Why teams connect Amazon S3 and Attio

Keep the paperwork with the relationship: Attio and Amazon S3 share every customer's records and files in real time, in both directions.

Attio holds the customer relationship as structured records; Amazon S3 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 Done by hand, files drift away from the records they belong to and copies fall out of date.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 People, Companies, Users, Deals in Attio aligned with Object versions, Prefixes (folders), Multipart uploads, Buckets in Amazon S3, in real time. A new account or deal can open its own folder in Amazon S3; a document filed in Amazon S3 can surface as a link and metadata on the matching record in Attio; and records from Attio can be written into Amazon S3 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 Run a two-way dual-run when migrating to Attio from another CRM.
  • 02 Sync companies, people, and deals with Postgres so ops teams enrich and update CRM records with SQL.
  • 03 Mirror Objects under a given Bucket and prefix into another bucket, region, or a warehouse external stage for backup or downstream processing.
  • 04 Trigger a database or ERP record update the moment an S3 Event Notification fires an object-created event, for example when a partner drops an EDI or invoice file into an inbound prefix.

Common sync patterns

Documents linked back to the record

A contract, proposal, or signed agreement filed in Amazon S3 surfaces as a link on the matching record in Attio, so the customer's paperwork sits with the relationship instead of a shared drive.

CRM records archived into storage

Records from Attio are written into Amazon S3 as files or objects on the schedule you set, giving you a durable copy for backup, retention, and compliance without an export to run by hand.

Document status on the record

Metadata kept in Amazon S3, such as document type, review state, or whether an agreement is signed, updates a field on the matching record in Attio, so people working the account see where the paperwork stands without opening storage.

What you can sync between Amazon S3 and Attio

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.

Amazon S3 objects Attio objects How this pairing syncs
Multipart uploads In-progress large-object uploads assembled from parts; objects above ~100 MB (required above 5 GB) are written this way, and incomplete uploads persist until completed or aborted. People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. Multipart uploads is specific to Amazon S3 and People to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets Top-level, region-scoped containers that hold objects; enumerated to discover the namespaces and prefixes a sync should cover. Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. Buckets is specific to Amazon S3 and Companies to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Objects Files stored under a key; content is read with GET and written with PUT, and each object's key/size/ETag/LastModified is the unit indexed into a database. Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Objects is specific to Amazon S3 and Users to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object metadata System metadata (Content-Type, size, ETag, LastModified) plus user-defined x-amz-meta-* headers; user metadata is fixed at write time and only changeable by rewriting the object. Deals Pipeline records; read out for revenue reporting and written to from automation. Object metadata is specific to Amazon S3 and Deals to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object tags Up to 10 key-value tags per object, mutable in place via the tagging API independent of content, so classification and retention labels sync two-way without rewriting files. Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Object tags is specific to Amazon S3 and Workspaces to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object versions When bucket versioning is enabled every write creates a new version ID; prior versions and delete markers are readable for history and audit syncs. Custom objects Workspace-defined objects that behave like standard ones in the API. Object versions is specific to Amazon S3 and Custom objects to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon S3 and Attio

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.

Amazon S3 Attio Sub-second propagation

DetectionAmazon S3 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge.

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

Attio Amazon S3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionAttio notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on record and list-entry events, with polling as a fallback.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Amazon S3 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon S3: S3 sustains at least 3,500 PUT/COPY/POST/DELETE and 5,500 GET/HEAD requests per second per partitioned prefix and scales higher automatically; bursts can return HTTP 503 SlowDown while it repartitions.
  • Attio: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.

How the Amazon S3 and Attio connectors work

Amazon S3

Integration surface
S3 REST API (also via AWS SDKs and the S3-compatible endpoint)
Authentication
AWS IAM credentials — an access key ID and secret access key signed with AWS Signature Version 4; supports temporary STS credentials and cross-account IAM roles
Change detection
S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge; there is no modified-since query, so polling relies on each object's LastModified from ListObjectsV2
