Create Ashby talent tags from Discord
Make new recruiting categories easy to find as your community grows.
Trigger
New Member Joined
Triggered when a new member joins a Discord server (guild) you manage.
Action
Create Candidate Tag
Create a new candidate tag in Ashby for categorizing and organizing candidates. Tags are labels that help you filter, search, and group candidates for better organization and workflow management. Use this action to create custom tags based on skills, experience levels, departments, or any other criteria relevant to your hiring process. Returns the newly created tag with its unique ID, title, and archived status. Tags are created in an active (non-archived) state by default.
Why this helps
Talent themes emerge in community conversations before the ATS has a useful label for them.
- Keep talent taxonomy current
- Make future searches easier
- Capture emerging hiring needs

Ashby actions
Recurring trigger

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.
