The Carerix RMA app depends on the Webhooks app.

This dependency is usually installed automatically during activation. If not, install the Webhooks app before activating the Carerix RMA.

You should see a green checkmark next to the Carerix RMA and the Webhooks apps if both were installed correctly.

Please check out our video tutorial for a full step-by-step guide on how to set up the connection:

Connecting multiple tenants (Advanced Setup)

If you need to connect more than one Carerix tenant to HireData (for example, a production and staging environment), you must use the legacy connection method inside HireData.

This setup is intended for advanced use cases and is not required for single-tenant connections.

Step 1: Navigating to Carerix App

Begin by navigating to the app section within HireData. Here, you'll find the option to integrate with Carerix. This initial step is simple yet fundamental for the integration process.

Step 2: Configuring your Carerix environment

In order to connect your Carerix and HireData environments, you need (a) to activate webhooks (see: step 2.1), and (c) set up a client (see: step 2.2) in order to get a (I) Client ID and (II) Client Secret for your Carerix environment. Please follow the steps below to obtain those:

Step 2.1 Activating webhooks

First, you need to activate webhooks for your Carerix environment. This is done by sending a support ticket to Carerix. Once webhooks are activated, you can proceed to the next step. Before activating webhooks, some scopes that are needed will not be available yet.

Step 2.2 Setting up a Confidential Client

Second, head over to your Carerix environment, navigate to [Maintenance] > [Identity Management] > [Clients], and click on the [New] > [Confidential] link. Then, fill in the following values:

  • Name: HireData

  • Code: urn:hiredata/hiredata

  • Default scopes:

    • urn:cx/cx5Wrapper:data:manage

    • urn:cx/webhooks:data:manage

  • Permissions:

    • Click [Add] and search for Webhooks

    • Configure permissions as follows:

      • create: on

      • delete: owner

      • read: all

      • update: owner

Last but not least, click "Save". Don't forget to save your Client ID and Client Secret - especially the latter - since you'll only be shown these values once for security reasons. If you don't save them, you'll have to redo this step.

Step 3: Creating a New Connection

Click on [+ New Connection] and enter the required Carerix details: your tenant (customer name or sub domain), Client ID, Client Secret, and API Key. If you don't have a Client ID, Client Secret, and/or API Key yet, please get in touch with your account manager at Carerix or contact Carerix' support team.

3.1: Click [+ New Connection] and start connecting your Carerix

Adding New Connection

3.2: Provide your tenant (no capitals), client ID, and client secret to set up a new connection

Enter Tenant, Client ID and Client Secret

Step 4: Carerix Connected

After you've clicked "Connect", you've finished setting up the connection between Carerix and HireData. When it's the first time you've set up this connection, HireData might need a few minutes to sync data from your Carerix database. After that, you're all set to set up your first Carerix automation in HireData.
