How to set up an email alias

Add a secondary sending address to your Recruiterflow mailbox so you can send from more than one email without an extra seat.

Written by Vipakshi Joshi

Send from a secondary email address that's tied to your main mailbox — useful for warming a new domain, splitting outbound by purpose, or sending on behalf of a shared team address. Aliases handle this in Recruiterflow without needing an extra user seat.

How to add an alias

  1. Go to Settings → Profile.

  2. Click Add Alias.

  3. Enter the First Name, Last Name, Email, and pick the platform the alias is hosted on — GSuite or Office365.

  4. Click Connect next to the new alias to grant sending permissions, then approve the OAuth prompt from Google or Microsoft.

  5. You'll see a confirmation once the alias is live. It's now selectable as a From address.

Where you can use an alias

  • Profile emails (one-off messages from a candidate or contact record)

  • Bulk emails

  • Campaigns and Sequences

  • Recipes

Practical example

A recruiter running high-volume outreach to passive candidates wants to keep their main inbox clean. They add outbound@theirfirm.com as an alias on their existing Google Workspace mailbox, then set it as the From address inside a campaign. Outbound goes through the alias and replies still land back in their primary inbox.

Things to know

  • One alias maps to one user. Aliases aren't shareable across teammates — for that, see Using Shared Aliases in Recruiterflow.

  • Admins can see every alias in the workspace.

  • Aliases can't log into Recruiterflow. They're a sending address, not a user account.

  • If your domain or DNS provider blocks the OAuth grant, the Connect step will fail. Have your IT admin whitelist the Recruiterflow OAuth scope and try again.
