Why teams connect Affinity and Egnyte

Keep the paperwork with the relationship: Affinity and Egnyte share every customer's records and files in real time, in both directions.

Affinity holds the customer relationship as structured records; Egnyte holds the files that belong to those relationships, from contracts and proposals to signed agreements and statements of work. The two are linked in practice and disconnected in software: someone downloads a document, renames it, and uploads it to the right folder, or exports records out to storage for retention. Done by hand, files drift away from the records they belong to and copies fall out of date.

Stacksync keeps Reminders, Lists, List Entries, Persons in Affinity aligned with Events and Audit reports, Files, Folders, Users in Egnyte, in real time. A new account or deal can open its own folder in Egnyte; a document filed in Egnyte can surface as a link and metadata on the matching record in Affinity; and records from Affinity can be written into Egnyte as files or objects for backup, archival, and compliance. You choose which side owns what, and Stacksync keeps the two consistent as either one changes.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror deal-flow lists into a warehouse or BI tool for pipeline and portfolio reporting.
  • 02 Push enrichment data computed elsewhere into Affinity field values on list entries.
  • 03 Mirror folder Permissions from a directory or access-management system so entitlements stay consistent across teams.
  • 04 Stream Egnyte audit Events (file, login, permission, and Link changes) into a warehouse or SIEM for compliance and governance reporting.

Common sync patterns

One place for a customer's files

Attachments that accumulate against a record in Affinity collect in that customer's folder in Egnyte, so the full document history lives in one place and is reachable by anyone who needs it.

A folder per account or deal

When an account or deal is created in Affinity, a matching folder or container opens in Egnyte, named and organized the same way, so files have a home the moment they are needed.

Documents linked back to the record

A contract, proposal, or signed agreement filed in Egnyte surfaces as a link on the matching record in Affinity, so the customer's paperwork sits with the relationship instead of a shared drive.

What you can sync between Affinity and Egnyte

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.

Affinity objects Egnyte objects How this pairing syncs
Opportunities Deal records tracked on lists and synced with pipeline reporting. Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Opportunities is specific to Affinity and Groups to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Field Values Custom field data, either global or scoped to a list, mapped field-by-field in syncs. Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. Field Values is specific to Affinity and Permissions to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Notes Meeting and call notes synced for record-keeping in other systems. Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. Notes is specific to Affinity and Links to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Interactions Automatically captured emails and meetings, read for activity reporting. Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. Interactions is specific to Affinity and Metadata to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reminders Follow-up tasks associated with people and organizations. Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. Reminders is specific to Affinity and Events and Audit reports to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lists Pipelines (deal flow, fundraising, portfolio) that structure most Affinity data; syncs usually target a specific list. Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Lists is specific to Affinity and Files to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Affinity and Egnyte

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.

Affinity Egnyte Sub-second propagation

DetectionAffinity notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, supplemented by polling.

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

Egnyte Affinity Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Affinity: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
