Why teams connect Attio and Gainsight

Sync what happens in Gainsight with the customer records in Attio, in real time and in both directions.

The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever Gainsight holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.

Stacksync connects Relationship, CTA (Call to Action), Scorecard Fact, Timeline Activity in Gainsight to Users, Deals, Workspaces, Custom objects in Attio with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Gainsight update the matching contact or account in Attio, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Gainsight can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read Timeline Activities and Success Plan objectives into a reporting database for churn, QBR, and CSM-productivity dashboards.
  • 02 Keep Relationship records aligned with a billing system or ERP so multi-product customers map to the correct contracts and invoices.
  • 03 Run a two-way dual-run when migrating to Attio from another CRM.
  • 04 Sync companies, people, and deals with Postgres so ops teams enrich and update CRM records with SQL.

Common sync patterns

Where Gainsight can store CRM context: fields kept current

Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Attio sync into Gainsight, so people working there have the context without switching tools.

Where Gainsight handles support or shared inboxes

Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Attio, so sales sees open issues before the next call.

Where Gainsight supplies contact or company data

Enriched fields land directly on records in Attio, and refreshes keep them from going stale.

What you can sync between Attio and Gainsight

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 Gainsight objects How this pairing syncs
Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. Company Customer/account master in Gainsight CS; two-way synced with CRM and warehouse customer tables to keep ARR, owner, and renewal fields aligned. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Custom objects Workspace-defined objects that behave like standard ones in the API. Custom Objects Org-specific MDA tables with the __gc suffix; discoverable via the Describe API so field mappings can be generated automatically. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Relationship Sub-units within a company for multi-product or multi-team accounts; synced so each maps to the right contract in billing or an ERP. Users is specific to Attio and Relationship to Gainsight — 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. CTA (Call to Action) Risk and expansion alerts that drive CSM plays; often synced to ticketing or project tools so follow-up work is tracked where teams operate. Deals is specific to Attio and CTA (Call to Action) to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Scorecard Fact Health scores and measures per Company or Relationship; usage metrics from a warehouse are written in so scores reflect live telemetry. Workspaces is specific to Attio and Scorecard Fact to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. Timeline Activity Logged calls, emails, and notes; usually read out into a reporting database for QBR and churn analysis. People is specific to Attio and Timeline Activity to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Attio and Gainsight

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.

Attio Gainsight Sub-second propagation

DetectionAttio notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on record and list-entry events, with polling as a fallback.

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

Gainsight Attio Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gainsight for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Attio: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
  • Gainsight: Synchronous APIs are capped near 100 calls/min and 50,000/day; the asynchronous Bulk API allows 10 calls/hour and 100/day. Both are fixed-window limits, and the applicable per-hour and per-day limits are returned in the x-ratelimit-limit response header.
