The BrightHire/Greenhouse integration allows users to seamlessly schedule and launch interviews, sync interview notes, and fill out Scorecards. In order to use this integration, you will need to complete a few simple steps.

Step 1: Open Greenhouse Integration Page in BrightHire

  • Open the Greenhouse Integration Page in BrightHire by visiting this link.


Step 2: Configure User Permissions in Greenhouse

Set Up User Permissions:

  • Make sure you have the correct Greenhouse user permissions; you’ll need to have the flag ‘Can manage ALL organization’s API credentials' and 'Manage and Configure Webhooks'. If you do not have it, a Greenhouse admin in your org can provision it for you. More details here.

Add a BrightHire User in Greenhouse:

  • In Greenhouse, click on the Configure icon in the upper right-hand corner.

  • Navigate to Users on the left-hand panel, and click + New Users.

  • Type <company-name>@greenhouse.brighthire.ai into the email input and click Site Admin.

  • Uncheck Send invitation email.

  • Click Save.

Your settings should look like this:

  • Locate and click on the <company-name>@greenhouse.brighthire.ai user in the Users list.

  • Locate the Host (Domain) and Admin User ID in the URL

Step 3: Create a Harvest API Key for the Greenhouse/BrightHire Integration

  • Click on the Configure icon in the upper right-hand corner of Greenhouse.

  • Navigate to Dev Center on the left-hand panel.

  • Click API Credential Management.

  • Click Create New API Key

  • Give your API key a name and select Harvest from the Type dropdown menu.

  • Click Manage Permissions.

  • On the Manage API Key Permissions page, click "Select All". When finished, click Save.

  • Your Harvest API key for the Greenhouse/BrightHire integration is created and configured. Navigate back to the BrightHire open tab, and Enter this API key into the API Key input box, click Save.



Step 4: Complete your Greenhouse Integration

  • Check Enabled.

  • Click Save

  • The Integration Status at the top should display a green checkmark. If not, there should be an error message. You can follow the instructions or contact support.
