Sync Business Draft Jobs with Indeed (Advertiser Account & Source ID)
Overview
To see your Business Draft jobs inside your Indeed Employer Dashboard, your Indeed Advertiser Account must be correctly linked using your Source ID. When this link is missing or misconfigured, jobs can post to Indeed but won’t appear under your Employer Dashboard.
Important: Business Draft doesn’t handle Advertiser Account linking on your behalf. If you have an Indeed Customer Success Representative, contact them to complete the linkage. If you don’t have a rep assigned, use the contact method provided below.
Heads up: If this isn’t done, your jobs will still be posted on Indeed, but they won’t sync to your Advertiser Account / Employer Dashboard.
What’s an Advertiser Account and Source ID?
Advertiser Account: The account at Indeed that owns your brand’s campaigns and Employer Dashboard visibility.
Source ID: The identifier Indeed uses to associate your ATS feed (Business Draft) to the correct Advertiser Account so your jobs appear in the right Employer Dashboard.
Before you start
Confirm which Employer/brand should own your jobs on Indeed.
Ensure you can log in to the correct Indeed Employer Dashboard.
Have your Source ID ready (your Indeed CSR can confirm it if you’re not sure).
Step‑by‑step: Link your Advertiser Account by Source ID
Identify your Advertiser Account
If you manage multiple brands or locations, verify the exact Advertiser Account that should receive jobs from Business Draft.
Collect your Source ID
Your Indeed Customer Success Representative can confirm your Source ID. If you’re unsure who your rep is, proceed to step 4.
If you have an Indeed representative
Email your Indeed Customer Success Representative and ask them to link your Source ID to your Advertiser Account so jobs from Business Draft appear in your Employer Dashboard.
Use the email template below.
If you don’t have a representative
Contact an Indeed Customer Success Specialist using this link: Contact Indeed Customer Success Specialist
In your request, include:
Company/brand name
Indeed Employer Account (email/login if relevant)
Advertiser Account name/ID (if known)
Your Source ID (if known)
That your ATS is Business Draft and you need the Source ID linked to your Advertiser Account so jobs surface in your Employer Dashboard
Verifying the link
After Indeed completes the linkage, verify that:
New and existing jobs from Business Draft begin appearing in your Indeed Employer Dashboard.
If you manage multiple locations, spot‑check a few jobs to ensure they’re attributed to the correct employer/brand.
Note: Propagation isn’t instant. It can take a short while for jobs to reflect after the link is applied.
Troubleshooting checklist
If jobs still don’t appear in your Employer Dashboard after the link is applied, check the following:
You’re logging into the correct Employer Dashboard and Advertiser Account.
The wrong Advertiser Account was linked (common if you have multiple brands or historical accounts).
Your jobs in Business Draft include the required fields (title, location, description) and are active.
You recently changed brands, domains, or ownership and need Indeed to re‑confirm the linkage.
You’re not accidentally filtering to Sponsored‑only or a specific status inside Indeed that hides organic jobs.
If none of the above resolves the issue, contact your Indeed representative again and provide:
Example job titles and location(s)
Links to the public job pages
Confirmation that your ATS is Business Draft
Your Source ID and Advertiser Account details
Who does what
You/Your Team: Own the request to Indeed to link the Source ID to your Advertiser Account.
Indeed: Performs the actual linkage so jobs from Business Draft appear in your Employer Dashboard.
Business Draft: Continues sending your jobs to Indeed once the linkage is in place.
