Manatal Integration

Skima AI helps recruitment teams automate workflows, prioritize candidates using AI scoring, and streamline hiring operations. With the Manatal integration, you can sync candidates, jobs, and applications from Manatal into Skima AI, automate repetitive tasks, and manage pipelines from one place.

Setting Up the Integration ​

This section guides you through connecting your Manatal account with Skima AI. Once connected, Skima AI will begin syncing your Manatal candidates, jobs, and applications so you can use workflow automation within Skima AI.

Step 1: Generate your Manatal API Token ​

You need a Manatal Open API token before starting setup in Skima AI. You must be an admin user in Manatal to complete this step, as API tokens are only visible to admins.

Info

The Open API is enabled by default on Manatal's Enterprise Plus plan. If the Open API is not enabled on your account, click 'Contact our support' on the Open API settings page to request access before proceeding.

  1. Log in to your Manatal account.

  2. Click 'Administration' in the left sidebar.

  3. Open the 'Features' category and select 'Open API'.

  1. Click 'Generate new token'.

  2. Click the copy icon next to the token and store it securely before moving to Step 2.

Warning

If a payment is missed or your Manatal plan is downgraded, existing tokens are deactivated. You will need to generate a new token and reconnect Skima AI.

Step 2: Connect Manatal in Skima AI ​

  1. Log in to your Skima AI dashboard.

  2. Navigate to 'Integrations' from the left sidebar.

Using the Integration ​

Once your Manatal account is connected, Skima AI begins ingesting candidates, jobs, and applications. This enables Skima AI to evaluate candidate and job fit, generate AI match scores, and support workflow automation. The initial sync may take some time depending on the volume of data in your Manatal account.

Application Stage Sync ​

Skima AI retrieves updated application stages during scheduled sync cycles. This keeps your pipeline, candidate details, and application updates aligned with Manatal without requiring manual refresh.

During each sync, Skima AI updates application stages pulled from Manatal, refreshes candidate and job data, syncs applications and attachments, and updates AI scores based on newly synced information.

Info

Supported sync intervals are 6 hours, 12 hours, and 24 hours. To configure your preferred frequency, contact [email protected]

Jobs ​

Manatal jobs are imported into Skima AI to support candidate and job matching and reporting.

Candidates and Applications ​

Skima AI pushes AI scoring and analysis back into Manatal as a note, so recruiters can review screening results without leaving Manatal. Each note is added by the 'skima' user and contains:

  • Score: the AI match score for the candidate against the job.
  • Pros: the strengths that support the match.
  • Cons: the gaps or concerns against the job requirements.

Every note ends with "Generated by Skima AI" so it is easy to tell apart from notes written by your team.

To view a candidate's score, open the job in Manatal, go to the notes section, and select the candidate from the list on the left.

Disabling the Integration ​

If you need to remove the integration entirely, you can deactivate the connection from within Skima AI.

Warning

Deactivating the integration fully removes Skima AI's access to your Manatal account. Previously synced data remains available in Skima AI, but new data will no longer sync and Skima AI will stop sending updates back to Manatal. To reconnect, repeat the setup steps and click 'Click here to reintegrate' when prompted.

In Skima AI ​

  1. Navigate to 'Integrations' from the left sidebar.
  2. Find Manatal under 'My Integrations'.
  3. Click 'Pause' to pause the sync.
