Greenhouse integration

Contents


What can you do with a Dado-Greenhouse integration?

The Dado <> Greenhouse integration allows you to use Greenhouse as a source for importing users and updating user data in Dado. For instance, you can import newly hired team members into Dado, including any relevant data which could be needed for your preboarding and onboarding process.


What data is exchanged between Dado and Greenhouse?

Greenhouse data accessible to Dado

Dado connects to Greenhouse via their Harvest API, using an API key generated by a particular Greenhouse user. Dado can in theory access any data in Greenhouse accessible to this user.

In practice, which data is synced to Dado is determined by you, when you set up Greenhouse as an import source and select which fields should be imported.

Dado data accessible to Greenhouse

Dado does not sync data back to Greenhouse, so no data held in Dado would be exposed to Greenhouse.
