ip	string	The applicant's IP address.	"0.0.0.0"
referer	string	The page containing the Apply button, if present.	"https://www.indeed.com"
smartFitScore	float	Optional. Smart fit score. Only included when the application is for a job whose employer has enrolled in Smart Screening; otherwise omitted. Existing integrations are unaffected.	99
sponsored	boolean	Returns: true — the job is sponsored on the Indeed search results page. false — the job is organic (not sponsored) on Indeed. empty or absent — the click did not originate on Indeed (for example, the applicant applied from a third-party site or through Indeed Targeted Ads (ITA)). Third-party sites cannot set this value. To track sponsored clicks from third-party sites, enable URL tracking. Because JSON responses don't include the sponsored parameter, configure sponsored tracking by job on the third-party site and append a tracking value to each joburl. Your system can then identify sponsored clicks by parsing the joburl.	false
targetedApplyAd	boolean	Returns true for Indeed Apply ads served on Indeed.	false
trackingUid	string	Used internally by Indeed teams.	"9h2vrcvte07bt847"
userAgent	string	Name and details of the software agent the applicant used.	"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/92.0.4515.107 Safari/537.36"

screenerQuestionsAndAnswers object fields

Indeed’s legacy format places the screener questions and their answers in the questions section of the JSON POST. New integrations should disregard the legacy section of the JSON POST and use questionsAndAnswers object. Existing integrations leveraging the legacy format should migrate to the current format as soon as possible to avoid failures in processing screener questions.

screenerQuestionsAndAnswers object fields

Field	Type	Description	Example
url	string	Screener Questions url from which the questions were retrieved.	https://www.yourcompany.com/job1234/questions.json
retrievedOnMillis	string	The datetime in milliseconds at which the questions were retrieved	1745852618000
questionsAndAnswers	array	A list or an array of: question: question as described in the previous section answer: the answer given to the above question	For an example, see questionsAndAnswers object example.
schemaVersion	string	The version of the questions and answers used in the delivered Screener Questions payload. This might be different from the schemaVersion of the JSON questions sent to Indeed.	"schemaVersion": "1.3"
