The Unlocked Components package contains example code and components which can be used in the Salesforce Org (alongside of the main package) to quickly setup a workflow integration between Salesforce and Textkernel for the Search and Match use case. These components are unlocked, open-source, so that their source code can be copied and customized to support other use cases, if desired.

Permission sets🔗

The Textkernel Connector package includes 3 permission sets, which manage access to the integration features. Salesforce users require both a Textkernel package license and one of these permisison sets to use the integration features. or the user will be unable to use the package. Note that you can also assign these permission sets as part of a Salesforce permission set group, if you are using that feature. Below are the permission sets:

  • Textkernel - Admin Access - for the Salesforce administrator. Provides full access the Textkernel App to configure the integration as well as all the end-user recruiter features.
  • Textkernel - Recruiter Access - for a recruiter end-user. This provides access to the end-user features (parsing widget, Textkernel Portal, automatch widgets, and Jobfeed import widget). To use any of these features, the Salesforce user needs this permission set assigned.
  • Textkernel - Manager Access - provides additional access for recruiters to see the Textkernel search usage reports inside Textkernel Portal. These are used by managers of recruiters to understand usage and adoption of the search and match features. This permission set should only be used in combination with Textkernel - Recruiter Access.

The Unlocked Components package includes 1 permission set, which provides full access to its features for all recruiters and admins: Textkernel - Unlocked Components Access
