Why teams connect Attio and Marketo

Keep the people you sell to and the people you market to in one shared view: Attio and Marketo sync contacts, accounts, and engagement in real time, in both directions.

Attio owns the customer relationship and the pipeline; Marketo runs the campaigns, audiences, and outreach that fill it. The two overlap on the same people and companies — a lead in one system is a subscriber, a segment member, an event registrant, or an ad audience in the other. When that overlap is bridged by CSV exports or a nightly job, sales works from lists that no longer match reality and marketing keeps targeting people whose status has already moved on.

Stacksync syncs People, Companies, Users, Deals in Attio with Activities and Lead Changes, Static Lists, Programs and Program Members, Smart Campaigns in Marketo field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — Attio can own account and opportunity status while Marketo owns engagement and campaign membership — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Run a two-way dual-run when migrating to Attio from another CRM.
  • 02 Sync companies, people, and deals with Postgres so ops teams enrich and update CRM records with SQL.
  • 03 Sync Opportunities and Opportunity Roles into Marketo so revenue and pipeline data can drive account-aware nurture and reporting.
  • 04 Two-way sync Marketo Leads with a Postgres or warehouse table, matched on email, so RevOps queries and updates marketing profiles in SQL while marketers keep working in Marketo.

Common sync patterns

Lead and lifecycle status agree

Status, stage, or score set in one system updates the matching record in the other, so a lead marketing is still nurturing is not worked as sales-ready, and a closed account stops receiving prospecting.

Segments and audiences follow the CRM

Where Marketo builds lists, segments, or ad audiences, membership tracks the fields and stage owned in Attio, so who receives a campaign reflects current pipeline reality instead of a stale export.

Where Marketo generates leads: hand-off without re-keying

New leads or responders captured in Marketo flow into Attio assigned and deduplicated, so nothing sits in a marketing list waiting for someone to export it.

What you can sync between Attio and Marketo

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 Marketo objects How this pairing syncs
Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. Companies Company records linked to Leads via a company link field; read and upserted through /rest/v1/companies.json, typically mastered in a CRM or ERP and written into Marketo for account context. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Custom objects Workspace-defined objects that behave like standard ones in the API. Custom Objects Auxiliary data tables described via /rest/v1/customobjects.json and read/written via /rest/v1/customobjects/{apiName}.json, linked to Leads by a dedupe/link field so campaigns branch on records like purchases or subscriptions. 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.
Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Opportunities and Opportunity Roles Revenue objects synced via /rest/v1/opportunities.json and /rest/v1/opportunities/roles.json; roles associate an opportunity with a Lead, so pipeline data can drive nurture and scoring. Workspaces is specific to Attio and Opportunities and Opportunity Roles to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. Activities and Lead Changes Engagement feed (opens, clicks, form fills, Data Value Changes) read via GET /rest/v1/activities.json using a paging token from /rest/v1/activities/pagingtoken.json (sinceDatetime), plus Get Lead Changes and Get Deleted Leads; read-only, also available via async Bulk Activity Extract. People is specific to Attio and Activities and Lead Changes to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Static Lists Named static lists; read via /rest/v1/lists.json, with Leads added or removed via POST and DELETE on /rest/v1/lists/{listId}/leads.json to control campaign membership from lifecycle logic computed downstream. Users is specific to Attio and Static Lists to Marketo — 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. Programs and Program Members Marketing programs read via /rest/v1/programs.json; program membership and member status managed via /rest/v1/leads/programs/{programId}.json and the program status endpoint for acquisition and attribution reporting. Deals is specific to Attio and Programs and Program Members to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Attio and Marketo

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

Marketo Attio Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Marketo for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling: Get Lead Changes and Get Lead Activities from a paging token seeded by a sinceDatetime, plus Get Deleted Leads, or Bulk Extract filtered on.

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.
  • Marketo: Interactive calls are capped at 100 per 20 seconds (error 606) and a maximum of 10 concurrent calls (error 615) per instance, neither increasable; a default daily quota of 50,000 calls (increasable, resets midnight CST) applies. Bulk Extract shares a 500 MB/day export quota across data types with at most 2 concurrent jobs and 10 queued.

Marketo

Integration surface
Marketo REST API (JSON over HTTPS) for Leads, Companies, Opportunities, Custom Objects, Activities, Lists, Programs, and Campaigns, plus an asynchronous Bulk Import (leads) and Bulk Extract (leads/activities/program members/custom objects) API and an Asset REST API for emails, forms, and landing pages
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client_credentials (2-legged): GET the Identity URL /oauth/token?grant_type=client_credentials with a Custom Service client_id and client_secret to receive an access token valid for 3600 seconds, then send it as Authorization: Bearer on each call. The instance base URL is https://{munchkinId}.mktorest.com; passing the token as an access_token query parameter is deprecated (removal July 31, 2026).
Change detection
Polling: Get Lead Changes and Get Lead Activities from a paging token seeded by a sinceDatetime, plus Get Deleted Leads, or Bulk Extract filtered on createdAt/updatedAt. Marketo's Webhooks are Smart Campaign flow-step outbound HTTP calls to a URL, not a general record-change subscription, so there is no push feed of arbitrary CRUD.
