Does Granola integrate with Greenhouse or Lever? How to get interview notes into each ATS

No. As of November 2026, Granola has no native integration with Greenhouse or Lever: its own integrations page lists Slack, Notion, Attio, HubSpot, Affinity, Zapier, an MCP server and an API, and neither ATS appears. Greenhouse notes can be automated through Zapier, using Granola's "Note Added to Granola Folder" trigger and Greenhouse's "Create Candidate Note" action, which needs a paid Granola plan and a paid Zapier plan. Lever has no Zapier route we could find, so Lever notes are pasted by hand or sent by a small custom build on Granola's API and Lever's "Create a note" endpoint.

This page covers only the ATS question: what each route needs, what actually lands in Greenhouse or Lever, and what to check before you automate anything with candidate data in it. For how Granola behaves on an interview, its templates and its gaps, see Granola for interviews. We make Interview Signal, a different note taker mentioned once below; everything about Granola, Greenhouse, Lever and Zapier comes from their own sites, linked and dated.

Does Granola integrate with Greenhouse or Lever?

Not natively. Granola's integrations page names Zapier, Notion, Slack, Attio, HubSpot, Affinity, Granola MCP and the Granola API, and its pricing page adds Salesforce on Enterprise. Greenhouse, Lever and the words "applicant tracking" appear on neither page. On the other side, Greenhouse's integrations marketplace has a Zapier listing but no Granola listing, as of November 9, 2026.

The one place Granola mentions an ATS is its Zapier guide, which lists connecting "ATS tools (Greenhouse, BambooHR, Ashby)" among example workflows. Lever is not named. Granola's recruiting article takes the manual line: "copy the structured output into your ATS."

Which route works for which ATS?

How do you send Granola notes to Greenhouse?

By hand

Granola's sharing guide describes "Copy enhanced notes" in the three-dot menu, which copies the AI summary and the note link as Markdown but not the transcript; the transcript has its own copy icon. In Greenhouse, paste into the interviewer's scorecard, usually the Key Takeaways section (our Greenhouse note taker guide explains where each tool's output sits), or into a note. Greenhouse's candidate note article says notes live in the notes tab of the candidate profile and are visible to Site Admins and Job Admins on the job unless you tick "Add to Interview Kit" or make the note private.

Through Zapier

1. Check both plans. Granola's Zapier guide says "Zapier is only available for paid users, on our Desktop apps." Greenhouse is a premium app on Zapier, and Zapier's pricing page says premium apps are "exclusively available to users on paid plans"; Pro starts at $19.99 a month billed yearly, as of November 2026.
2. Make a Granola folder for interviews, for example "Greenhouse interviews". The "Note Added to Granola Folder" trigger fires only for notes added after the Zap exists, and you must own or collaborate on the folder. The other trigger, "Note Shared to Zapier", fires when you click it in a note's sidebar.
3. Find the candidate. Granola sends attendees with names and emails. Zapier's Greenhouse app has a "Find Candidate" search, which Greenhouse's own Zapier article describes as a search by email address. Filter out your own company's attendees first.
4. Create the note. Map Granola's summary and share link into "Create Candidate Note", which needs a candidate, a body and a visibility setting. Choose visibility on purpose rather than accepting a default.
5. Connect Greenhouse the current way. Zapier's migration notice says its Greenhouse app version 2.0.0 "uses Harvest v3 and OAuth 2.0 authentication" and that the older version stopped working on August 26, 2026. Greenhouse's own Zapier article (last updated July 9, 2026) still describes a Harvest API key and says the integration works for up to 100 jobs.
6. Test with a colleague playing the candidate before any real interview goes through it.

How do you send Granola notes to Lever?

By hand, in most cases: copy the enhanced notes into the interview's feedback form or a note on the candidate's profile. Our Lever note taker guide includes a note format that fits Lever's Feedback tab.

Automation needs a developer. We found no Lever app in Zapier's app directory as of November 9, 2026 (the zapier.com address for one returns "not found"), and Granola's Zapier guide does not name Lever. The pieces that do exist:

• Granola's side. The Granola API gives "programmatic access to meeting notes, transcripts, and AI summaries" and needs a Business or Enterprise plan to create keys. Granola's webhooks send a note.generated event when a note's first summary is created, but "payloads carry no note content", so your code fetches the note by its ID.
• Lever's side. Lever's developer documentation describes POST /opportunities/:opportunity/notes, which creates a note "and add[s] it to a candidate profile", with optional fields to post on behalf of a user, mark the note secret, or attach a score from 1 to 4. Leave the score empty: a rating should come from the interviewer, not from a summary.

The same pattern works for Greenhouse through its Harvest API. Greenhouse's Harvest documentation says v1 and v2 were set for removal on August 31, 2026, so build any new connection on Harvest v3.

What should you check before automating candidate notes?

• What goes across. Granola's Zapier payload includes the full transcript and your private notes as well as the summary. Map the summary only, unless your retention policy says interview transcripts belong in the ATS.
• Matching. A candidate who joins from a personal email that differs from the one in the ATS will not be found, and an internal debrief in the folder could post to the wrong record. Keep the folder for candidate interviews only.
• Where copies end up. An automated route puts candidate data in Granola, in Zapier and in the ATS. A deletion request then has three places to reach; see how long to keep interview notes.
• Notice to the candidate. Granola runs without a bot, so the candidate sees nothing unless you say so or switch on its chat message or watermark. Our consent script covers the opening line.
• Model training. Granola's model training page says Basic and Business may use anonymized data "to improve our services" by default, with a per-user opt-out; Enterprise is opted out by default.

When is Granola the wrong tool for an ATS-first team?

If notes must reach Greenhouse or Lever automatically for every interviewer, the ATS's own tool is the shorter path. Greenhouse's Notetaker product page says it "joins Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams interviews automatically" and that generated notes can be added to the scorecard in one click, on the Core, Plus and Pro tiers. Lever wrote in September 2025 that its AI transcripts and summaries are in the core subscription, not "a premium feature locked behind a new contract." Both join the call; Granola does not, which is the trade.

Interview Signal, which we make, does not solve the automation either: it has no ATS integration and exports notes shaped for Greenhouse and Lever that you paste by hand. For the wider choice, see Granola alternatives for recruiters and our side-by-side Interview Signal vs Granola comparison.

Which route should you pick?

• Copy and paste: best for hiring managers and small teams on Lever or Greenhouse who interview a few times a week.
• Zapier into Greenhouse: best for a Greenhouse team already paying for Zapier that wants summaries in the activity feed without code.
• API build: best for Lever teams, or Greenhouse teams with an engineer, who want automatic notes and control over exactly which fields cross.
• The ATS's own note taker: best when every interviewer's notes must land in the scorecard and a bot on the call is acceptable.
