For Agents
Programmatically list candidates, get candidate. Covers 19 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to candidates, I want to candidate, Search for add candidate, Find all candidate
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or developer tools - use for crm only.
Recruiterflow ATS/CRM API for managing candidates, clients, contacts, jobs, campaigns, and activities. The API exposes 19 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Recruiterflow API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Recruiterflow API, 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://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Frecruiterflow.com%2Frecruiterflow" | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Frecruiterflow.com%2Frecruiterflow" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic 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.
Capabilities
What an agent can do with Recruiterflow API.
List candidates
Get candidate
Add candidate
Update candidate
Search candidates
Move candidate to stage
Use Cases
Patterns agents use Recruiterflow API for, with concrete tasks.
★ CRM Operations
Use the Recruiterflow API to perform crm operations programmatically. The API provides 19 endpoints covering core functionality including list candidates, get candidate, add candidate.
Call GET /api/external/candidate/list to list candidates
Automated Activities Management
Automate activities operations by combining multiple Recruiterflow API endpoints. Agents can get candidate and then add candidate in a single workflow.
Call GET /api/external/candidate/get to get candidate, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Recruiterflow 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.
Search Jentic for 'list candidates', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Recruiterflow API by hand means learning its apiKey auth, pointing at the api.recruiterflow.com host, and handling its /api/external requests yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Recruiterflow API from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Recruiterflow's candidate operations take their target in the request body rather than the URL path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as listing or adding candidates. You choose that set, so state-changing operations like disqualifying a candidate or moving one to a stage are only included if you add them.
Credential isolation
Your Recruiterflow 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.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'list candidates' or 'add a candidate to a job', and Jentic returns the matching Recruiterflow operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs
Specific to using Recruiterflow API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Recruiterflow API use?
The Recruiterflow API uses an API key passed in the `RF-Api-Key` 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 list candidates with the Recruiterflow API?
Yes. Use the GET /api/external/candidate/list endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Recruiterflow 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 list candidates through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'list candidates'. Jentic returns the matching Recruiterflow API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Recruiterflow API have?
The Recruiterflow API exposes 19 endpoints covering activities, campaigns, candidates operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Recruiterflow API?
Yes. Jentic One is self-hosted by you, so your own rules decide which Recruiterflow operations and credentials the agent can use. Because the candidate operations take their target in the request body rather than the URL path, you scope access by choosing the exact set of operations you import, such as listing or adding candidates. State-changing calls like disqualifying a candidate or moving one to a stage are only available to the agent if you deliberately include them.
