Check Ashby access after an audit event

Spot recruiting integration access issues before they block work.

Trigger

New Audit Log Record

Triggers when a new audit log record is created in Confluence. Requires Confluence Standard/Premium/Enterprise plan and 'Confluence Administrator' permission.

Action

Get API Key Info

Retrieve information about the current API key, including associated organization, user details, and permissions. Use this to verify API key validity and check what access level the key has. Useful as a prerequisite check before write operations (e.g., ASHBY_UPDATE_CANDIDATE) or list operations (e.g., ASHBY_LIST_APPLICATIONS) to confirm the key has required scopes.

Why this helps

Administrative changes can silently break recruiting automations.

  • Surface access problems early
  • Support safer automation operations
  • Reduce stalled recruiting workflows

Add Candidate Tag

Add a tag to a candidate in Ashby. Use this to categorize and organize candidates with existing tags from the system. This action allows you to apply labels/tags to candidates for filtering, searching, and organizational purposes. Tags must already exist in the system - use LIST_CANDIDATE_TAGS to view available tags or CREATE_CANDIDATE_TAG to create new ones. The response includes the full updated candidate object when successful, showing the newly added tag in the candidate's tags array.
