Why teams connect Greenhouse and Greenplum

Land the people and organization records from Greenhouse in Greenplum as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Greenhouse can use them.

Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Greenhouse is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in Greenplum next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Jobs, Offers, Scorecards, Scheduled Interviews from Greenhouse into tables in Greenplum continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Greenplum, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Greenhouse where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep Greenplum and a cloud warehouse in sync during a migration so both platforms serve consistent data.
  • 02 Feed BI reporting by syncing curated Greenplum views to downstream tools on a schedule.
  • 03 Write enriched or sourced Candidates from external tools into Greenhouse and keep contact fields refreshed as data changes.
  • 04 Stream Jobs, Departments, and Offices into a reporting database for recruiting funnel and time-to-fill dashboards.

Common sync patterns

Queryable history for planning and audit

A continuously synced copy in Greenplum gives you a durable, queryable record of how Greenhouse's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

Write-back of computed values

Segments, rollups, or risk flags computed in Greenplum sync back onto the matching records in Greenhouse, where the HR team sees them in the system they already use.

HR data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

People and organization records from Greenhouse arrive in Greenplum as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind, replacing hand-built extract jobs.

What you can sync between Greenhouse and Greenplum

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.

Greenhouse objects Greenplum objects How this pairing syncs
Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, and custom fields; read and written via Harvest, often created from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Candidates is specific to Greenhouse and Databases to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Applications Links a Candidate to a Job; carries current stage, status, and source. Movable, rejectable, and hireable through Harvest write calls. Schemas Namespace tables and control which objects a sync can see. Applications is specific to Greenhouse and Schemas to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Jobs Requisitions with openings, hiring team, departments, and offices; created and patched via Harvest, read out for funnel and time-to-fill reporting. Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets. Jobs is specific to Greenhouse and Tables to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status and custom offer fields; readable and patchable, commonly synced to HRIS on hire. Partitions Large tables are commonly partitioned by date, which shapes incremental reads. Offers is specific to Greenhouse and Partitions to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Scorecards Interviewer feedback and ratings tied to interviews; read-only in Harvest, exported to a warehouse for interview analytics. Views Read-only projections used to shape data before syncing it out. Scorecards is specific to Greenhouse and Views to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Scheduled Interviews Interview events with interviewers, times, and rooms; full create/update/delete support for calendar and reporting syncs. External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs. Scheduled Interviews is specific to Greenhouse and External tables to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Greenhouse and Greenplum

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.

Greenhouse Greenplum 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 applied to Greenplum as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Greenplum Greenhouse Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Greenplum for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key-based cursors.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • Greenplum: Bounded by cluster resources and concurrency settings rather than an API quota.
