Action
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. If a candidate already has the tag, the operation will still succeed idempotently.
Why this helps
Recruiters lose time sorting candidate records when useful categories are buried in CRM notes or properties.
- Apply a consistent existing tag based on contact information.
- Make candidate records easier to filter and organize.
- Reduce repeated manual classification.
