Running Candidate Management Scripts

Need to batch update statuses? From your terminal, you can trigger `update_candidate_hiring_stage` as part of a cron job. It moves candidates between stages without needing a GUI or browser. The tool also lets you create records using `create_new_candidate`. This is perfect for scripts that ingest data from external sources and need to log the candidate manually.

Listing Core Wizehire Data Sets

You can pipe lists of data directly into your shell script. Run `list_candidates` to get a full roster, or use `list_active_job_postings` to check the current job market openings. All output is clean text for scripting. Don't forget you can check system health with `check_api_health`, which confirms Wizehire API connectivity before your main CI/CD pipeline runs.

Retrieving Specific Organizational Details

When building an internal tool, you need specific data. Use `get_job_details` to pull all the info for a single job ID. Similarly, `list_hiring_team` gives you the roster of managers needed for reporting. Retrieving who is logged in doesn't require complex authentication; just call `get_current_user`. It keeps your scripts simple and focused on execution.
