Frequently Asked Questions
Didn't find your answer? Please don't hesitate to reach out.
The Ashby connector supports API key authentication in open source mode, where you provide your Ashby API key directly. In hosted mode, credentials are stored securely in Airbyte Cloud and you authenticate using your Airbyte client ID, client secret, customer name, and optional organization ID.
Can I use this connector with any AI agent framework?
The connector is compatible with any Python-based AI agent framework including LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Pydantic AI, and custom implementations.
Does this connector support write operations?
Currently, the Ashby connector focuses on read operations only (List and Get actions). Write operations such as creating job postings, scheduling interviews, updating application statuses, deleting candidate profiles, or sending offer letters are not supported at this time.
How is this different from the Airbyte data connector?
Agent connectors are specifically designed for AI agents and LLM applications. They provide natural language interfaces, optimized response formats, and seamless integration with agent frameworks, unlike traditional ETL-focused connectors.
Will there be a platform for agent connectors?
The hosted version with secure credential storage through Airbyte Cloud is already available. See the hosted usage section in the documentation for setup instructions.
