The Authentication web service allows you to log in with a user’s email address and password. The user may be a member of your account or your customer’s account. When a customers searches for resumes via the medium of an ATS (Application Tracking System), the caller is the ATS and the user belongs to customer’s account. A session token will be returned after a successful login and is required to verify authorization when calling other services. This session token expires after eight hours. If the user is a member of multiple accounts, the account must be specified in the login call, or the login will fail.

Security Tip: Use a Administrator type user account that has permission to access all jobs in the account.
