Enhanced API Support for Questionnaires

WHAT'S INCLUDED

To simplify integrations with external job boards, ATSs, and career portals, the Eightfold API framework has been enhanced with new APIs for retrieving position application questionnaires and question options, along with support for submitting candidate responses during application creation. These enhancements enable partners to build a complete external application experience while leveraging the questionnaires configured within Eightfold:

1. A new Position API (Get Position Apply Form Questions) retrieves the application form questionnaire configured for a position through PCS or PCS IX, for IJP applications or logged-in candidates.

2. The Upsert Application Stage API now accepts applicationAnswers in the request payload, so questionnaire responses collected outside Eightfold are persisted as part of the candidate's application.

3. A new Get Location Options endpoint on the Questions API retrieves options for location-based questions, so external applications can populate location picklists consistently with Eightfold.

WHY IT MATTERS

• Integrations (e.g., job boards) can present the same PCS/PCS IX-configured application questions a candidate would see on Eightfold's own apply flow.

• Candidate answers submitted externally can be captured and stored against the profile/application record, preserving screening data that previously had no path back into Eightfold via API.

• Location-based questions can be rendered with the same picklist data Eightfold uses internally, keeping candidate responses consistent.
