Set candidate status

Change a candidate to in progress, on hold, rejected, withdrawn or hired.

PUT https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/comeet/candidates/{candidate_id}/status

write Confirm

Sets the status as the status list on the profile does. rejected and withdrawn need last_step, the last completed workflow step; for a Go/No Go or Interview step pass completed_by, the participants of that step. reason is one of your disposition reasons, and is required when your company made them required. hired needs opening, application_date and first_day. A change from in progress cancels future scheduled interviews. notify decides whether the candidate hears about a rejection: none (default), create_send_notification_step or send_message. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
