Delete Candidates

API Details

Perform HTTP DELETE on the /atsCandidates endpoint when a customer deletes candidate records. More information is available here.

Attach Person URN to Candidate

After your ATS receives a One-Click Export stub profile from LinkedIn and creates a candidate in your ATS, it is recommended to sync the newly created candidate in your ATS back to LinkedIn. You may use the sync candidates endpoint to create or update the candidate. Once you do this you must attach the Person URN to the candidate.

Note

You may pass an empty array for emailAddresses field in the sync candidates endpoint as long as you follow it up with attaching the Person URN to the candidate.

Use the following endpoint to attach a Person URN to a candidate:

POST https://api.linkedin.com/v2/atsCandidates?ids[0].atsCandidateId={id 1}&ids[0].dataProvider=ATS&ids[0].integrationContext={organization URN}&ids[1].atsCandidateId={id 2}&ids[1].dataProvider=ATS&ids[1].integrationContext={organization URN}
