How do I list Workable candidates?

Short answer: You can list candidates in Workable by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Workable List Candidates action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about List Candidates.

What does the List Candidates action do in Workable?
Lists candidates across all jobs in Workable, with stage and updated time. Used for analytics or for periodic exports to a HRIS.
What inputs does List Candidates require?
List Candidates has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Workable returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Workable returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does List Candidates support batch operations?
Run List Candidates inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Workable's rate limits.
