This article provides instructions for configuring and collecting all the information you need in order to add the Greenhouse Recruiting integration in BetterCloud.
BetterCloud requires the following authentication type when integrating with Greenhouse Recruiting regardless of SKU:

When adding the Greenhouse Recruiting integration you must enter a API Token
