How to Set Up the Fountain Integration with Testlify

Using Fountain's Partner API (PAPI), candidates move seamlessly from Fountain → Testlify → Fountain, with status updates and data sync handled automatically.

Testlify Partner Rule Stage
Once a candidate completes the assessment, Testlify populates the following partner details on their Fountain profile.
The table below describes each field:
| Detail's Key | Value Type | Description |
| Score | Percentage | A value between 0–100 representing the candidate's score percentage on the assessment. |
| Grade | String | The candidate's overall grade. Grades are configured on Testlify's Assessment Settings page. |
| Results | URL | Link to results on the Testlify Dashboard. |

| Candidate score | String | The candidate's score in fraction form. |
| Time taken | String | Total time the candidate spent completing the assessment on Testlify. |
You can define Partner Rules based on these details. For example, automatically advance candidates who score above 25 to the next stage, or move them to Approved when their status is Completed.
You can also download the PDF Report for any candidate: click the Testlify Completed status, then click PDF Report.
