Why teams connect 6sense and Iterable

Flow 6sense data into Iterable in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

6sense is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Iterable, so Iterable always reflects the current state of 6sense — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

6sense owns the customer relationship and the pipeline; Iterable runs the campaigns, audiences, and outreach that fill it. The two overlap on the same people and companies — a lead in one system is a subscriber, a segment member, an event registrant, or an ad audience in the other. When that overlap is bridged by CSV exports or a nightly job, sales works from lists that no longer match reality and marketing keeps targeting people whose status has already moved on.

Common use cases

  • 01 Enrich inbound leads with 6sense firmographic and account-match data before routing.
  • 02 Feed in-market account lists to sales engagement tools to start sequences automatically.
  • 03 Export Iterable engagement data (emailSend, emailOpen, emailClick, emailBounce, purchase) into a warehouse for deliverability and campaign reporting.
  • 04 Stream Iterable System Webhook events into a database in near real time so opens, clicks, bounces, and unsubscribes land alongside CRM contact records.

Common sync patterns

Lead and lifecycle status agree

Status, stage, or score set in one system updates the matching record in the other, so a lead marketing is still nurturing is not worked as sales-ready, and a closed account stops receiving prospecting.

Segments and audiences follow the CRM

Where Iterable builds lists, segments, or ad audiences, membership tracks the fields and stage owned in 6sense, so who receives a campaign reflects current pipeline reality instead of a stale export.

Where Iterable generates leads: hand-off without re-keying

New leads or responders captured in Iterable flow into 6sense assigned and deduplicated, so nothing sits in a marketing list waiting for someone to export it.

What you can sync between 6sense and Iterable

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

6sense objects Iterable objects How this pairing syncs
Accounts Company records enriched with firmographics and intent data, matched to CRM accounts. Templates Reusable email/SMS/push/in-app message templates with handlebars fields; read via /api/templates and per-channel get endpoints, written via /api/templates/email/upsert and the other channel upserts. Accounts is specific to 6sense and Templates to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Dynamic account lists built from intent and fit criteria, read out to drive targeting. Lists Static subscriber lists; read via GET /api/lists and /api/lists/getUsers, with users added or removed via /api/lists/subscribe and /api/lists/unsubscribe to control who receives a send. Segments is specific to 6sense and Lists to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buying Stage Scores Model-predicted stage per account, synced onto CRM records for prioritization. Catalogs Named catalogs of items (products, content) used for personalization and recommendations; items upserted and read via /api/catalogs/{catalogName}/items. Buying Stage Scores is specific to 6sense and Catalogs to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Intent Signals Keyword-level research activity used to flag in-market accounts. Commerce / Purchases Purchase and cart activity tracked via /api/commerce/trackPurchase and /api/commerce/updateCart, feeding revenue attribution and abandoned-cart journeys. Intent Signals is specific to 6sense and Commerce / Purchases to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People / Contacts Persona and contact data surfaced for accounts, used to build outreach lists. Export data Historical user and event records pulled through the Export API (/api/export/data.json, data.csv, and userEvents) across data types like emailSend, emailOpen, emailClick, emailBounce, purchase, and customEvent. People / Contacts is specific to 6sense and Export data to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reach Scores Model scores reflecting the level and recency of outreach to an account or contact, used to prioritize follow-up. Users User profiles keyed by email or userId with custom data fields; upserted via POST /api/users/update, read via GET /api/users/{email} or getByUserId, bulk-written via /api/users/bulkUpdate (up to 1000 users per call), and deleted or GDPR-forgotten. Reach Scores is specific to 6sense and Users to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between 6sense and Iterable

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

6sense Iterable Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls 6sense for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Iterable through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Iterable 6sense Sub-second propagation

DetectionIterable notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. System Webhooks push email/SMS/push/in-app and custom events (send, open, click, bounce, complaint, unsubscribe) as JSON POSTs in near real time.

Delivery6sense does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: 6sense's output flows back as field updates on the originating Iterable records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • 6sense: Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by contracted API package.
  • Iterable: Limits are per endpoint and per project/key; exceeding one returns HTTP 429, so exponential backoff is advised. Event tracking allows far higher volume than metadata endpoints like campaigns/templates, and the Export API is throttled more tightly. Since Nov 10, 2025, passing the key in the query string or body is rate-limited more strictly than the Api-Key header.
