At the end of September, Indeed will be switching its API’s authentication method from Basic Auth to OAuth 2.0, a more modern and secure authentication method. Following this change, Daxtra has updated the Indeed integration to make use of the new authentication method. This update will require customers who have a paid Indeed search account to generate their own Authorization Token and add it into the job board login section inside of Daxtra Search; or if you are a Job Board Web Services customer, you will need to include the API Key when executing a search call with Indeed. You will need to complete the steps below on or after September 28, 2021, to continue to search over Indeed.
