Huntr
Huntr is a job tracking and career placement platform designed for organizations—such as universities, bootcamps, career coaching firms, and workforce development programs—that support job seekers in their employment searches. Through Huntr's Organizational API, administrators and advisors can programmatically access data on their members' job search activity, including the jobs, employers, and events that members track within their Huntr boards. Huntr provides a centralized view of job seeker progress, enabling organizations to measure placement outcomes and identify where members may need additional support.

Power end-to-end data operations for your Huntr API with Nexla. Our bi-directional Huntr connector is purpose-built for Huntr, making it simple to ingest data, sync it across systems, and deliver it anywhere — all with no coding required. Nexla turns API-sourced data into ready-to-use, reusable data products and makes it easy to send data to Huntr or any other destination. With comprehensive monitoring, lineage tracking, and access controls, Nexla keeps your Huntr workflows fast, secure, and fully governed.

Prerequisites
Huntr's Organizational API is available to organizations using Huntr Advisor—Huntr's career placement platform for universities, bootcamps, career coaching firms, and workforce development programs. To use this connector, your organization must have an active Huntr organizational account with API access enabled.
Obtain Your Huntr Organization Access Token
Nexla authenticates to the Huntr API using an Organization Access Token, which is a long-lived Bearer token associated with your Huntr organizational account. This token grants access to your organization's member, job, employer, and event data through the Huntr API.
To obtain your Organization Access Token:
-
Sign in to your Huntr organizational account at huntr.co.
-
Navigate to your organization's admin settings. The token generation option is located in your organization's API or developer settings section within the admin dashboard.
-
Generate a new Access Token. Copy the token value immediately and store it securely — you will need to paste it into Nexla when creating your credential.
Your Organization Access Token carries full read access to your organization's member and job data. Keep the token secure and do not share it in publicly accessible locations such as code repositories or client-side applications.
Additional details about the Huntr Organization API and access token management are available in the Huntr Organization API documentation.
Authenticate
Create a credential in Nexla
-
After selecting the data source type, click the Add Credential tile to open the Add New Credential overlay.
-
Enter a name for the credential in the Credential Name field and a short, meaningful description in the Credential Description field.
-
Enter your Huntr Organization Access Token in the API Token field. This is the Bearer token obtained from your Huntr organizational admin dashboard, as described in Prerequisites above. The token authenticates Nexla with the Huntr API and authorizes access to your organization's data.
-
Click the Save button at the bottom of the overlay to save the configured credential. The newly added credential will now appear in a tile on the Authenticate screen during data source creation and can be selected for use with a new data source.
Use as a data source
To create a new data flow, navigate to the Integrate section, and click the New Data Flow button. Select the Huntr connector tile, then select the credential that will be used to connect to the Huntr account, and click Next; or, create a new Huntr credential for use in this flow.
Endpoint templates
Nexla provides pre-built templates that can be used to rapidly configure data sources to ingest data from common Huntr endpoints. Select the endpoint from which this source will fetch data from the Endpoint pulldown menu. Available endpoint templates are listed in the expandable boxes below.
Once the selected endpoint template has been configured, click the Test button to the right of the endpoint selection menu to retrieve a sample of the data that will be fetched. Sample data will be displayed in the Endpoint Test Result panel on the right, allowing you to verify that the source is configured correctly before saving.
Manual configuration
Huntr data sources can also be manually configured to ingest data from any valid Huntr API endpoint, including endpoints not covered by the pre-built templates, chained API calls, or custom request parameters. Select the Advanced tab at the top of the configuration screen, and follow the instructions in Connect to Any API to configure the API method, endpoint URL, date/time and lookup macros, path to data, metadata, and request headers.
Huntr's Organization API is read-only — use the GET method for all requests. The base URL is https://api.huntr.co/org; append the resource path to target member (/members), job (/jobs), employer (/employers), or job event (/job-events) data. Each endpoint wraps its records in a top-level data array, so set the path to data to $.data[*]; the sibling next cursor field can be captured as metadata with $.next if you want to preserve pagination context with each record. You do not need to add an Authorization header manually — the Bearer token from your Huntr credential is included automatically in all API requests.
Once all of the relevant settings have been configured, click the Create button in the upper right corner of the screen to save and create the new Huntr data source. Nexla will now begin ingesting data from the configured endpoint and will organize any data that it finds into one or more Nexsets.
