Qualified.io is a code assessment platform for hiring and training developers. The API provides access to assessments, challenges, results, candidates, and more. The API exposes 94 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically create new draft assessment, list all assessments. Covers 94 operations with apiKey authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for developer tools only.

## Capabilities

- Create new draft assessment
- List all assessments
- Get assessment details
- Update assessment
- Publish draft assessment
- Unpublish assessment
- Archive assessment

## Use cases

### Developer Tools Operations

Use the Qualified.io API to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 94 endpoints covering core functionality including create new draft assessment, list all assessments, get assessment details.

Example prompt: Call POST /assessments to create new draft assessment

### Automated Assessment_Cohorts Management

Automate assessment_cohorts operations by combining multiple Qualified.io API endpoints. Agents can list all assessments and then get assessment details in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call GET /assessments to list all assessments, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Qualified.io API 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 tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'create new draft assessment', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the Qualified.io API by hand means setting its Authorization header on every call to www.qualified.io/api/v1 and handling the assessment lifecycle responses yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Qualified.io API from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** Qualified.io puts the assessment id in the URL path (`/assessments/{id}`), so a rule can pin your agent to one assessment: it can read, publish, and unpublish that assessment and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so ones like archiving are not included unless you add them.
- **Credential handling:** Your Qualified.io API key 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.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'create a draft assessment' or 'publish an assessment', and Jentic returns the matching Qualified.io operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the Qualified.io API use?

The Qualified.io API uses an API key passed in the `Authorization` header. 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 new draft assessment with the Qualified.io API?

Yes. Use the POST /assessments endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the Qualified.io API?

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 new draft assessment through Jentic?

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

### How many endpoints does the Qualified.io API have?

The Qualified.io API exposes 94 endpoints covering assessment_cohorts, assessment_invitations, assessment_result_reviews operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Qualified.io API?

Yes. Jentic One is self-hosted by you, so your own rules decide which Qualified.io operations and credentials the agent may use. Because the assessment id sits in the URL path (`/assessments/{id}`), you can pin the agent to a single assessment and allow only the operations you choose, such as reading it and publishing or unpublishing it. Operations like archiving stay out of reach unless you explicitly add them.
