Retrieve a verification code or link
Auto Apply is an invite-only beta.
BLOCKS while polling the mailbox for the verification email belonging to the given application, using the application’s apply host and provider as context to pick the right email. Some providers send a one-time code, others a confirmation link — the response’s type says which was found: type code carries the code; for type link Jobo clicks the confirmation link server-side (https-only, SSRF-guarded) and returns it with link_visited / link_http_status. Pass type to constrain what is accepted (default any). Status timeout means no verification email arrived within wait_seconds — an expected outcome, not an error.
Optional. This endpoint only saves you reading the inbox yourself — an integration that resolves the code or link its own way submits it through the same answers call and never needs a connected mailbox.
Call this the moment an application pauses on a one_time_code step: the step’s answer window is 60 seconds, so keep wait_seconds at the default 45 to leave time to submit the code through the answers endpoint. Keep your HTTP client timeout above wait_seconds.
The extracted code or link is validated server-side: it must appear verbatim in the selected email. Email contents never leave the extraction — only the code or link, sender, and subject of the matched email are returned.

Mailbox ID.
Body
The application whose verification email should be found. Its apply host and provider give the extraction its context.
How long to keep polling before answering timeout. Values are clamped server-side.
5 <= x <= 75What the verification email is expected to carry. code = only a one-time code satisfies the request; link = only a confirmation link (clicked server-side); any = whichever the email carries.
code, link, any Response
The poll finished: status found with the code, or status timeout.
