This article explains how to connect your Cognism account to Bullhorn so users can export Leads, Contacts, Candidates, and Companies directly from the Cognism Sales Intelligence Platform.
Before you begin
Before configuring the integration:
- You must be a Cognism Administrator.
- You must have an active Bullhorn account.
- Your Bullhorn subscription must include the Leads and Opportunities paid add-on.
- You must have permission to create and update Bullhorn records.
- You must have access to the Bullhorn objects you intend to export to.
For more information, see Bullhorn Requirements & Permissions.
Connect Bullhorn
- In the Cognism Web Application, click your profile avatar.
- Select Settings.
- Open Integrations.
- Locate Bullhorn.
- Click Add.
- Sign in to your Bullhorn account when prompted.
- Complete the authentication process.
After successful authentication, you will be redirected back to the Cognism Web Application and the integration will be available for configuration.
Configure the integration
Once connected, administrators can configure:
- Field mappings
- Export settings
- Update behaviour
- Object mappings for Leads, Contacts, Candidates, and Companies
These settings determine how Cognism creates and updates records within Bullhorn.
For detailed instructions, see Configure Bullhorn Field Mappings.
Remove the integration
If you need to disconnect Bullhorn:
- Go to Settings > Integrations.
- Locate Bullhorn.
- Click Remove.
To disconnect only your own Bullhorn account while leaving the organisation's integration configured, click Log Out instead.
User sign in
After the integration has been enabled by a Cognism Administrator, users can authenticate their own Bullhorn account before exporting records.
To sign in:
- Click your profile avatar.
- Select Settings.
- Open Integrations.
- Locate Bullhorn.
- Click Log In.
- Complete the Bullhorn authentication process.
Once authenticated, you can begin exporting records from the Cognism Web Application.
What's next?
After connecting the integration, we recommend:
- Configure Bullhorn Field Mappings.
- Review your export settings.
- Test the integration by exporting a small number of records before making it available to all users.
