If you already have the postings (from your ATS, a spreadsheet or a scrape) and need their Hirebase records, for example to get the job_id for Hiring Manager Contacts, look them up by URL instead of searching by company and title. You pay for the jobs that match, not for every job a search returns.

Endpoint

POST /v2/jobs/lookup

Request Body

string[]

required

1 to 100 posting URLs: the job’s page on its ATS or careers site (each at most 2,048 characters). Copied links still match: tracking parameters such as ?utm_source=, a trailing /application or /apply, a trailing slash, and either Greenhouse host (boards.greenhouse.io or job-boards.greenhouse.io).

Response

object[]

The live jobs found, each in the same shape as Get Job by ID. A job matched by two of your URLs appears once.

object[]

Which of your URLs matched which job.

Show child attributes

string

The URL as you sent it

string

The matching job’s _id

string[]

URLs that matched no live job, including postings that have already closed.

Billing

Each job in jobs counts as one job toward your plan’s job allowance, the same as a job returned by Job Search. URLs in not_found are free.

Example Request

curl -X POST "https://api.hirebase.org/v2/jobs/lookup" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -d '{

      "https://example.com/careers/not-a-job"
    ]
  }'

    ]},
)
data = response.json()
for match in data["matches"]:
    print(match["url"], "->", match["job_id"])

Example Response

Jobs are shortened here; each one has every field from Get Job by ID.
