Why teams connect Adyen and Greenhouse

Keep the employee, department, and cost records that Adyen and Greenhouse share consistent in real time, so the finance system and the people system stop drifting apart.

Adyen runs the money side of the company: who gets paid, what it costs, and which part of the business the cost belongs to. Greenhouse runs the people side: who works here, which team they sit in, and how their employment changes over time. The two overlap on the same people and the same org structure, because every employee is also a payee and every department is also a cost center. When that overlap is maintained by hand, a new hire, a transfer, or a termination has to be keyed twice, and the two systems start to disagree about who is active and where the cost lands.

Stacksync syncs Payments, Modifications (Captures, Refunds, Cancels), Payment Links, Merchant Accounts in Adyen with Departments and Offices, Candidates, Applications, Jobs in Greenhouse bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, updated, or deactivated on either side appears on the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV exports and nightly batch jobs.

That matters most when money follows a people event. A hire that finance can pay, a leaver whose access ends, a transfer that redirects cost to the right team, all happen from one change instead of two, so headcount and spend reconcile from the same set of records.

Common use cases

  • 01 Provision Stores, Users, and API credentials through the Management API from an internal admin app or IdP so new locations and staff get the right Adyen access automatically.
  • 02 Load Settlement Detail Reports into a warehouse to break out fees, interchange, and net payouts by merchant account for finance and treasury reporting.
  • 03 Stream Jobs, Departments, and Offices into a reporting database for recruiting funnel and time-to-fill dashboards.
  • 04 Export Scorecards and Scheduled Interviews to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load and interview outcomes.

Common sync patterns

Status changes propagate

A role, department, or employment-status change in either system updates the other within seconds, so cost allocation, access, and reporting reflect the current state.

People-driven costs land in finance

Compensation, reimbursements, or other costs tied to a person on the Greenhouse side flow into Adyen for posting, so the books reflect what people actually cost without manual re-entry.

New person becomes a known record in finance

When someone is added in Greenhouse, a matching employee or payee record appears in Adyen, ready for payroll, expenses, or cost allocation without anyone rekeying the details.

What you can sync between Adyen and Greenhouse

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Adyen objects Greenhouse objects How this pairing syncs
Modifications (Captures, Refunds, Cancels) Actions on an authorized payment via /payments/{pspReference}/captures, /refunds, and /cancels; written to settle, return, or void funds, with results confirmed by CAPTURE and REFUND webhooks. Scorecards Interviewer feedback and ratings tied to interviews; read-only in Harvest, exported to a warehouse for interview analytics. Modifications (Captures, Refunds, Cancels) is specific to Adyen and Scorecards to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Payment Links Hosted payment link objects created through /paymentLinks; created, retrieved, and expired, with paid or expired status reported back through webhooks for accounts-receivable sync. Scheduled Interviews Interview events with interviewers, times, and rooms; full create/update/delete support for calendar and reporting syncs. Payment Links is specific to Adyen and Scheduled Interviews to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Merchant Accounts Company and merchant account entities in the Management API; read and updated to keep account configuration, payment-method settings, and capabilities aligned with internal systems. Users Greenhouse users (recruiters, hiring managers); read and written, and referenced by the On-Behalf-Of header on every write. Merchant Accounts is specific to Adyen and Users to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stores Physical and online store entities under a merchant account (Management API); full CRUD, so new locations and their payment-method configuration can be provisioned from an internal admin source. Departments and Offices Org structure attached to Jobs; read and written to keep reporting hierarchies aligned with an HRIS or warehouse. Stores is specific to Adyen and Departments and Offices to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and API Credentials Customer Area users and API-credential objects managed via the Management API; created, updated, and deprovisioned to keep Adyen access aligned with an IdP or HR source. Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, and custom fields; read and written via Harvest, often created from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Users and API Credentials is specific to Adyen and Candidates to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Webhook Configurations Per-company or per-merchant webhook subscriptions (Management API); created, listed, and updated to control which events Adyen sends and to which endpoint and HMAC key. Applications Links a Candidate to a Job; carries current stage, status, and source. Movable, rejectable, and hireable through Harvest write calls. Webhook Configurations is specific to Adyen and Applications to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adyen and Greenhouse

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Adyen Greenhouse Sub-second propagation

DetectionAdyen notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Standard webhooks for payment events (AUTHORISATION, CAPTURE, REFUND, CHARGEBACK, and more) plus Management, Balance Platform, and report webhooks.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Greenhouse through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Greenhouse Adyen Sub-second propagation

DetectionGreenhouse notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. HMAC-SHA256 signed webhooks for candidate, application, job, and interview events, plus polling list endpoints with created_after / updated_after /.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Adyen through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adyen: Adyen does not publish fixed numeric rate limits; excessive requests return HTTP 429, and the Management API reports 'too many requests' in the error detail. Adyen recommends exponential backoff, and no rate-limit response headers are documented.
  • Greenhouse: Harvest enforces a per-integration limit over a rolling 10-second window (X-RateLimit-Limit, commonly 50 requests / 10s for approved integrations); responses carry X-RateLimit-Remaining and, on a 429, X-RateLimit-Reset and Retry-After.
