How do I advance a Greenhouse application?
Short answer: You can move application to stage in Greenhouse by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Greenhouse Move Application to Stage action to a workflow, map its 3 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ
Questions about Move Application to Stage.
What does the Move Application to Stage action do in Greenhouse?
Transitions an application to a new pipeline stage. For "scorecard passed → auto-advance to next stage" workflows or for "bulk-reject after deadline" maintenance.
What inputs does Move Application to Stage require?
Required: Application ID, Target Stage ID, On Behalf Of. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Greenhouse returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Greenhouse returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Move Application to Stage support batch operations?
Run Move Application to Stage inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Greenhouse's rate limits.
