Indeed
The Indeed integration connects Nextal’s job publishing workflow to Indeed’s job board. When activated, jobs you publish from the ATS are automatically syndicated to Indeed under your company’s account, and performance data flows back so you can track results.
What it does
- Automatically pushes published jobs to Indeed using your company’s API credentials.
- Supports multilingual job postings in two modes: Merged (a single posting combines language versions) or Split by language (a separate posting per language).
- Lets you track Indeed performance within your recruiting analytics.
Prerequisites
- An Indeed employer account.
- Your Indeed Company Name (as registered with Indeed).
- Your Indeed Key (available in your Indeed employer dashboard).
How to activate
- Go to Administration → Integrations and find the Indeed card.
- Click Edit to open the configuration panel.
- Check Enable Indeed Integration.
- Enter your Indeed Company Name in the field provided.
- Enter your Indeed Key (API key).
- Choose the Job posting mode that matches how you handle multilingual jobs:
- Merged posting mode — one posting per job, combining all language versions.
- Split by language posting mode — one posting per language per job.
- Click Save.
Language by location
Below the Job posting mode, you can define Language by location rules that determine which language(s) each job is posted in on Indeed, based on the job’s province or country. This section appears only when the Indeed integration is enabled.
These rules work independently of the posting mode: they decide which languages are allowed for a job, while the posting mode (Merged or Split by language) decides how those languages are emitted.
Key behaviors to keep in mind:
- Rules are evaluated top to bottom, and the first rule that matches wins. Order matters; reorder rules with the up/down arrows.
- A job that matches no rule is posted in all supported languages (the default behavior, the same as today).
- A job with no content in an allowed language is not posted to Indeed. For example, if a rule only allows French but the job has only an English description, it is not sent.
- Recognized locations are Canada (provinces and territories) and the USA. An unrecognized province or country matches no rule that requires it — the job then falls back to the default behavior.

Settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Enable Indeed Integration | Master toggle. When off, no jobs are sent to Indeed. |
| Indeed Company Name | The company name as registered in your Indeed employer account. |
| Indeed Key | Your Indeed API key used to authenticate job submissions. |
| Job posting mode | Controls how multilingual jobs are sent: Merged (one listing per job) or Split by language (one listing per language). |
| Language by location | An ordered list of rules that restricts the posting languages based on the job’s province or country. First match wins; no match → all supported languages. See Indeed — Language by location. |
Tips
- Verify your company name matches exactly. A mismatch between the name entered here and your Indeed account can cause postings to fail silently.
- Use “Merged” if your jobs are already bilingual. If your job descriptions include both English and French in a single record, merged mode avoids duplicate listings on Indeed.
- Use “Split by language” for separate-language markets. If your team creates distinct English and French versions of each posting, split mode gives each its own Indeed listing — improving keyword targeting per language.
- Deactivating does not remove existing Indeed listings. Jobs already posted will remain on Indeed. Contact Indeed support if you need to remove them urgently.
