Kentico functionality design query
Hi,

One of our client needs to develop a system that would get job details from indeed.com and save it into kentico.

Here is what needs to be done:-

1) Read indeed.com for new jobs (I can achieve this)
2) Based on job’s category create a kentico category
3) Based on job details create a CMS desk access structure like job/year/month/category/actualjob
4) Edit job details from kentico cms desk

I am planning to create a custom entity and add category from indeed.com data. Now my trouble is in linking category to the structure mentioned in 3.

Kindly let me know the best strategy to do this.

Thanks,
Rachit Agarwal

Hi Rachit,

I would recommend to create custom document type for 'category' and another one for 'job' and every time you create new job document you can create category document (if it doesn't exist yet) and put the job document under it. You can use API to create/modify documents using custom code. Please see Selecting nodes, Creating documents and related topics in the same section in DevGuide for more details.

Best Regards,
