Abila Setup
Need Help on this Topic? Email Support
If you are interested in setting up or changing an integration, please reach out to our support team (productsupport@visibilitysoftware.com) for assistance.
This integration is to the HR Module of Abila via the Employee Web Services. Both modules must be in place before the integration can be established.
This link connects Abila and Cyber Recruiter via a web service. Setup is necessary on the server which hosts Abila prior to enabling the connection inside Cyber Recruiter. Part of this setup includes knowing the URL to the Abila system and to the web service used to pass data to the database.
This integration works with the On Premise and Cloud version of Abila. There are slightly different setup options (noted below) depending on which version of Abila is being used.
The following information is written to be understood by someone with web integration experience.

If the goal is to update the value being sent to Abila, click the pencil icon to edit the value. Click the check-mark to save the updated value. Note that ONLY the Abila value can be updated.
If the Abila value is blank, the system will use the code established in Cyber Recruiter.
