Why teams connect Atlassian and Recurly

Connect the financial records in Recurly with the work happening in Atlassian, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.

Recurly holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Atlassian is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.

Stacksync keeps Subscriptions, Plans, Invoices, Transactions in Recurly and Issue Comments, Attachments, Custom Fields, Workflows and Statuses in Atlassian in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Atlassian keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Recurly is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.

There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 02 Sync Accounts and Subscriptions bi-directionally with Postgres so product and provisioning systems read live entitlement state and write plan or seat changes back to Recurly.
  • 03 Keep Jira and a second tracker (for example a customer's Jira instance) aligned during co-delivery projects.
  • 04 Sync Confluence page metadata into a knowledge index so other tools can link to current documentation.

Common sync patterns

Where Atlassian tracks people or companies: one identity

A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.

Where Atlassian handles customer conversations: billing context in view

Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Recurly next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.

Where Atlassian collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Recurly

Payment and charge activity flows into Recurly as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.

What you can sync between Atlassian and Recurly

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 Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Jira Issues The central work item, synced two-way with CRMs, support desks, and other trackers. Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Jira Issues is specific to Atlassian and Transactions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Jira Projects Containers that scope issues, workflows, and permissions for a sync. Line Items One-time charges and credits on an account outside a subscription; synced for accurate revenue and adjustment reporting. Jira Projects is specific to Atlassian and Line Items to Recurly — 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. Coupons and Redemptions Discount definitions and their application to accounts and subscriptions; read for discount and promotion analysis. Boards and Sprints is specific to Atlassian and Coupons and Redemptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Issue Comments Threaded discussion synced into linked tickets in external systems. Billing Info Tokenized payment method (card/ACH) on an account; written when onboarding customers and read for payment-health signals (never stores raw card numbers). Issue Comments is specific to Atlassian and Billing Info to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attachments Files on issues mirrored to paired records where needed. Measured Units and Usage Metered-billing units; usage records are posted to a subscription before each bill run for consumption-based pricing. Attachments is specific to Atlassian and Measured Units and Usage to Recurly — 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. Accounts Customer/billing entity records keyed by account_code; the anchor most subscriptions and invoices hang off. Synced two-way with CRM accounts or a customer database. Custom Fields is specific to Atlassian and Accounts to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Atlassian and Recurly

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

Recurly Atlassian Sub-second propagation

DetectionRecurly notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (JSON or XML, one format per endpoint) for account, subscription, payment, and invoice events, plus incremental polling of list endpoints.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Recurly: Production sites default to 1,000 requests/min with only GET requests counting toward the limit; sandbox sites 400/min with all requests counting; the limit is a sliding 5-minute window, X-RateLimit headers report the quota, and breaches return HTTP 429.
