For Agents

Programmatically create a new candidate application, get candidate status. Covers 234 operations with apiKey, oauth2 authentication.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Webhooks to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Webhooks, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Webhooks API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Developer Tools Operations

Use the Webhooks to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 234 endpoints covering core functionality including create a new candidate application, get candidate status, get application configuration for posting.

Call POST /postings/{uuid}/candidates to create a new candidate application

Automated configuration Management

Automate configuration operations by combining multiple Webhooks endpoints. Agents can get candidate status and then get application configuration for posting in a single workflow.

Call GET /postings/{uuid}/candidates/{candidateId}/status to get candidate status, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Webhooks endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey, oauth2 tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'create a new candidate application', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Your SmartRecruiters credential is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'apply a candidate to a posting' or 'check a candidate's status', and Jentic returns the matching SmartRecruiters operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Webhooks API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Webhooks use?

The Webhooks uses apiKey, oauth2 authentication. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Can I create a new candidate application with the Webhooks?

Yes. Use the POST /postings/{uuid}/candidates endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Webhooks?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I create a new candidate application through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'create a new candidate application'. Jentic returns the matching Webhooks operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Webhooks have?

The Webhooks exposes 234 endpoints covering configuration, candidates, jobs operations.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the SmartRecruiters API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which SmartRecruiters operations and credentials the agent may use. SmartRecruiters puts the posting and approval id in the URL path, such as /postings/{uuid}/candidates and /approvals/{approvalRequestId}, so a rule can pin the agent to a single posting where it can add candidate applications and read their status. Since you choose the operations it may call, actions like creating approval requests stay off limits unless you explicitly allow them.
