What can you do with Checkr on Tray.ai?
Checkr runs background checks for employers, including criminal, motor vehicle, identity and verification screenings, with candidate invitations and adverse action handling. Tray.ai connects to Checkr through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Checkr API alongside the rest of your stack. API access comes through Checkr's partner program or API plan, so you need approved credentials first.
