SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting

Cause

Candidate-specific tokens are only resolved when the email context is associated with a specific candidate.

The Outlook Response to Interview Organizer email trigger is associated with the interview as a whole and may involve multiple candidates. Since the notification is sent to the recipient in the context of the overall interview rather than a single specific candidate, the system does not have a unique candidate context from which to populate the candidate-specific tokens.

Therefore, the following tokens cannot be resolved by this email trigger:

  • [[CANDIDATE_FIRST_NAME]]
  • [[CANDIDATE_LAST_NAME]]
  • [[CANDIDATE_FULL_NAME]]
  • [[CANDIDATE_EMAIL]]

This is expected system behavior.

Resolution

Candidate-specific detail tokens are not supported for the Outlook Response to Interview Organizer email trigger.

To determine which tokens are supported for a specific email trigger:

  1. Navigate to Admin Center > Recruiting Email Triggers.
  2. Select the relevant email trigger.
  3. Select Supported Tokens.
  4. Click View Tokens to review the tokens supported by the selected trigger.
