Ribbon integrates with popular Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to streamline your recruiting workflow.

Supported Systems

Ribbon uses Kombo to connect with a wide range of ATS platforms. Check the integrations page in your Ribbon settings for the full list of supported systems.

Setting Up an Integration

Organization-Level Setup

  1. Go to Settings > Integrations
  2. Select your ATS from the list
  3. Follow the authorization flow to connect your account
  4. Once connected, you’ll see a confirmation status

Per-Interview Configuration

After connecting your ATS, configure each interview flow:
  1. Open the interview flow settings
  2. Go to the Integrations tab
  3. Select:
    • ATS Account - Which connected account to use
    • Job - Link to an existing job posting
    • Stage - Where to move candidates after interview completion

How It Works

Candidate Sync

When a candidate completes a Ribbon interview:
  1. Ribbon notifies your ATS
  2. The candidate moves to your specified stage
  3. Interview data syncs to the candidate’s profile

Job Sync

Ribbon can pull your open jobs from your ATS:
  1. Click Sync Jobs to refresh the list
  2. Select the job to link with your interview flow
  3. Stages for that job become available for selection

Troubleshooting

Jobs Not Appearing

  • Click Sync Jobs to refresh
  • Check that the job is open/active in your ATS
  • Verify your ATS permissions allow Ribbon access

Candidates Not Syncing

  • Confirm the interview flow is linked to a job
  • Check that a stage is selected
  • Verify the candidate’s email matches your ATS records

Connection Lost

  • Re-authorize the integration in Settings
  • Check your ATS hasn’t revoked API access
  • Contact support if issues persist

Best Practices

  1. Link flows to jobs - Always connect interview flows to ATS jobs for automatic syncing
  2. Choose appropriate stages - Pick a stage that makes sense in your workflow (e.g., “Phone Screen Complete”)
  3. Keep jobs synced - Refresh your job list when you add new positions
  4. Monitor sync status - Check the integration status periodically

What Data Syncs

Ribbon sends to your ATS:
  • Interview completion status
  • Overall scores (if supported by your ATS)
  • Link to view the full interview in Ribbon
The specific data that syncs depends on your ATS’s capabilities. Some systems support more detailed integration than others.
