Why teams connect Atlassian and Jobvite

Keep the people, teams, and status that Atlassian and Jobvite share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.

Each tool in Atlassian keeps its own list of who can use it: users, members, or agents, along with the team they sit on and whether they are still active. Jobvite is the authoritative record of the same people as employees, with their department, manager, and employment status. When those two are connected only by manual account admin or a periodic export, the work tools drift: new hires wait days for access, team and manager changes never catch up, and people who have left keep standing accounts.

Stacksync syncs Issue Comments, Attachments, Custom Fields, Workflows and Statuses in Atlassian with New Hire, Employee, Attachment, Offer in Jobvite bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Jobvite creates or updates the matching user in Atlassian within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Atlassian captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Jobvite in whichever direction you configure.

Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps its own extras; only the shared facts, who a person is, which team they belong to, and whether their access should be on, are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep Jira and a second tracker (for example a customer's Jira instance) aligned during co-delivery projects.
  • 02 Sync Confluence page metadata into a knowledge index so other tools can link to current documentation.
  • 03 Consolidate Applications, Offers, and Workflow Status into a warehouse for time-to-fill and funnel reporting across every requisition.
  • 04 Sync Employee roster data into Jobvite with POST /employee to power employee-referral matching and internal-mobility postings.

Common sync patterns

Org and team structure kept current

Department, team, and reporting-line changes from Jobvite keep the groups, queues, or projects in Atlassian assigned to the right people.

Where Atlassian routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org

When someone changes teams or managers in Jobvite, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Atlassian update to match, so work reaches whoever holds the role now.

Onboarding: access ready on day one

A new hire recorded in Jobvite creates the matching user in Atlassian with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.

What you can sync between Atlassian and Jobvite

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 Jobvite objects How this pairing syncs
Attachments Files on issues mirrored to paired records where needed. Attachment Resumes, cover letters, and files attached to a candidate; synced out to object storage or a document management system. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Jira Projects Containers that scope issues, workflows, and permissions for a sync. Workflow Status The pipeline stage per application (Screen, Interview, Offer, Hired); updated through POST /candidate/updateCandidates to advance records. Jira Projects is specific to Atlassian and Workflow Status to Jobvite — 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. New Hire Hired-candidate records surfaced in the candidate feed and via the candidate hired webhook; commonly written into an HRIS or onboarding tool. Boards and Sprints is specific to Atlassian and New Hire to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Issue Comments Threaded discussion synced into linked tickets in external systems. Employee Employee roster pushed through POST /employee (Onboard sync), used for referral matching and internal-mobility job postings. Issue Comments is specific to Atlassian and Employee to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields Instance-specific fields (customfield IDs) that carry most business-specific data in syncs. Offer Offer state tied to an application (extended, accepted, declined); read out for offer-acceptance reporting and written to downstream comp or HR systems. Custom Fields is specific to Atlassian and Offer to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflows and Statuses Status transitions mapped to stages in the paired system. Candidate Read from the candidate feed (GET /candidate) and written back via POST /candidate/updateCandidates to change status, notes, and disposition on each record. Workflows and Statuses is specific to Atlassian and Candidate to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Atlassian and Jobvite

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 Jobvite 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 Jobvite through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Jobvite Atlassian Sub-second propagation

DetectionJobvite notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Jobvite: Roughly 15 requests per minute and 850 per hour, reset at midnight Pacific, with per-endpoint daily caps (e.g. 20,000/day candidate GET/PUT, 500/day employee sync); 429 on exceed.
