# Article Name 3 Ways to Enable Users for Greenhouse # Article Summary Explore three methods to enable users in Greenhouse ensuring flexible access management and smoother hiring workflows across teams # Original HTML URL on Toriihq.com https://www.toriihq.com/articles/how-to-enable-user-greenhouse # Details Giving the right people the right level of Greenhouse access shouldn’t feel like wrestling a spreadsheet. When recruiters, interviewers, and hiring managers sign in with confidence, candidate data stays safe and your process runs faster. We’ll walk through three practical ways to add or activate users, manual invites, bulk uploads, and HRIS sync, so each team can get what they need without clogging your inbox with permission requests. ## Use Greenhouse's UI Bring an inactive Greenhouse account back online in a few clicks. ### 1. Open the Users page - Sign in to your Greenhouse dashboard with an account that has permission to manage users. - Hit the gear icon in the top-right corner to open Configure. - From the left-side menu, select Users to view the user list. ### 2. Locate the inactive user - In the Status filter near the top, switch from Active to Inactive. - Type the person’s name or email in the search bar to narrow the list quickly. - Click the user’s name to open their profile card. ### 3. Make the user active - In the profile header, click Make Active to restore the account. - Greenhouse will ask for confirmation, so choose Yes and the status snaps back to Active. ### 4. Review and adjust permissions - While still on the profile, scroll to the Permissions section to review access. - Pick the correct role for their responsibilities: Site Admin, Job Admin, or Basic. - When everything looks correct, click Save at the bottom. ### 5. Send or resend the invite - If the user never created a password, click Resend Invite at the top of the profile. - Greenhouse immediately sends the email so the user can log in and get started. ## Use Torii Instead of activating a user directly in Greenhouse, you can use Torii [https://www.toriihq.com/], a SaaS management platform, to do it for you. SMPs let you oversee all your SaaS subscriptions and integrations from one dashboard, so you can programmatically onboard or offboard people, track subscription details, and more. Torii can automate the entire job from start to finish. The workflow fires when a trigger you choose occurs, such as hiring a new employee, offboarding someone who is leaving, or reaching a contract-renewal date, which saves hours of manual work. To turn on a user in Greenhouse directly from Torii, follow these instructions: ### 1. Sign up for Torii Contact Torii Sales [https://www.toriihq.com/info/request-a-demo] and request your complimentary two-week proof-of-concept. They’ll set up a sandbox environment within minutes and show you how to start building workflows. ### 2. Connect your Greenhouse account to Torii Once your Torii environment is ready, link your existing Greenhouse account. This quick connection lets Torii pull the data it needs to run user-related actions without extra manual configuration. ### 3. Create a Torii workflow for Greenhouse Inside Torii, navigate to the Workflows tab, define a trigger, and add an action that will enable the user in Greenhouse. After that, whenever the trigger conditions are met, Greenhouse will be updated automatically. ## Use Greenhouse's API Every so often a colleague’s account gets stuck in the “disabled” state. A quick Harvest API call turns it back on without touching the Greenhouse UI. ### 1. Locate the user’s Greenhouse ID - Send a quick search request to find the user profile: - Make a note of the id value returned in the response. You’ll use it in the next call. ### 2. Double-check the current status - Run the lookup call now to confirm the current status: - Check the JSON for the "disabled": true flag on the user. If it already says false, the account is active. ### 3. Patch the user to disabled: false - Flip the disabled flag from true to false and save: Greenhouse responds with the updated user object showing "disabled": false. ### 4. Confirm everything worked - Fetch the record a final time to make sure it stuck: - Verify that disabled remains false and that no error messages were logged. With those four calls, you’ve re-enabled the account and avoided the UI altogether. ## Torii for SaaS Management Dig deeper into effective SaaS management across every corner of your organization.
