# Invite Candidate

> Invites a candidate to the specified job. The candidate is created if they don't already exist for your company (matched on `candidateExternalId` if provided, otherwise on email/mobile), attached to the job, and the job's Workflows V8 invitation flow is triggered. The target job must have a Workflows V8 configuration; calls against legacy V1 jobs return 400. Provide either `jobExternalId` (the ATS-side identifier you supplied when creating the job) or `interviewerId` (the Alex-side identifier returned from `/createJob` and `/interviewers`) — exactly one. At least one of `email` or `mobile` is required as the candidate contact.
