Connect Breezy HR with a personal access token (API key). After that you can import a published Breezy job into Cutshort and export candidates back to that job.

​
Before you start

You need:
  • A Breezy admin account with API access enabled
  • Permission to create a personal access token in Breezy
If you do not see API Keys in Breezy, ask a Breezy admin to turn on API access or create the key for you. Breezy documents this in Can I generate a Breezy API Access Token?

​
1. Create an API key in Breezy

Use a personal access token (PAT). Do not use a session token from Breezy sign-in.
  1. In Breezy, click your profile icon in the left sidebar.
  2. Click My Settings.
  3. Open the API Keys tab.
  4. Click + Create API Key.
  5. Name it something like Cutshort.
  6. Choose an expiration timeframe.
  7. Click Create Key.
  8. Copy the token immediately. Breezy shows it only once. It starts with breezy_pat.
If someone is removed from your Breezy account, their token stops working. Create a new key and reconnect in Cutshort.

​
2. Add the key in Cutshort

  1. On Cutshort, open Settings → Integrations (cutshort.io/profile/hiring-settings/integrations).
  2. Under ATS integrations, choose Breezy HR.
  3. Paste the token in API key.
  4. Leave Company ID (optional) blank if you have one Breezy company. If you have more than one, you can pick the company later when you import a job.
  5. Click Connect ATS.
When it works, you will see Breezy HR connected. You can Reconnect or Delete the key from the same card. You can also paste the same key from a job pipeline stage: open the stage → choose Export to ATS → Breezy HR.

​
3. Import a job from Breezy

After Breezy is connected, Jobs (cutshort.io/profile/employer-dashboard) shows Import from ATS. Jobs page with Import from ATS next to Post a job
  1. Click Import from ATS.
  2. If you have more than one Breezy company, choose Breezy company.
  3. Choose a job from Breezy. Only published positions appear.
  4. Choose whether to send applications back automatically:
    • Yes, send only matching applications (recommended)
    • Yes, send all applications
    • No. I will do manual export.
  5. If automatic export is on, choose which Breezy stage new applications should land in.
  6. Click Continue and finish job setup on Cutshort.
Import from ATS with a Breezy job selected and automatic export options Jobs you have already imported are marked Already imported.

​
4. Export candidates from the pipeline

On any job pipeline (cutshort.io/profile/workflow), open a stage (click Automation is off or the stage name). Job pipeline stages with Automation is off Set the action to Export to ATS, choose Breezy HR, pick the Breezy Jobs and Stages, then click Update stage. Stage settings with Export to ATS, Breezy HR connected, and Jobs and Stages Candidates who enter that stage are created on the Breezy position. On the Applications stage you can also choose to send only matching applications or all applications.

​
What Cutshort sends to Breezy

When a candidate is exported, Cutshort creates them on the Breezy position and attaches their resume. These fields are set:
  • Name
  • Email
  • Phone (if we have it)
  • Origin — sourced
  • Source — Cutshort
  • Stage — the Breezy stage you selected
  • Summary — experience, current and expected salary (INR), notice period, and the application highlight when available
  • Resume file
Cutshort does not change your existing Breezy candidates or pipeline stages.

​
If something goes wrong

  • No API Keys tab in Breezy — your account may not have API access. A Breezy admin needs to enable it.
  • Connect ATS fails — paste the full token, including the breezy_pat prefix. Create a new key if you closed the dialog without copying it.
  • No Breezy companies found — the token is tied to the Breezy user who created it. Use a key from someone who can see the company.
  • No jobs listed — only published Breezy positions appear. Publish the role in Breezy, or pick another company if you have more than one.
  • Multiple companies — choose Breezy company on Import, or enter Company ID when you connect.
  • Export shows failed — confirm Breezy HR connected under Settings → Integrations, then check the stage still points at the right Breezy job and stage.
  • Need to rotate the key — in Breezy, create a new PAT. In Cutshort, click Reconnect (or Delete, then connect again). Candidates already exported stay in Breezy.
