What you get back

When it worked, the answer is { "ok": true, "result": { … } }. Inside result:

`done`
`candidateId`
`action`
`hiringProjectId`
`from`	the account it ran on
`usedToday`	number
`dailyLimit`	number

A field that does not apply to an answer is left out, or is null.

When it did not work, the answer is { "ok": false, "error": "…", "message": "…" }. What each error means.

Good to know

The published definition calls the person's id only "the ID of the user"; that it is the Recruiter id is this tool's own wording.
