Why teams connect Atlassian and BetterContact

Flow BetterContact data into Atlassian in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

BetterContact is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Atlassian, so Atlassian always reflects the current state of BetterContact — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Two tools in the daily stack often hold overlapping information: the same people, the same companies, or the same pieces of work, described twice. The tools do different jobs, so consolidating is not the answer; the overlap just needs to stop drifting.

Stacksync syncs Confluence Spaces, Jira Issues, Jira Projects, Boards and Sprints in Atlassian with Company, Lead Finder Search, Enrichment Request, Enriched Contact in BetterContact in real time. You choose which records overlap, map the fields that should match, and pick a direction or let changes flow both ways. From then on, an update made in either tool is reflected in the other within seconds, without exports or copy-paste.

Because the sync is field-level, each tool keeps its own extras; only the shared data is held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Jira projects into a SQL database for engineering throughput and SLA reporting.
  • 02 Create Jira issues from records in other systems, such as onboarding tasks generated from a closed-won CRM deal.
  • 03 Enrich new CRM leads with verified emails and mobile numbers as they are created, writing results back to the CRM record.
  • 04 Backfill a warehouse of contacts with waterfall enrichment across 20+ data providers.

Common sync patterns

Handoffs between teams

When work started in one tool continues in the other, the shared fields travel with it automatically.

Where both tools track people or companies: one consistent record

Contact and company details corrected in either tool update the other, so nobody works from the old version.

Where one tool produces events: mirror them in the other

Payments, replies, messages, or tickets created in one tool can create or update matching records in the other, keeping context in one place.

What you can sync between Atlassian and BetterContact

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.

Atlassian objects BetterContact objects How this pairing syncs
Jira Projects Containers that scope issues, workflows, and permissions for a sync. Enrichment Request Batch or single submissions of up to 100 contacts per request for waterfall enrichment. Jira Projects is specific to Atlassian and Enrichment Request to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Boards and Sprints Agile structures read to report on sprint contents and status. Enriched Contact Verified work emails and mobile numbers with job title, LinkedIn profile, location, and skills. Boards and Sprints is specific to Atlassian and Enriched Contact to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Issue Comments Threaded discussion synced into linked tickets in external systems. Company Company data returned with each contact: name, domain, HQ location, industry, employee count. Issue Comments is specific to Atlassian and Company to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attachments Files on issues mirrored to paired records where needed. Lead Finder Search Prospect discovery by people and company filters, returning enriched lead profiles. Attachments is specific to Atlassian and Lead Finder Search to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Atlassian and BetterContact

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.

Atlassian BetterContact Sub-second propagation

DetectionAtlassian notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on issue and page events, plus JQL polling on the updated timestamp for backfill.

DeliveryBetterContact does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: BetterContact's output flows back as field updates on the originating Atlassian records.

DetectionBetterContact notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Job-based delivery — enrichment results arrive by webhook push or polling of the results endpoint.

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