# List unscheduled jobs

List unscheduled jobs is a read in the HeadHoncho API. Open jobs and leads that have no booked time yet, the ones that waited longest first.

Page: https://headhoncho.app/docs/api/list_unscheduled_jobs | Part of the HeadHoncho API docs: https://headhoncho.app/docs/api | Machine-readable: https://headhoncho.app/docs/api/openapi.json | Everything in one file: https://headhoncho.app/docs/api/llms-full.txt

## The request

Reference for **List unscheduled jobs**, HeadHoncho API v1. It is a read, sent to the base address `https://api.headhoncho.app`.

`GET /api/v1/jobs/unscheduled`

The key needs the **Jobs** area at **read**. An answered call costs 1 credit; a refusal costs nothing. See [credits](https://headhoncho.app/docs/api/errors#credits).

Send your key as `Authorization: Bearer hh_live_...`. See [API keys](https://headhoncho.app/docs/api/keys).

## Parameters

| Name | Kind | Required | Description | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `company_id` | id, in the query | No | One company. Default: every company the credential reaches. | `cmp_14f5` |
| `limit` | number, in the query | No | 1 to 200. Default 200. | `200` |

## Try it with your key

Paste your key and change the values. The box builds the call as a cURL line and a fetch line, ready to copy. It never sends anything itself.

Paste your key on the web page and it fills a cURL line and a fetch line with your key and the example values. The page never sends the key anywhere. The same lines with a placeholder key are under Examples below.

## What comes back

items, one job each in the Get a job shape plus waited_days (whole days since it was opened), oldest first; count, how many wait in all; time_zone and today. Canceled and closed jobs are left out. Trashed jobs are never listed.

It never changes a record. It only reads the companies the key reaches.

## Every field in the answer

Types are read from the example answer. Money is a plain number in the company's currency. A time carries its offset from UTC (`Z` is UTC). Ids are opaque text. A field with no line of its own here has its name spelled out; the common fields mean the same on every page.
