Overview
Please note, you can only connect Greenhouse with Apollo if you are on a basic, professional, or custom plan. Users on a free plan do not have access to the Greenhouse integration. Users on a basic plan only have access to pull settings. Want to upgrade to activate the full functionality of the integration? Refer to our pricing page for further information or contact a member of our Apollo Sales Team to discuss your options.
If you are a recruiter that uses Greenhouse to track and manage candidate workflows from end-to-end, you can integrate your Apollo instance with your Greenhouse account.
The benefits of this integration include:
- Unified Candidate Data: Find and save your ideal candidates, then push Apollo contacts directly into Greenhouse
- Efficient Engagement: Deploy your Greenhouse candidates into your Apollo sequences
- Streamlined Workflow: Remove unnecessary steps when you work between Apollo and Greenhouse
- Automatic Synchronization: Contacts you push to and pull from Apollo will automatically sync in Greenhouse
Refer to the sections below for the steps to connect Apollo to Greenhouse, configure your integration settings, view your contact sync history, and disconnect Greenhouse from Apollo.
With great power comes great responsibility. You can only make changes to Greenhouse settings in Apollo if you are an admin or a user with permission to edit the CRM/ATS integration settings. Please refer to the Create Permission Profiles article for more information about permission settings.
To connect and disconnect Apollo with your Greenhouse account, you must be an admin in both Apollo and Greenhouse. If you are not an admin, please ask an admin to follow the steps in this article.
Connect Apollo to Greenhouse
Launch Apollo, and click the Integrations icon.
We're all about making your workflow as dreamy as your dream candidates! If you are already on a contact's profile page, click the CRM/ATS drop-down and then click Connect Greenhouse. 
Apollo directs you straight to the integrations page. Then, follow the instructions below to continue with the connection process.
Scroll to Greenhouse and click Connect.
Please note, you can only connect 1 ATS or CRM to Apollo at a time. For example, if you connect your Salesforce account to Apollo, you cannot connect your Greenhouse account. It's not because we're stingy. It's because we care about your data. Our integrations are bi-directional. This means that if you connect more than one CRM or ATS at once, you could get caught in an infinite data loop between the 3 platforms. And that's not fun for anyone.
Click Connect integration.
Read the details and then click Continue in the Greenhouse authentication modal.
Please note, we treat your permission with the utmost care and respect! When you grant Apollo access, you can easily sync data between Apollo and Greenhouse, automatically push and pull records, and streamline how you find and connect with candidates. Apollo only requests the necessary permissions that Greenhouse requires so that you can gain full functionality of the integration.
Enter your Greenhouse API key and then click Submit.
Can't find that safe place you hid your key because it's Just. Too. Safe? We're not judging—we've all been there! Hop on into the Generate an API Key for Greenhouse Recruiting article for the steps to create a new API key.
Click Continue.
Then, click Finish setup.
You have now connected your Greenhouse account with your Apollo instance.
Configure Greenhouse Settings
Now that you have connected Greenhouse with Apollo, there are 3 important settings to keep in mind:
- Add Your Greenhouse Subdomain
- Push Contacts to Greenhouse
- Pull Contacts from Greenhouse
Add Your Greenhouse Subdomain
To ensure the candidate info in Greenhouse syncs correctly with your contacts in Apollo, you must add your Greenhouse subdomain.
Log into your Greenhouse account and copy the app URL from the search bar.
Launch Apollo, click the Integrations icon, and then click View in the Greenhouse section.
Scroll to the Greenhouse subdomain section and paste the Greenhouse URL you copied into the Greenhouse subdomain bar. Then, click Save.
Apollo can now successfully link your synced contacts in Apollo with your synced candidates in Greenhouse.
Push Contacts to Greenhouse
Launch Apollo, click the Integrations icon, and then click View in the Greenhouse section.
Click the Push contacts toggle to automatically push into Greenhouse any new contacts you save in Apollo.
Please note, Apollo automatically conducts an initial pull when you first connect Greenhouse. You can only enable the automatic push toggle once the initial pull finishes.
When you enable automatic pushing, any time you add or delete a contact's information in Apollo, the change automatically updates in Greenhouse. For more details on how to edit data in Apollo, refer to the Edit Profile Data section of the Contact Profile Overview article.
Already have Greenhouse open in another tab? Please note, if you add or delete the contact details in Apollo of a candidate you are already viewing in Greenhouse, remember to refresh the page in Greenhouse to view the latest updates.
If you do not want to activate automatic pushing, do not enable the Push contacts toggle. In this case, you need to manually push the records you save one at a time or in bulk.
To manually push all your Apollo contacts to your Greenhouse account, click Push all Apollo contacts to Greenhouse.
If you only want to push a select number of contacts, launch Apollo, click Search, and then click People.
Apply filters to narrow your search. Then, click the checkboxes on the left of the contacts you want to add to Greenhouse. Click the Greenhouse drop-down and then click Push to Greenhouse.
You can also manually push a contact to Greenhouse from their profile page in Apollo. Click the More drop-down under the contact's name card and then click Push to Greenhouse. 
You have successfully pushed the contact(s) to your Greenhouse account.
Pull Contacts from Greenhouse
You do not need to take action to activate pull settings in Apollo. When you integrate the two platforms, Apollo automatically initiates the first pull. Then, Apollo pulls any subsequent Greenhouse updates you make into your Apollo instance within 2 hours of an update.
Noticed a slight delay? It can take up to 24 hours to update a record in Apollo when you delete it in Greenhouse. So bear with us—we're on the case! Apollo completes all other pull jobs within 2 hours.
If time is of the essence and you want to ensure an update in Greenhouse reflects in Apollo without delay, you can initiate a manual pull.
Launch Apollo, click the Integrations icon, and then click View in the Greenhouse section.
Click Pull all Greenhouse contacts into Apollo.
Click Pull now to confirm the request. Apollo then pulls all updates to your records in Greenhouse into Apollo.
You have successfully pulled all the information on your Greenhouse candidates into Apollo.
