Overview
Query our data with natural-language queries — e.g. "senior Python developers with Kubernetes in Seattle" — and fetch full detail on any result by its profile id.
The Ask Xverum API is a stateless, resource-oriented API under /v1, authenticated with an x-api-key header. Search for people, then get any profile directly — no session handles, no server-side result-set state.
Get started
- Quickstart — make your first call in 60 seconds.
- Authentication — how
x-api-keyworks, the error envelope, and how to get a key. - Rate limits — quotas, quota headers, and the
Retry-Afterheader.
