Decide on an application

Decide on an application

Required scopes: tasks:write

Records the job hiring manager's decision without a review task; reject disqualifies the candidate. Only the job's hiring manager may decide. Any other caller gets the same 404 application_not_found as an unknown application. reason_code_ids must be system reason codes or your organization's own; any other id returns 400 invalid_request_body. If the hiring manager is refused for another reason, such as Application Review being off or the application being archived, the response is 403 application_decision_forbidden. An application that already has a handoff or decision returns 409 precondition_failed.

Example (curl):

curl -X POST https://api.yardstick.team/v1/applications/app_def456/actions/decide \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer ys_sk_live_…' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Idempotency-Key: 7c3a…' \
  -d '{"decision":"reject","note":"Missing required experience"}'
