How do I list Workable candidates?
Short answer: Drop the "Workable → List Candidates" action anywhere in your workflow, map the inputs from upstream nodes, and publish.

Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.

Limit limit | number | Optional | Limit |
Stage Filter stage | string | Optional | Stage Filter |
Sample request
{"limit": "{{trigger.limit}}","stage": "{{trigger.stage}}"}

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 workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does List Candidates support batch operations?
Yes. Run List Candidates inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Workable's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
