Trello 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.
