Why teams connect Active Directory and Creatio CRM

Keep the people Creatio CRM and Active Directory both track in agreement in real time: the internal users who own records in Creatio CRM, and the customer login accounts in Active Directory.

A CRM and an identity system usually describe different populations. Creatio CRM tracks customers, contacts, and the deals in motion; Active Directory governs who is allowed to sign in and what they can reach. Where the two meet is people. The reps who own records in Creatio CRM are the same employees Active Directory provisions and disables, and when Active Directory also runs the login accounts for your product, the customers in Creatio CRM are the same users Active Directory authenticates. Left unconnected, a departure in Active Directory leaves stale ownership sitting in Creatio CRM, and a signup in Active Directory never reaches the account it belongs to.

Stacksync syncs Custom sections (objects), Accounts, Contacts, Leads in Creatio CRM with Users, Groups, Group memberships, Devices in Active Directory in real time and in both directions, matching on email or an external ID and mapping field by field. You decide which system owns which fields, and new users, role and group changes, deactivations, and account status move within seconds instead of waiting on a quarterly access review or a manual export.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep Creatio cases aligned with a dedicated support desk tool for teams that split service across systems.
  • 02 Sync Creatio accounts and opportunities into a warehouse for pipeline and forecast reporting outside Creatio dashboards.
  • 03 Read Users, Groups, and directoryRole assignments into a warehouse for periodic access reviews and SOC 2 audit evidence.
  • 04 Keep security-group memberships aligned with application entitlement tables so access reflects the right teams as they change.

Common sync patterns

Where Active Directory governs your workforce: CRM users kept current

New employees in Active Directory become active users in Creatio CRM with the right role, and group or department changes update their access and team, so the CRM's user list matches the directory without an admin re-keying it.

Deactivation and record hand-off

When someone is disabled in Active Directory, the matching user in Creatio CRM is deactivated too, and the accounts, contacts, and deals they owned are flagged for reassignment, so nothing goes unattended after they leave.

Where Active Directory runs customer login accounts: identity on the customer record

Signup, account status, multi-factor enrollment, and last-login from Active Directory land on the matching contact or account in Creatio CRM, so go-to-market teams see who has actually activated and who has gone dormant.

What you can sync between Active Directory and Creatio CRM

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.

Active Directory objects Creatio CRM objects How this pairing syncs
Organizational units On-prem AD DS containers (LDAP organizationalUnit) used to scope which users and groups a sync includes. Leads Inbound interest records qualified into opportunities; synced for funnel reporting. Organizational units is specific to Active Directory and Leads to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizational contacts Directory contact objects (orgContact); synced for shared address-book and CRM person records. Opportunities Deal records with stages and amounts used in revenue syncs. Organizational contacts is specific to Active Directory and Opportunities to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users User accounts in Entra ID and on-prem AD DS; synced two-way to create, update attributes, and enable or disable accounts. Activities Tasks, calls, and meetings tied to records for engagement tracking. Users is specific to Active Directory and Activities to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Security and Microsoft 365 groups; synced two-way including name, type, and owner, with membership tracked separately. Cases Service requests handled in Creatio's service workflows; syncable to help desk tools. Groups is specific to Active Directory and Cases to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Group memberships Member and owner links between users and groups; membership add/remove changes are surfaced by delta query. Orders Order records bridging CRM and fulfillment or ERP systems. Group memberships is specific to Active Directory and Orders to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Devices Registered and joined device objects; typically read into a database for inventory and compliance reporting. Products Catalog items referenced on orders and opportunities. Devices is specific to Active Directory and Products to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Active Directory and Creatio CRM

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.

Active Directory Creatio CRM Sub-second propagation

DetectionActive Directory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers.

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

Creatio CRM Active Directory Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Creatio CRM for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on ModifiedOn system columns.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Active Directory: Graph throttles by resource-unit cost per app per tenant in 10-second windows (about 3,500–8,000 units by tenant size); directory delta tokens expire after ~7 days.
  • Creatio CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.

How the Active Directory and Creatio CRM connectors work

Active Directory

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (Entra ID / cloud) and LDAP/LDAPS (on-premises AD DS)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform — an app registration with application or delegated permissions (e.g. User.ReadWrite.All, Group.ReadWrite.All) and admin consent; on-prem AD DS uses a bound service account over LDAPS.
Change detection
Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers; on-prem AD DS uses the DirSync control and uSNChanged polling.
