Settings
| Setting | What it is |
|---|---|
| ConnectionRequired | The HiBob connection the step signs in with. |
| Fields to fetch | Bob's hiring search has no default set — at least one id, at most 50. The useful ones are /candidate/id, /candidate/firstName, /candidate/lastName, /candidate/email, /candidate/phone, /candidate/city, /candidate/country, /candidate/employeeId, /candidate/jobOpeningsToApplicationIds, /candidate/sourceType and /candidate/modificationDate. /candidate/employeeId is the link to the employee record once the candidate is hired — ask for it if the flow carries on into Bob itself. |
| Filters | Bob filters on /candidate/id, /candidate/email, /candidate/firstName, /candidate/lastName and /candidate/modificationDate, with equals, notEqual, greaterThan or lessThan. Anything else is refused by Bob — filter the rest downstream. |
| Include archived candidates | true/false |
| Fetch every page | Follows Bob's cursor, and refuses past 20,000 candidates rather than answering a short list. |
| Candidates per call | 1 to 200. Bob's own default is 100. |
| Start at cursor | The Next cursor from an earlier run, to carry on where it stopped. Leave empty to start at the beginning. |
