Debug Python Job Application API Script — Response Not Triggering Correctly

Job Details

Description

Summary Debug Python Job Application API Script — Response Not Triggering Correctly We have built a Python-based tool that interacts with a job application API and performs the following steps: Create application Update application (confirm the job) Trigger the next step in the application flow The script works correctly when tested manually, but when running through our Python script, the third step does not trigger — even though all API calls and responses appear identical to the working flow. We have confirmed the issue is not related to authentication. The difference appears to be in how the HTTP request is being constructed. 🎯 What We Need We need an experienced developer to: Compare our script's HTTP requests against a working session (headers, cookies, request ordering, timing) Identify exactly why the third step fails to trigger Fix the script so the full flow completes reliably 🧰 Likely Areas to Investigate Missing or incorrect headers (e.g. Referer, Origin, Content-Type) Session and cookie handling between steps Request timing or ordering issues Incorrect payload structure on the third request 📋 What You Will Receive Our current Python script API endpoint details and sanitized response logs A description of what the working flow looks like (Credentials will be shared privately and securely after hire — not in this post.) ✅ Ideal Candidate Strong experience with Python requests / httpx Familiar with HTTP session handling and header debugging Has debugged API integration scripts before Can explain the root cause clearly, not just patch it
