Praxicraft Assess API for Technical Hiring

These are tasks your org owns (also called cases). Attach them to assessments next to Praxicraft’s platform library.

If you are recruiting / ops

Create the task in the dashboard

Open Assess and add a custom task. Public API types are coding, MCQ, and text. Richer editors may exist only in the UI.

Write a clear question

Candidates see the title, description, and question. For coding, include language and starter code if helpful.

Attach it to an assessment

Edit the assessment → add the task → keep the assessment Active before inviting.

Deleting a custom task removes it from assessments; past submissions keep a snapshot of what the candidate saw.
