✏️Introduction

 What is an API and what are they used for?

An API (or 'Application Programming Interface') allows two software components to communicate with each other using a set of rules and protocols. 

• For example, you might require Tribepad to communicate with your Payroll or HR system, to export candidate bank details or Right to Work information
• Tribepad would typically function as the 'server' (i.e. the platform that provides the base information), and your Payroll/HR system would function as the 'client' (i.e. the system that is requesting the information).

We offer several different APIs at Tribepad:

• External Applications
• Retrieve Applications
• Simple Job Create
• External Career Sites
• Options Values
• Candidate Custom Fields
