Why teams connect Attio and D2l Brightspace
Keep the people who own accounts in Attio in step with the workforce records in D2l Brightspace, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.
Attio runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in D2l Brightspace. D2l Brightspace is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.
Stacksync syncs People, Companies, Users, Deals in Attio with Enrollments, Org Units, Grades, Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) in D2l Brightspace field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so D2l Brightspace stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Attio keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.
Common use cases
- 01 Mirror lists and list entries into a database for pipeline reporting beyond the in-app views.
- 02 Run a two-way dual-run when migrating to Attio from another CRM.
- 03 Write Grades reconciled in a warehouse back onto Brightspace grade objects, and read grade values out for transcript and completion reporting.
- 04 Provision Org Units such as course offerings and sections, then enroll learners from an operational database when a cohort or class is created upstream.
Common sync patterns
New team members provisioned when they are hired
When D2l Brightspace records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Attio, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.
Ownership and territory follow the org chart
When a person changes team, manager, or region in D2l Brightspace, their accounts and territory assignments in Attio update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.
Deactivate access when someone leaves
When D2l Brightspace marks a worker as departed, the matching user in Attio is flagged or deactivated, so former employees do not keep CRM access after their last day.
What you can sync between Attio and D2l Brightspace
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.
| Attio objects | D2l Brightspace objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. | Users User accounts in the Learning Platform (lp) component; created, read, updated, and deleted through the Valence API and typically synced two-way with an SIS or HRIS. | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. | |
| Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. | Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) Course content structure plus per-user completion; progress is read into a warehouse and topics can be created and updated via the API. | Companies is specific to Attio and Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Deals Pipeline records; read out for revenue reporting and written to from automation. | Quizzes Quiz objects and per-user attempts and results; attempt data is read out for engagement and completion analytics. | Deals is specific to Attio and Quizzes to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. | Assignments (Dropbox) Dropbox folders, submissions, and feedback; submission and evaluation data is read into reporting systems and feedback can be written back. | Workspaces is specific to Attio and Assignments (Dropbox) to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Custom objects Workspace-defined objects that behave like standard ones in the API. | Groups and Sections Group categories, groups, and section membership within an org unit; enrollments are read and written to keep cohort assignments aligned. | Custom objects is specific to Attio and Groups and Sections to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. | Enrollments Links between Users and Org Units; enroll/unenroll and batch-enrollment routes let rosters be written from an upstream system and read back for reporting. | People is specific to Attio and Enrollments to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Attio and D2l Brightspace
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.

Rate-limit considerations
- Attio: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
- D2l Brightspace: Per-caller token-bucket credit scheme; each route costs credits, responses carry X-Rate-Limit-Remaining, and over-quota calls return HTTP 429. D2L can adjust per-route credit costs.

FAQ
Attio and D2l Brightspace integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Attio and D2l Brightspace: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Attio's Users and Companies), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Attio: Object coverage limited to the six listed entries (People, Companies, Users, Deals, Workspaces, custom objects); anything else requires emailing Stacksync. D2l Brightspace: The API is served per tenant from the institution's own Brightspace host (https://{host}/d2l/api/), so each customer has a distinct base URL and version set. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Attio and D2l Brightspace without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Attio and D2l Brightspace records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Attio and D2l Brightspace connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Attio–D2l Brightspace integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Attio and D2l Brightspace. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Attio: Webhooks on record and list-entry events, with polling as a fallback. On D2l Brightspace: Polling Valence endpoints with date/bookmark filters, differential Brightspace Data Sets (BDS) bulk exports for changed rows via the Data Hub, and Brightspace Data Streams webhooks (xAPI activity events) for near-real-time signals. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
