# symplr CTM

> Integrate your application with the symplr Contingent Talent Management (CTM) ClearConnect API

## Quickstart

Connect to symplr CTM with Nango and see data flow in 2 minutes.

<Steps>
  <Step id="create-integration" title="Create the integration">
    In Nango ([free signup](https://app.nango.dev)), go to [Integrations](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations) -> *Configure New Integration* -> *symplr CTM*.
  </Step>

  <Step id="authorize-symplr-ctm" title="Authorize symplr CTM">
    Go to [Connections](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections) -> *Add Test Connection* -> *Authorize*, then enter your CTM site name, username and password. Later, you'll let your users do the same directly from your app.
  </Step>

  <Step id="call-symplr-ctm-api" title="Call the symplr CTM API">
    Let's make your first request to the ClearConnect API (list regions). Replace the placeholders below with your [Environment API key](/docs/reference/backend/http-api/api-keys), [integration ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations), and [connection ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections):

    <Tabs>
      <Tab title="cURL">
        ```bash theme={null}
        curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/2_0/index.cfm?action=getRegions&resultType=json" \
          -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-API-KEY>" \
          -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
          -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"
        ```
      </Tab>

      <Tab title="Node">
        Install Nango's backend SDK with `npm i @nangohq/node`. Then run:

        ```typescript theme={null}
        import { Nango } from '@nangohq/node';

        const nango = new Nango({ apiKey: '<NANGO-API-KEY>' });

        const res = await nango.get({
            endpoint: '/2_0/index.cfm',
            params: { action: 'getRegions', resultType: 'json' },
            providerConfigKey: '<INTEGRATION-ID>',
            connectionId: '<CONNECTION-ID>'
        });

        console.log(res.data);
        ```
      </Tab>
    </Tabs>

    Or fetch credentials with the [Node SDK](/docs/reference/backend/backend-sdk/node#get-a-connection-with-credentials) or [API](/docs/reference/backend/http-api/connection/get).

    You're connected! Check the [Logs](https://app.nango.dev/dev/logs) tab in Nango to inspect requests.
  </Step>

  <Step id="implement-nango" title="Implement Nango in your app">
    Follow our [quickstart](/docs/getting-started/quickstart) to integrate Nango in your app.

    To obtain your own credentials, follow the setup guide linked below.

## symplr CTM integration guides

Nango-maintained guides for common use cases.

* [How do I link my symplr CTM account?](/docs/api-integrations/symplr-ctm/connect)
  Find your ClearConnect site name, username and password and connect them to Nango

Official docs: [symplr CTM ClearConnect API 2.0](https://www.symplr.com/contingent-talent-management)

## API gotchas

* ClearConnect is an RPC-style API, not a resource-based REST API: every call goes through a single endpoint, `/2_0/index.cfm`, with an `action` query parameter (e.g. `?action=getClients&clientIdIn=12015`) selecting the actual operation. Copy the exact `action` name and its arguments from the endpoint's own documentation.
* The `resultType` query parameter controls the response format (`json`, `xml`, `csv`, `tsv`). It is not required, but if omitted the API defaults to XML -- always pass `resultType=json`.
* Authentication supports two REST patterns: a Basic Authorization header on every request (`Authorization: Basic base64(username:password)`), or a session-key exchange (`getSessionKey` with Basic auth, then `Authorization: Bearer {sessionKey}` on subsequent calls, with the session key expiring over time). Nango uses the simpler Basic-auth-on-every-request pattern, so there is no session to refresh.
* The base URL is tenant-specific: `https://ctms.contingenttalentmanagement.com/{site-name}/clearConnect`. The site name comes from the customer's own ClearConnect base URL and is not discoverable through the API itself. The `2_0` API version segment isn't part of the base URL — include it in each endpoint call (`/2_0/index.cfm`).
* Some functions are Module Functions, only available to CTM customers who have purchased or enabled a specific module (e.g. Booking Region, PeopleSoft, Single Worker Portal). Calling one without the module enabled returns an error indicating the required module must be enabled.
* `get*` actions have per-function record limits; `insert*` actions are capped at 200 records per batch/call.
* String and numeric list arguments (e.g. `statusIn`, `tempIdIn`) are comma-delimited strings, not JSON arrays, and are always returned as strings even for numeric lists.
