Greenhouse to Slack Greenhouse to Zapier Workflow Issue: Slack Notifications for Internal Job Openings

Hi ​@JAmerena 

Try this workaround using a live Zap Run: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/35632951078029-Use-previous-Zap-runs-as-trigger-test-records

Help links for using Greenhouse in Zaps: https://zapier.com/apps/greenhouse/integrations#help

I’m not too sure how this would help? Can you please clarify?

Thanks

Hey ​@JAmerena,

I would recommend checking the Zap history(https://zapier.com/app/history) to spot any issues there. 

There might be some problem with the trigger. The workaround could be directly creating a Webhook in Greenhouse and catching that in Zapier using Catch hook. Here is the documentation about creatin Webhooks in Greenhouse- https://developers.greenhouse.io/webhooks.html. Here is a helpful article for Webhooks in Zapier action- https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496083355661-How-to-get-started-with-Webhooks-by-Zapier

 

I know it can get a bit more technical and complex but if it’s important for you, you can give this approach a try. Hope it helps!

That also doesn’t seem to work, as the webhook does not trigger on live Job Post (only Job Post creation), nor have the appropriate fields available.

Hey ​@JAmerena,

But you can just add a filter for Live posts and use the Job Post created webhook.

 

Hope it helps!

Zap trigger: Greenhouse - New Job Post

Field: Limit to Live Posts

Value: True/False

If you are stuck since the Greenhouse Zap trigger step is only returns old job record data or different job record data than you are trying to use to configure the Zap actions.

You can configure a Zap and turn it ON, then test live, which will trigger a Zap Run.

You can see your Zap Runs here: https://zapier.com/app/history/

From there you can select a live Zap Run to then use as your Zap trigger example record to help you configure your Zap action steps.

The Job Post Created is live is automatically false, and cannot be switched on until it is created. Therefore I don’t believe this as a possible resolution.

The Zap is not being triggered at all despite a job being posted (and Zap is turned on), therefore I cannot even get a new test record.

Try reaching out to Greenhouse Support for help with their Zap app integration.

Try opening a ticket with Zapier Support: https://zapier.com/app/get-help

Hey ​@JAmerena,
 

The Job Post Created is live is automatically false, and cannot be switched on until it is created. Therefore I don’t believe this as a possible resolution.

It’s not automatically false but just the payload information. It’s just the same as the trigger and you just have to add Filter for limiting to live posts. I can understand it can get a bit more technical and I suggested this only if it was important and urgent for you, otherwise feel free to contact the support so you can use the native trigger. Hope it helps!
