FAQ on integrating with Bullhorn’s API

How does Merge interact with Bullhorn’s API?

Merge can create, retrieve and update a variety of data types via GET, PUT, and POST methods. This includes candidate information (e.g., name, title, and company), job orders, job submissions, and interview stages.

You can learn more about the endpoints Merge supports here.

What are the sync frequencies for Bullhorn data in Merge?

The frequencies can vary, depending on the Bullhorn endpoints’ associated Common Models. That said, they typically range from 1 hour to daily syncs.

You can also leverage webhooks, which allow for real-time updates when key events occur, such as changes to candidates, job submissions, or job interview stages in Bullhorn.

What are some of the other ATS integrations Merge supports?

In addition to Bullhorn, Merge supports 50+ key ATS platforms via its ATS Unified API. This includes Greenhouse, Lever, Workable, JazzHR, and Jobvite.

You can see the full list of ATS integrations here.

How does Merge provide a secure Bullhorn integration?

Merge ensures that all data from Bullhorn is encrypted at rest and in transit using AES-256 encryption. Additionally, the integration supports multi-tenant and single-tenant environments, offering flexible security options based on customers' needs.

How do my customers authorize a Bullhorn integration with Merge?

They would do so using Merge Link, a user-friendly, customizable UI component. Once embedded into your product, Merge Link guides users through the authorization process step-by-step. This involves logging into their Bullhorn account securely through Merge Link, which grants the necessary permissions to sync data between their instance of Bullhorn and your application.

For more details on Merge Link, you can visit this page.

How does Merge log Bullhorn data and how long does it retain data?

Merge logs API requests and responses from Bullhorn and other integrations in real time. Data logs are stored based on your plan: Launch and Core plans have log retention of 3 to 7 days, while Professional and Enterprise plans extend retention to 30 to 90 days. During this period, logs are available for search and audit purposes.

How much does it cost to integrate with Bullhorn using Merge?

The cost of integrating with Bullhorn using Merge depends on the plan you choose. Merge offers various pricing options, including a Launch plan, which is free for up to 3 Production Linked Accounts and $650 per month for up to 10 accounts. For additional Linked Accounts, the cost is $65 per Linked Account.

If you need to support a high volume of Linked Accounts, your integration requirements are highly custom, and/or you'd like more strategic guidance and support in taking your integrations to market, you may want to explore Merge's Professional or Enterprise plans.

Meta Endpoint

Programmatically access required schemas

Third-party providers require specific (and often different) fields to write data to their APIs, making your code a mess.

Dynamically fetch required data schemas from Merge’s /meta endpoint to make POST or PATCH requests that just work.
