Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Legacy Candidates endpoints maintained for backward compatibility. New integrations should use Opportunities; Candidates remain available for historical record retrieval.
Manage feedback form templates, including question definitions and scoring rubrics applied across postings and stages.
Subscribe to Lever events (applicationCreated, candidateHired, stageChange, contactUpdate). Events are signed with HMAC-SHA256 for receiver verification.
The unauthenticated public Postings API for retrieving live job listings from a Lever account, used by external careers pages.
XML feed of open postings used by job aggregators (Indeed, Glassdoor, LinkedIn) for syndication.
Submit candidate applications against postings, including resumes, cover letters, and EEO survey data, and retrieve historical application records.
Contacts represent unique people across multiple opportunities, allowing Lever to deduplicate candidates who apply to multiple roles.

Read feedback forms and scorecards completed by interviewers and hiring managers, with templated and free-form fields.
Upload and download files (resumes, cover letters, portfolio attachments) associated with opportunities; supports docx, doc, pdf, txt, jpg, png.

Read source attribution (job board, referral, sourced) for opportunities to drive sourcing analytics.
List the configured pipeline stages and disposition stages used to route opportunities through screening, interviews, offer, and hire.
List and apply tags to opportunities for cohorting, sourcing, and reporting workflows.
