What Kini does with jobs from Tlou.
Kini connects to Tlou on the job side. It reads active jobs through Tlou's API, keeps them current and archives them when they close, while each job links candidates back to Tlou to apply. Six places where that makes a difference.
Active jobs read from Tlou through its API
Kini reads every job with the status Active from your customer's Tlou account through Tlou's API, then fetches the full details of each one. Jobs with any other status are not imported. By default the sync runs once an hour, on a schedule Kini sets per company, and each later sync updates the same job record in Kini.
Job details translated into Kini's standard values
Kini takes each job's title, description, salary range and creation date from Tlou. Tlou's functional expertise, job level, type of job post, education and work model are translated into Kini's standard values for category, seniority, employment type, education and remote work. A value Kini does not know yet stays empty and is recorded for mapping.
Location and header image from the company record
Kini fills each job's city, postcode, country and street from the address of the company record in Tlou, and stores the company's header picture with the job as its banner image. Employer details maintained in Tlou therefore arrive with every job, without anyone entering them a second time in Kini.
Applications stay in Tlou
Every job Kini reads from Tlou carries two links back to Tlou: the job's posting page and its application page. Candidates who follow the application link apply in Tlou itself, so their application is created in your customer's Tlou account directly and Tlou remains the system of record for candidates.
Closed jobs archived, reopened jobs restored
Because Kini only reads active jobs, a job that closes in Tlou is missing from the next sync. Kini then archives it and takes its active campaign bookings offline. If the job is set back to Active in Tlou, Kini reactivates the same record and, where the campaign is still running, puts its bookings back online.
Promote a Tlou job straight after publishing
Kini's promote link signs a user in and opens the promote page for one job, identified by its ID in Tlou, ready to book reach for it. If the job was only just published in Tlou, Kini fetches it from Tlou first, so it can be booked without waiting for the next scheduled sync.
Every field. Every entity.Exactly where it belongs.
Kini reads two kinds of data from Tlou: the job itself and the company record attached to it. Nothing is written back to Tlou. Field names below are spelled as Tlou's API returns them to Kini.

End-to-end GDPR consent
Every application that flows through Kini carries a consent flag, mirrored on the target system's side and traceable in audits.
Native-language custom fields
Locations, departments and sources are mapped correctly even when they use German naming conventions or regional variants, whether your customers sit in DACH or operate internationally.
Application flows for a wide range of job boards
Stepstone, Indeed, Jobrapido and regional boards each have their own required fields, screening patterns and encoding rules. Kini's mapping engine is trained for those: out of the box, not as a custom project.
Operated by the Kini team
Kini runs the connection for you, including monitoring and alerts. If a vendor changes an API or a mapping breaks, our team fixes it before it reaches your funnel. Operated from Germany.
Frequently asked questions about the Tlou integration.
What Kini reads from Tlou, how often it syncs, what happens when a job closes, and where the application link leads.
Kini reads jobs from Tlou: every job with the status Active, with its title, description, salary range, job level, education and work model, plus the address and header picture of the company it belongs to. Kini writes nothing back to Tlou. Each job links to its application page in Tlou.
No. Kini does not write candidates or applications into Tlou. Each job carries a link to its application page in Tlou, and candidates who follow it apply in Tlou directly, so the application is created in your customer's Tlou account without Kini having to forward it.
By default, Kini reads active jobs from Tlou once an hour, on a schedule set per company. A job that is needed sooner can be fetched on demand: opening Kini's promote link for a Tlou job makes Kini fetch that job from Tlou before the promote page opens.
Kini only reads jobs with the status Active, so a closed job is missing from the next sync. Kini then archives it and takes its active campaign bookings offline. If the job is set back to Active in Tlou, Kini reactivates the archived record instead of creating a second one.
The address of the company record in Tlou. Kini fills city, postcode, country and street from that address for every job of the company, and takes the work model from the job itself. All jobs of one company in Tlou therefore carry the same address in Kini.
Yes. Kini's promote link opens the promote page for one job, identified by its ID in Tlou. Kini fetches that job from Tlou first and creates it if it is not in Kini yet, so the job can be booked straight away instead of after the next scheduled sync.
No. Tlou stays the system of record for jobs and candidates. Kini reads the active jobs, keeps them current for booking on job boards and archives them when they close in Tlou.
