How view resolution priority works

Which view applies when more than one could apply

Written by Amogh Balikai

When multiple views could apply to the same person, Recruiterflow resolves them in a fixed order, every time:

Personal > Specific-user > Team > All users

The most specific view to that individual always wins.

Worked example: Priya is on the Exec Search team, which has a Team view. An admin has also set up a Specific-user view just for Priya. And Priya has built her own Personal view. All three exist at once — but Priya sees her Personal view that she has set for herself.

If Priya deletes her Personal view, she'd drop down to the Specific-user view built for her. If that didn't exist either, she'd see her Team view. Only with none of those does she fall back to Standard.

Things to know:

  • This priority is fixed — it can't be reconfigured per account.

  • Publishing a Team or Specific-user view does not automatically override an existing Personal view, unless the publisher checks "Override personal views."


  • This is the first thing to check when a user says "I'm not seeing the layout I expected."
