Frequently asked questions
How do I find the shortcode for a specific job?
Use the list_jobs tool. It returns a list of all your openings, each with its unique shortcode required for more detailed queries or actions.
Can I add a new candidate directly to a job via AI?
Yes! Use the create_candidate action. Provide the job shortcode along with the candidate's name and email to register them in your Workable pipeline.
Is it possible to see the recruiter assigned to an account?
Absolutely. Run the list_account_members query to retrieve the directory of all users and recruiters in your instance, including their roles.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Workable tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
