How to get all candidates with the Ashby API in Python

Merge's guide explains how to utilize the Ashby API to efficiently retrieve candidate data using a Python script, which involves encoding the API key in Base64 and preparing necessary request headers. The process requires hitting the Ashby API endpoint repeatedly to gather all candidate information, using a cursor to manage data pagination. The guide also highlights the value of these APIs in allowing developers to access and manage data within Ashby, an applicant tracking system that aids recruitment teams in handling job applications and managing candidate life cycles. Additionally, it introduces Merge's Unified API, which enables seamless integration with Ashby and other applicant tracking systems like Lever and Greenhouse, thereby enhancing product capabilities and data synchronization with minimal friction. Jon Gitlin, the Senior Content Marketing Manager at Merge, shares his insights on integration platforms and the broader potential of Merge's solutions beyond just being an API product, emphasizing its role in managing customer integrations comprehensively.
