Move opted-in Salesforce leads into Ashby
Give recruiting a head start by turning an explicitly interested Salesforce lead into an Ashby candidate profile.
Trigger
New Lead Trigger
Triggers when a new Lead is created in Salesforce.
Action
Create Candidate
Create a new candidate in the system. Use this to add candidates with their contact information and social profiles before applying them to jobs.
Why this helps
Recruiters can miss potential candidates when role interest or referrals arrive in the CRM and stay there.
- Reduce manual copying between sales and recruiting tools.
- Keep candidate intake moving while the lead is still fresh.
- Create profiles only when the Salesforce record indicates consent or clear recruiting intent.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Salesforce and Ashby once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to create an Ashby candidate for a new Salesforce lead only when the record clearly indicates consent or recruiting interest.
- 4Pick New Lead Trigger as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real, consented lead and review the created candidate.
Questions about this workflow
Will every new Salesforce lead become an Ashby candidate?
Your instruction should limit creation to leads with clear recruiting intent or consent. Review the first run to confirm that the instruction is specific enough.
What if the Salesforce lead lacks contact details?
Tell Notis to skip incomplete records and report them so you can follow up.

Salesforce triggers
Ashby actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add Candidate to Project
Add a candidate to a project in Ashby. Projects are sourcing initiatives or recruiting campaigns used to organize and track candidate pipelines. Use this to associate candidates with specific sourcing efforts. Common use cases: - Adding sourced candidates to recruiting campaigns - Organizing candidates by sourcing channel or initiative - Tracking candidates in specific hiring projects Requires candidatesWrite permission. Returns the updated candidate object on success, or error details if the candidate or project is not found.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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.
