2026

All release notes from 2026.

 

October 15, 2026

Job Update API

New

(2)

• Published a Delayed publishing guide in English and Japanese for agencies that review a client's job before job seekers see it. It covers enabling the hold in Partner Console, reviewing the held job, publishing it with publishSourcedJobPostings, and the fact that each new update from the client's ATS holds the job again.
• Updated the rejected jobs examples with the status input that rejection messages require, since messagingTagMatches returns empty without it.

Documentation

(1)

• Clarified on JobPostStatus that a HIDDEN global status overrides a higher per-surface status such as ORGANIC.

Job Sync API

Documentation

(1)

• Fixed the rate limits section in English and Japanese to show that expirations count toward the same per-request-size limits as job creation, and that a throttled call returns SUBREQUEST_HTTP_ERROR with HTTP status 429.

Publisher JavaScript Plugin

Documentation

(1)

• Added two limits on the data-indeed-search-where attribute to Enable job search. It takes exactly one work location and accepts no geography finer than a municipality.

Candidate Sync APIs

Documentation

(3)

• Added the sendApplications requirement to Initialize application and upload attachments in the Send Candidates API guide. The feature must be enabled on the employer registration first.
• Moved application deletion out of the Send Candidates sync workflow, where Delete application is now a separate operation rather than a routine step.
• Updated Asset types in the Retrieve Candidates API guide to show which identifier belongs to which asset type in a mixed fetchAssets response.

Disposition Sync API

Documentation

(1)

• Clarified in the Disposition Sync API integration guide that one OAuth client ID covers both the Review phase and the Production phase, with no separate app for testing.

Indeed Apply

Documentation

(3)

• Added a deprecation notice for version 0.0 of the screener question schema to the Questions schema section. Support ended December 8, 2025, and integrations still on 0.0 send job seekers to the employer's website.
• Added the 1 MB size limit for the questions file to the JSON for screener questions reference.
• Removed the "Optional" label from smartFitScore in the analytics object fields table, since Indeed includes the field whenever the employer has enrolled in Smart Screening.

SCIM API

Documentation

(2)

• Updated Update user by ID in the SCIM API guide with the full endpoint URL rather than a relative path.
• Clarified in the SCIM API guide that SCIM end users do not have a consumer Indeed.com account and cannot sign in to Indeed directly.

September 30, 2026

Job Update API

New

(1)

• Added a rejected jobs section to the Job Update API guide. Request statusCommunication on surfaceStatuses in a findEmployerJobsPartner call to see why a job was rejected, then fix the issue and resubmit.

Documentation

(2)

• Clarified in the seat management guide that each seat must be a real work location, not a way to advertise in markets where the job is not based.
• Fixed the clearSeats description in the same guide: it expires agency-created seats, but only removes updates from ATS-created seats.

Job Sync API

Indeed Apply

Documentation

(1)

• Clarified in the Indeed Apply configuration reference that indeed-apply-resumefieldsrequired requests resume fields but does not guarantee them. A job seeker with no prior experience can skip a required page, and the application data omits those fields.

Get started

Documentation

(1)

• Updated the Japanese Indeed Documentation (Indeed ドキュメント), Get started (はじめに), Integration basics (連携の基本), Indeed PLUS, and API guides (APIガイド) landing pages with consistent terminology.

Integration basics

Documentation

(1)

• Updated the language codes, country codes, and locales table to 103 locales, adding Hungary, Austria, and Brazil. The table is now linked from Integration basics and the API reference.

Docs site

Documentation

(4)

• Reorganized the release notes to group each product's changes by change type, such as Breaking change, New, and Documentation, so changes that need action stand out. To learn what each type means, see Change types.
• Added a summary of each product's GraphQL schema changes to its release notes section, linked to that product's section of the GraphQL schema change logs. The change logs are also grouped by product and change type.
• Combined each year's release notes into one page, such as the 2026 release notes, with each release under its date, newest first. Links to each release's former page still work.
• Published a release notes page for every product, with all of its changes, newest first. Find them in Release notes by product.

September 15, 2026

Job Update API

New

(1)

• Documented the jobRequisitionId filter for findEmployerJobsPartner in the Job Update API guide and agency scenarios. Pass the value exactly as externalPostingMetadata.jobRequisitionId returns it. Matching is case-insensitive and does not trim whitespace. Requisition IDs are not unique, so the filter can return more than one job.

Documentation

(1)

• Corrected the documented default for jobFeedType. When the filter is omitted, the query returns only INTEGRATED_FROM_PARTNER. Set jobFeedType to retrieve crawled or hosted jobs.

(1)

• Added best practices for candidate assets, including handling both asset types in one response and applying screening updates in createdAt order so older data does not overwrite newer data.

Job Sync API

Documentation

Split postings can share the same url and jobRequisitionId, but each needs a unique jobPostingId so Indeed does not treat them as duplicates.

Job Sync API

New

(1)

• The Job Sync API is now available to direct employers.

Documentation

(2)

Documentation

(2)

• Expanded date screener-question guidance with locale-specific date formats, supported tokens, and common misconfigurations to avoid.

Policy change

(1)

• Updated the finishAppUrl parameter access policy. Starting August 1, 2026, eligibility for new users is based on regional annual-spend thresholds for searchable and sponsored jobs rather than an advanced screening purchase. Current users keep their existing setup.

Documentation

(1)
