Query Parameters

job_id*string

The numeric id from a Wellfound job URL, or the id of a row returned by the job search endpoint.

Match^\d+$

slug?string

The slug that follows the id in a Wellfound job URL. Optional — Wellfound resolves the posting on the id alone and the slug is cosmetic, so it is only worth sending when you already have it.
