# Candidate Self-Service Configuration: Google reCAPTCHA

Candidate Self-Service in Lanteria HR supports Google reCAPTCHA – a system designed to establish that a computer user is human (normally in order to protect websites from bots) – which can be used when a job candidate [registers](/v1/docs/registration-on-candidate-self-service) or [logs in](/v1/docs/log-in-to-candidate-self-service) to the Candidate Self-Service site. If you want to use Google reCAPTCHA on your Candidate Self-Service, you need to do the following:

- Register the Candidate Self-Service site domain in the [Google reCAPTCHA settings](https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create). The Lanteria HR administrator must have a Google account, to which this registration will be assigned to. For information on how to fill in the fields, refer to the field tooltips.![](https://cdn.document360.io/c315c68d-2799-4fcc-9a39-084315b58f14/Images/Documentation/image-1674024058295.png)
- Turn on reCAPTCHA in the Candidate Self-Service site configuration JSON file, which by default is located in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Lanteria.ApplicantSelfService.App\Custom: set the ShowCaptcha property to true.![](https://cdn.document360.io/c315c68d-2799-4fcc-9a39-084315b58f14/Images/Documentation/image-1674024094601.png)

*Note**If reCAPTCHA turned on in the **configuration** file, but the site domain is not registered in the Google reCAPTCHA settings, candidates will not be able to register on the Candidate Self-Service or log in. In this case, the Lanteria HR administrator must either complete configuration by registering the Candidate Self-Service site in the Google reCAPTCHA settings or turn off reCAPTCHA in the **configuration** file.*
