Ashby is a people or recruiting platform used by talent acquisition teams to manage candidate, job, interview, and application records. Beam agents can read those records, apply an approved rule, create or update the next record, and route exceptions for review. Start with an event such as a candidate reaches a new hiring stage, then confirm account permissions and connector availability before moving it into production
What the Ashby integration does
Ashby is a people or recruiting platform used by talent acquisition teams to manage candidate, job, interview, and application records. In Beam, it becomes a controlled action point: agents can retrieve the context they need, make an approved update, and hand unusual cases to a person. The exact objects and permissions depend on the connector configuration, so use the capability evidence in the migration record when defining a workflow.
How Beam agents use Ashby
A workflow starts with an event such as a candidate reaches a new hiring stage. The agent checks candidate, job, interview, and application records in Ashby, applies the workflow rule, performs the permitted update, and records the result. If the data is incomplete or the requested action falls outside the connector's permissions, the agent routes the case for review instead of guessing.
Example workflows
When a candidate reaches a new hiring stage, a Beam agent reads candidate, job, interview, and application records in Ashby, updates the next record, and routes exceptions to the responsible owner.
When a workflow request arrives, a Beam agent retrieves candidate, job, interview, and application records from Ashby, applies the agreed rule, and records the outcome for talent acquisition teams.
After a status, approval, or delivery event changes, a Beam agent checks candidate, job, interview, and application records in Ashby, sends the next notification, and leaves an auditable handoff.
Operational value
Fewer manual handoffs between Ashby and the systems around it.
A clearer audit trail for candidate, job, interview, and application records and exception handling.
More consistent movement from a candidate reaches a new hiring stage to the next owner or system.
Before you build
Confirm the supported candidate, job, interview, and application records, authentication scopes, and availability for your Beam workspace. Keep exception handling explicit: the agent should pause and route a case when required data or permissions are missing.
