Workable Integration

Written by Efrat Barak Zadok

Integrating with Workable allows you to remove all the manual steps of importing your new hire into Shapes and removes the risk of human error.

All Super Admins can integrate in a few simple steps.

  1. Enter Shapes' account settings -> Integrations -> Workable

    Shapes account settings Integrations page with Workable option
  2. Click connect and Open the field for Workable's API key

    Workable API key field in Shapes integration settings
  3. Enter Workable -> Settings -> Integrations -> Apps -> Generate API Token

    Workable Settings menu showing Integrations and Apps
    Workable Apps page with Generate API Token button
  4. Set up the API scope:

    • Call the API "Shapes"

    • Choose the expiration date (2 years - recommended)

    • Allow Shapes to sync "r_account", "r-candidates", "r-jobs"

    Click "Generate Token"

    Workable API scope configuration screen
    Generate Token button in Workable API settings
  5. Copy and Paste the API Access Token from Workable to Shapes and click "Connect"

    Pasting the Workable API access token into Shapes and clicking Connect

From now on, any employee that is hired in Workable will automatically be added to Shapes. Please note that employees will not be invited to Shapes automatically (guide to invite users can be found here.)
