Why teams connect 6sense and Smartrecruiters

Flow 6sense data into Smartrecruiters 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 Smartrecruiters, so Smartrecruiters always reflects the current state of 6sense — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

6sense runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Smartrecruiters. Smartrecruiters is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync 6sense buying stage and intent scores onto CRM accounts so sellers prioritize in-market targets.
  • 02 Pull segment membership into a marketing automation platform to trigger campaigns when accounts enter a segment.
  • 03 Two-way sync Candidates and Applications with Postgres so recruiting-ops apps read and update hiring status, tags, and custom fields in SQL while recruiters keep working in SmartRecruiters.
  • 04 Write enriched or sourced Candidates from external sourcing tools into SmartRecruiters and keep contact fields refreshed as data changes.

Common sync patterns

Where Smartrecruiters tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Smartrecruiters, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in 6sense, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Smartrecruiters records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in 6sense, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

When a person changes team, manager, or region in Smartrecruiters, their accounts and territory assignments in 6sense update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

What you can sync between 6sense and Smartrecruiters

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 Smartrecruiters objects How this pairing syncs
Reach Scores Model scores reflecting the level and recency of outreach to an account or contact, used to prioritize follow-up. Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status, custom offer fields, and offer documents; readable and writable, commonly synced to an HRIS on hire (documents endpoint limited to 2 requests/sec). Reach Scores is specific to 6sense and Offers to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts Company records enriched with firmographics and intent data, matched to CRM accounts. Users Company users (recruiters, hiring managers) with roles, access groups, and activation state; read and written via the User Management API. Accounts is specific to 6sense and Users to Smartrecruiters — 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. Approvals Approval requests for jobs and offers; requests can be created, retrieved as pending, commented on, and approved or rejected via the Approvals API. Segments is specific to 6sense and Approvals to Smartrecruiters — 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. Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, attachments, custom properties, and consent; created, updated, and searched via the Candidates API, often populated from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Buying Stage Scores is specific to 6sense and Candidates to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Intent Signals Keyword-level research activity used to flag in-market accounts. Applications Links a Candidate to a Job and carries the current hiring status and source; created and advanced through statuses (screening, interview, offer, hired, rejected) via the Application API. Intent Signals is specific to 6sense and Applications to Smartrecruiters — 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. Jobs Requisitions (positions) with openings, departments, locations, and hiring team; created, patched, and read out for requisition and time-to-fill reporting via the Jobs API. People / Contacts is specific to 6sense and Jobs to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between 6sense and Smartrecruiters

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 Smartrecruiters 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 Smartrecruiters through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Smartrecruiters 6sense Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartrecruiters notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks API — subscribe to events (new application, candidate updated, status changed) delivered with a signing secret and retrievable callback logs.

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 Smartrecruiters records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • 6sense: Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by contracted API package.
  • Smartrecruiters: Per API credential: most endpoints allow up to 10 requests/sec (job publication and offer documents 2/sec), plus a concurrency limiter of up to 8 simultaneous requests (GET /candidates capped at 1). Exceeding returns 429; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit/Remaining and concurrent-limit headers.
