Why teams connect Adobe Sign and Azure Cosmos DB

Mirror Adobe Sign's data into Azure Cosmos DB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Adobe Sign through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Azure Cosmos DB.

Stacksync mirrors Users, Groups, Agreements, Agreement Form Field Data from Adobe Sign into Items (JSON documents), Partition keys, Change feed entries, Stored procedures and triggers in Azure Cosmos DB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Adobe Sign, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Provision and deactivate Users and Groups from an HR system or identity provider so Acrobat Sign membership and group placement track employee status.
  • 02 Stream the per-agreement Agreement Events audit trail into a compliance database for retention and who-signed-what reporting.
  • 03 Two-way sync between a Cosmos DB-backed product catalog and a PIM or commerce platform.
  • 04 Consolidate documents from multiple containers into a single reporting store.

Common sync patterns

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Adobe Sign arrive as row changes in Azure Cosmos DB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Adobe Sign with a query

Records from Adobe Sign are ordinary rows in Azure Cosmos DB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

What you can sync between Adobe Sign and Azure Cosmos DB

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.

Adobe Sign objects Azure Cosmos DB objects How this pairing syncs
Library Templates Reusable document templates (libraryDocuments); referenced when creating Agreements and synced for template governance. Stored procedures and triggers Server-side logic scoped to a partition; relevant when writes must respect existing validation. Library Templates is specific to Adobe Sign and Stored procedures and triggers to Azure Cosmos DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Widgets Reusable web signing forms with a public URL; submissions read out to trigger downstream onboarding or fulfillment. Databases Top-level namespaces that scope containers and throughput provisioning. Widgets is specific to Adobe Sign and Databases to Azure Cosmos DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
MegaSign Bulk-send parent objects that fan one document out to many recipients; child agreements are tracked individually. Containers The unit of partitioning and throughput; each container maps to a synced collection. MegaSign is specific to Adobe Sign and Containers to Azure Cosmos DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Account users; provisioned and updated two-way from an HR system or identity provider. Items (JSON documents) Schema-flexible JSON records read and written during sync; nested structures are flattened or mapped as needed. Users is specific to Adobe Sign and Items (JSON documents) to Azure Cosmos DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Organizational groups that scope sharing and settings; synced from org structure or an IdP. Partition keys Determine data distribution and must be included on writes for the sync to route items correctly. Groups is specific to Adobe Sign and Partition keys to Azure Cosmos DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Agreements The core e-signature transaction; created and sent from other systems, then read back for status (out-for-signature, signed, cancelled) and the completed PDF. Change feed entries Ordered record of inserts and updates per partition, consumed for incremental sync. Agreements is specific to Adobe Sign and Change feed entries to Azure Cosmos DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adobe Sign and Azure Cosmos DB

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.

Adobe Sign Azure Cosmos DB Sub-second propagation

DetectionAdobe Sign notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (REST v6 webhook subscriptions) fire near-real-time on agreement events such as created, action requested, completed, and cancelled.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Azure Cosmos DB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Azure Cosmos DB Adobe Sign Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Azure Cosmos DB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Built-in change feed exposing inserts and updates in order within each partition key range.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adobe Sign: Per-user throttling at minute, hour, and day tiers shared between web UI and API traffic; exceeding a tier returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Exponential backoff with jitter is recommended.
