  title: Spark Hire API
  description: >-
    The Spark Hire API embeds video interviewing and talent assessment into an
    applicant tracking system or custom hiring application. It is a RESTful API
    with JSON responses served under https://api.sparkhire.com/v1.0. It manages
    jobs, one-way and live video interviews, interview questions and reusable
    question sets, company users (evaluators) and their integration API keys,
    candidate share links, and webhook subscriptions for interview and job
    lifecycle events.


    Authentication uses HTTP Basic: the username is your API key and the password
    is ignored. API keys are tied to an individual user and respect that user's
    permission level. API access is not self-serve - it must be enabled on your
    account by Spark Hire - but the API reference is fully public. Timestamps are
    RFC3339. Rate limit is 400 requests per minute; exceeding it returns 429 with
    an X-Rate-Limit-Try-Again-Seconds header.


    Endpoint paths and behavior below are transcribed from the public Spark Hire
    API reference at https://docs.sparkhire.com/. Request and response schemas are
    honestly modeled from the documented resources; exercising them live requires
    API access enabled by Spark Hire.
