How rejento connects to your mailbox.

rejento monitors one inbox per workspace. We never crawl personal mail, contacts, or calendar items beyond what the OAuth flow explicitly allows. Two ways to wire it up:

Option A — dedicated alias rejento@your-domain

The recommended default. Ask your IT admin to provision a new mailbox on your existing email host (Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace) using the address pattern rejento@your-company.com. The mailbox lives on YOUR domain — we never host email — and you point all vendor + careers traffic at it.

Why we recommend this: data isolation.rejento only reads the one inbox you nominate. Your inbox, your colleagues' inboxes, and any other email on the same tenant stay completely private.

Option B — link an existing role inbox

If you already use careers@, jobs@, hiring@, opportunities@, or a vendor distribution list as your inbound channel, you can point rejento at that instead. Same OAuth flow — we read the inbox you nominate, nothing else on the tenant.

Option C — legacy "use my full inbox" mode

Only available on Team and above. Requires acknowledging a three-checkbox disclaimer that confirms you understand we'll read every message that arrives in that mailbox — including non-recruiting threads.

Some recruiters can't convince IT to provision a separate alias and live entirely in their personal inbox. We support this with the legacy disclaimer flow. It's a power-user escape hatch — most customers should stick to A or B for cleaner data hygiene.

OAuth scopes we request

Microsoft 365 / Outlook

Mail.Read — read incoming JDs and resumes
Mail.Send — send shortlists, nudges, and interview invites from the same mailbox
Calendars.ReadWrite — create Teams interview events
OnlineMeetings.ReadWrite — attach a Teams meeting link to each interview

Google Workspace / Gmail

gmail.readonly — read incoming mail
gmail.send — send replies + invites
calendar.events — create Google Meet interview events

Connecting from Settings

Sign in to your workspace → Settings → the Your rejento inbox card. Type the mailbox address you want connected, hit Save, then click Sign in with Microsoft / Google. OAuth completes in a popup; the page auto-detects success and starts polling within the next cycle.

You can switch mailboxes any time — connect a new one + disconnect the old. Existing candidates and jobs stay; only future polling moves to the new mailbox.
