Why teams connect Atlassian and Gatekeeper

Stop re-entering the same information in Atlassian and Gatekeeper: Stacksync keeps the records they share consistent in real time, in both directions.

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 Custom Fields, Workflows and Statuses, Users and Groups, Confluence Pages in Atlassian with Files, Workflow form data, Custom data groups, Users in Gatekeeper 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 Sync Confluence page metadata into a knowledge index so other tools can link to current documentation.
  • 02 Mirror Jira projects into a SQL database for engineering throughput and SLA reporting.
  • 03 Stream workflow-form data - intake requests, vendor onboarding, risk assessments - into an operational database for cycle-time and compliance reporting.
  • 04 Write contract or vendor records into Gatekeeper when a deal closes in the CRM to kick off downstream procurement and legal workflows.

Common sync patterns

Where Gatekeeper is where the team documents or plans: keep its data fed

Information that originates in Atlassian stays current in Gatekeeper instead of going stale after a one-time paste.

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.

What you can sync between Atlassian and Gatekeeper

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 Gatekeeper objects How this pairing syncs
Custom Fields Instance-specific fields (customfield IDs) that carry most business-specific data in syncs. Custom data groups Customer-configured custom fields and data groups; because the JSON:API and its docs are dynamic, any custom data added in Configuration exposes the same read/write endpoints as the standard objects and syncs the same way. Custom Fields is specific to Atlassian and Custom data groups to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflows and Statuses Status transitions mapped to stages in the paired system. Users Gatekeeper user and team records governed by role-based access; read to map contract and vendor owners, approvers, and internal contacts to CRM or HR records. Workflows and Statuses is specific to Atlassian and Users to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Groups Assignees and reporters matched to identities in other tools. Categories The classification taxonomy applied to contracts and vendors (type, department, business unit); synced so categorization stays consistent between Gatekeeper and downstream reporting or ERP dimensions. Users and Groups is specific to Atlassian and Categories to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Confluence Pages Documentation content readable and writable through the Confluence REST API. Contracts The core contract records holding value, key dates, renewal terms, status, type, owner, and the linked vendor; created, read, updated, and deleted so contract data moves two-way between Gatekeeper and a database, ERP, or CRM. Confluence Pages is specific to Atlassian and Contracts to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Confluence Spaces Namespaces that scope page syncs and permissions. Vendors (Suppliers) Company records for counterparties and suppliers with onboarding status, compliance, risk, contacts, and spend; read and written to keep vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. Confluence Spaces is specific to Atlassian and Vendors (Suppliers) to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Jira Issues The central work item, synced two-way with CRMs, support desks, and other trackers. Files Document files attached to contracts and vendors - executed PDFs, certificates, and compliance evidence; read to pull signed files and evidence out, or written to push generated documents in. Jira Issues is specific to Atlassian and Files to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Atlassian and Gatekeeper

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 Gatekeeper 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.

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

Gatekeeper Atlassian Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gatekeeper for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Gatekeeper: Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.

How the Atlassian and Gatekeeper connectors work

Atlassian

Integration surface
REST APIs per product (Jira Cloud and Confluence Cloud)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (3LO) for apps or API tokens with basic auth for scripts

Capabilities

Gatekeeper

Integration surface
RESTful API following the JSON:API specification, tenant-scoped with interactive docs at {tenant}.gatekeeperhq.com/api_docs and a published Postman collection. The API is dynamic: it exposes the standard Contract and Vendor objects plus any custom data groups and workflow-form data configured in the tenant.
Authentication
API keys created and managed under Configuration > API Keys and passed as a token; each key carries granular per-endpoint permissions set to read-only or write, so access is scoped per object. Multiple keys can be issued and revoked independently.
Change detection
No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log; detect changes by polling the JSON:API list endpoints filtered and sorted on updated-at timestamps. Gatekeeper's own event automation - Workflow Engine phase transitions and Interconnect process orchestration - runs inside the platform rather than as a subscribable webhook stream.

Rate limits
Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.
