the task is complete.
- If Must complete to continue is enabled:
- Polling The automated check to see if any changes have been made in the ATS. If changes have been made, data is retrieved and updated in Onboarding Interval: The interval (in seconds) the front end will check for the completion status of a loaded task.
