iCIMS proof types and permissions

Written by Hyperproof Support
Updated this week

Hyperproof uses Merge, a third-party API, to retrieve data from applicant tracking apps. Hyperproof uses the Application:Read , Candidate:Read, Job:Read, JobInterviewStage:Read, RejectReason:Read, and Remote:User scopes. If you are interested in learning more about the permissions needed for applicant tracking Hypersyncs that use Merge, refer to the Merge Authentication Guides page in their Help Center.

Note: This Hypersync is not supported in Hyperproof Gov.

When you configure a Hypersync for iCIMS on a control or label, you can automatically collect the following proof types:

iCIMS proof types and fields

Proof type

Fields

Testable

Application Lifecycle Summary

Candidate Name, Candidate Email, Job Title, Current Stage, Source, Updated, Remote ID

Yes

User Account Lifecycle

Name, Email, Updated, Deleted, Remote ID

Yes

This Hypersync supports importing a user list for an access review. See Importing a list of application users with a Hypersync for more information.

Blocking sensitive data

When Hyperproof connects to a Merge Hypersync, we intentionally minimize data exposure and follow least-privilege principles. Sensitive data can't be blocked entirely from within Hyperproof; it can only be blocked at the source. We recommend working with the System Administrator for the app you are accessing to configure a service account specifically for Hyperproof with access only to the data you need the Hypersync to collect.

Requirements

To connect to iCIMS and collect proof, your iCIMS configuration must meet the following requirements.

  • You must be an iCIMS administrator.

  • OAuth requires: Customer ID, Client ID, Client Secret - Contact iCIMS for this information.

  • Basic Auth requires: Customer ID - Contact iCIMS for this information.

Note: Hyperproof connects to many third-party systems that frequently change, including the system interface. Contact your System Administrator or the third-party provider for assistance in meeting the requirements to integrate with Hyperproof and collect the proof you need.

Connection configuration

  • Authentication type: Oauth

    Authentication parameters: Region, Customer ID, Client ID, Client Secret

  • Authentication type: Basic Auth

    Authentication parameters: Customer ID, Username, Password

When you configure a Hypersync for iCIMS for the first time, you must provide the following information:

  • OAuth

    • Region

    • Customer ID

    • Client ID

    • Client Secret

  • Basic Auth

    • Customer ID

    • Username

    • Password

The first time you run this Hypersync, it may take up to 24 hours to load all data.

Note: You only need to connect Hyperproof to the app once, and then you can create as many Hypersyncs as you need.
​

Additionally, you can create multiple Hypersyncs for a single control or label.
