Configure Google Login

Overview

Google login allows users to sign in to Trakstar Hire using their organization's Google account, providing a convenient alternative to using a separate password.

Note: Google login is not the same as Single Sign-On (SSO). Trakstar Hire does not support Google SSO because Google does not provide the metadata URL required for the application's SSO configuration.


Set Up Google Login

To configure Google login for your organization:

  1. Open the Google Apps setup page.
  2. Complete the required Google configuration.
  3. Decide how users should gain access to your Trakstar Hire account.

You can access the Google Apps setup page here . You can choose one of the following options:

  • Allow users to self-add using their company's Google credentials.
  • Require users to be added manually under Settings > Users before they can sign in.


Configure User Provisioning

You can manage whether users are allowed to create their own accounts from:

Settings → Users

If self-registration is enabled:

  • New users are automatically assigned the lowest permission level.
  • They can only access openings, candidates, and other items that are subsequently assigned to them.
  • Their ability to create or manage items depends on the permissions associated with their assigned user role.

Sign In with Google

Overview

Existing Trakstar Hire users whose accounts use a Google email address can sign in using their Google credentials instead of entering a separate password.

To sign in:

  1. Navigate to the Trakstar Hire login page.
  2. Select Log in with Google.

  3. Sign in using your Google account when prompted.

If your Google account is already associated with your Trakstar Hire user account, you'll be signed in automatically after authentication.


Important Notes

  • Google login is available only for existing users whose Trakstar Hire account uses a Google email address.
  • Google login is an authentication method and is not the same as Single Sign-On (SSO).
