Create a recruitment source

POST
/v1/recruitment-sources
curl --request POST \
--url https://api2.recruso.co.uk/v1/recruitment-sources \
--header 'Authorization: <Authorization>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{ "recruitmentSourceName": "example" }'

Creates a recruitment source for your agency. A recruitment source is how a worker heard about your agency — a job board, Indeed, Facebook, a newspaper, a friend, a cold call, a mail shot, an employment exchange.

The name must not already be in use by another of your agency’s records; a clash returns 400 rather than creating a duplicate.

Returns 201 with the created record.

You only ever see and change your own agency’s records; there is no owner id on the request, and an id belonging to another agency returns 404 rather than 403 so that its existence is never disclosed.

Access. Requires a client-credentials access token. Tokens issued through the interactive user login are rejected.
