Lever

Lever is an applicant tracking system (ATS) and candidate relationship management (CRM) platform for recruiting teams, now owned by Employ Inc. alongside Jobvite, JazzHR and NXTThing RPO. Lever exposes two distinct public surfaces: the authenticated Lever Data API at https://api.lever.co/v1 — a REST API over the whole recruiting pipeline (opportunities, contacts, applications, postings, requisitions, interviews, panels, feedback, notes, files, offers, users, stages, sources, tags, EEO responses, audit events and webhooks) — and an unauthenticated public Postings API at https://api.lever.co/v0/postings used to syndicate job listings to careers sites and third-party job boards, including an XML feed mode. Access to the Data API is credential-split: Lever customers use HTTP Basic with an API key for their own internal workflows, while every third-party product integration must use OAuth 2.0 and be approved through the Lever partner program, which also provisions a separate sandbox at https://api.sandbox.lever.co/v1. Lever publishes 52 OAuth scopes, ten webhook events with HMAC-SHA256 body signing, a dated API changelog, and a deprecation page covering the legacy Candidates surface superseded by Opportunities in 2020. It ships no first-party SDK in any package registry and no MCP server.

Lever publishes 19 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Webhooks, Applications API, Archive Reasons API, and 16 more. Tagged areas include Applicant Tracking, ATS, CRM, Recruiting, and Hiring.

The Lever catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Lever’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, support, engineering blog, pricing, changelog, and 44 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/lever-co: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

name: Lever
description: 'Lever is an applicant tracking system (ATS) and candidate relationship management (CRM) platform for recruiting
  teams, now owned by Employ Inc. alongside Jobvite, JazzHR and NXTThing RPO. Lever exposes two distinct public surfaces:
  the authenticated Lever Data API at https://api.lever.co/v1 — a REST API over the whole recruiting pipeline (opportunities,
  contacts, applications, postings, requisitions, interviews, panels, feedback, notes, files, offers, users, stages, sources,
  tags, EEO responses, audit events and webhooks) — and an unauthenticated public Postings API at https://api.lever.co/v0/postings
  used to syndicate job listings to careers sites and third-party job boards, including an XML feed mode. Access to the Data
  API is credential-split: Lever customers use HTTP Basic with an API key for their own internal workflows, while every third-party
  product integration must use OAuth 2.0 and be approved through the Lever partner program, which also provisions a separate
  sandbox at https://api.sandbox.lever.co/v1. Lever publishes 52 OAuth scopes, ten webhook events with HMAC-SHA256 body signing,
  a dated API changelog, and a deprecation page covering the legacy Candidates surface superseded by Opportunities in 2020.
  It ships no first-party SDK in any package registry and no MCP server.'

  note: 'Renamed from MCPServer 2026-09-03 (roadmap#247): the manifest self-describes as status: candidate — a tool list derived
    from the published API contracts, not an existing server. The scorer already read the manifest and reported mcp_server
    correctly; the MCPServer type was crediting the artifact-type surfaces with a server that does not exist.'
