How to Configure SAML 2.0 for Greenhouse Recruiting (Subdomain) (DEPRECATED)


This app is deprecated. Please find our new Greenhouse Recruiting app in the OIN.


Read this before you enable SAML

Enabling SAML will affect all users who use this application, which means that users will not be able to sign-in through their regular log-in page. They will only be able to access the app through the Okta service.

Backup URL

Greenhouse does not provide backup log-in url where users can sign-in using their normal username and password. You can contact Greenhouse Support (support@greenhouse.io) to turn off SAML, if necessary.
