Why teams connect Attio and Ironclad

Sync what happens in Ironclad 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 Ironclad 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 Workflow Documents, Workflows, Records, Entities in Ironclad to Custom objects, People, Companies, Users in Attio with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Ironclad update the matching contact or account in Attio, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Ironclad can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Pull executed contract PDFs from Records attachments into a document store or archive as each workflow completes.
  • 02 Two-way sync Ironclad Records with a warehouse or ERP so executed-contract value, counterparty, renewal dates, and status stay current without manual re-keying.
  • 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 Ironclad supplies contact or company data

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

Where Ironclad processes payments

Charges, refunds, and subscription changes appear on the account in Attio, so revenue context lives with the relationship.

Where Ironclad can store CRM context: fields kept current

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

What you can sync between Attio and Ironclad

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 Ironclad objects How this pairing syncs
Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Obligations Post-signature commitments, milestones, and renewal dates tied to contracts; synced two-way to drive renewal, compliance, and finance reporting in downstream systems. Users is specific to Attio and Obligations to Ironclad — 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. Webhooks Event subscriptions that push workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment changes to Stacksync in near real time; created, listed, and deleted through the API across 40+ event types. Deals is specific to Attio and Webhooks to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Workflow Approvals Per-workflow approval requests and their state; read to report approval status and cycle time, and status changes arrive live through the workflow_approval_status_changed event. Workspaces is specific to Attio and Workflow Approvals to Ironclad — 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. Signature Packets The e-signature packets on a workflow (sent, signatures collected, fully signed); read to track signing progress, with packet events delivered by webhook for real-time status. Custom objects is specific to Attio and Signature Packets to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. Workflow Documents Draft and executed documents attached to a workflow; retrieved to pull generated or signed files out into a document store or archive. People is specific to Attio and Workflow Documents to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. Workflows The core unit of Ironclad: a live contract process (NDA, MSA, order form) moving through creation, review, approval, and signature. Launched via POST, updated via PATCH, and read for status, so contract processes move two-way between Ironclad and a database, CRM, or ERP. Companies is specific to Attio and Workflows to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Attio and Ironclad

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

Ironclad Attio Sub-second propagation

DetectionIronclad notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing.

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.
  • Ironclad: Limits are enforced per account per minute by endpoint: GET Workflows 400 and POST/PATCH Workflows 40; GET Records 600 and POST/PATCH Records 200; GET Entities 600 and POST/PATCH Entities 200; Webhooks 600; all other endpoints 800. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429, and Ironclad recommends exponential backoff with jitter.

Ironclad

Integration surface
REST/JSON Public API (CLM API) at https://na1.ironcladapp.com/public/api/v1 (NA1 and EU1 regions plus a demo/sandbox), with a native Webhooks subscription API; described by an OpenAPI 3.1 spec.
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 - Authorization Code grant (PKCE for public clients) and Client Credentials grant for server-to-server; access tokens are Bearer, expire after 6 hours, and every endpoint is gated by a resource scope. The legacy static API bearer token was deprecated on 2024-11-22.
Change detection
Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing endpoint up to 10 times over about 13.6 hours with exponential backoff. Otherwise poll the list endpoints by last-updated. There is no database change-data-capture log.
