Why teams connect Auth0 and Recurly

Keep the people who can act on financial records in Recurly matched to their identities in Auth0, so access is provisioned, updated, and revoked in real time.

Recurly runs the money — the ledgers, invoices, budgets, and payments — and every one of those actions is taken by a person with a login. Auth0 is where those people and their access actually live: who is employed, what team they belong to, and what they are allowed to do. The two systems rarely share customers or transactions, but they share the one thing that governs both — the user. When that overlap is maintained by hand, a departed employee keeps finance access for weeks and a new hire waits on a ticket to get any.

Stacksync keeps Plans, Invoices, Transactions, Line Items in Recurly aligned with Log Events, Users, Roles, Organizations in Auth0, field by field and in real time. A person added, moved, or deactivated on the identity side updates their matching user in the finance system within seconds, with the role or permission set mapped from the group they belong to. Direction is yours to set: lead provisioning from the directory, or let an HR-owned finance record drive the downstream accounts.

For a finance team, that alignment is an audit control rather than a convenience. When the user list in the books matches the identity source of truth, segregation-of-duties and access reviews start from data that is already correct instead of an export that was current last quarter.

Common use cases

  • 01 Trigger revenue-recognition or ERP entries when new_subscription and canceled_subscription webhooks fire.
  • 02 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 03 Provision and deprovision Users and Organization Members from an HRIS or CRM — create accounts and assign Roles on hire, delete on offboarding.
  • 04 Replicate Roles and Resource Server scopes into a database to audit which Users hold which permissions across every Application.

Common sync patterns

One user roster across both systems

People, their status, and their contact details stay matched between Recurly and Auth0, so the finance system's login list reflects who actually works here instead of drifting out of date.

Group and role membership drives finance permissions

A person's group or role in Auth0 maps to their permission set in Recurly, so who can approve, post, or view is governed from one place instead of maintained twice.

Access reviews backed by live data

Because the user list in Recurly matches the identity source in Auth0 in real time, access certifications and SOX-style reviews start from current membership rather than a stale spreadsheet.

What you can sync between Auth0 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.

Auth0 objects Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Clients (Applications) Registered applications and their metadata under /api/v2/clients; mirrored to a database for app and credential inventories. 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). Clients (Applications) is specific to Auth0 and Billing Info to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Resource Servers (APIs) API definitions and their scopes; synced so permission catalogs used for access reviews stay current. Measured Units and Usage Metered-billing units; usage records are posted to a subscription before each bill run for consumption-based pricing. Resource Servers (APIs) is specific to Auth0 and Measured Units and Usage to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Log Events Tenant events (logins, signups, failed logins, admin changes) from /api/v2/logs; read-only, streamed into a warehouse for security analytics. 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. Log Events is specific to Auth0 and Accounts to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Core identity records with profile fields plus user_metadata and app_metadata; synced two-way (create, update, delete) via /api/v2/users. Credentials are never returned. Subscriptions Recurring subscription records tied to an Account and a Plan, with state, term, and next-bill date. Core object, synced two-way to drive provisioning and reporting. Users is specific to Auth0 and Subscriptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Roles RBAC role definitions and their permissions; synced with a database to audit which users hold which access, and assigned to Users from either side. Plans The product and pricing catalog (plan codes, intervals, add-ons); usually mastered in Recurly and read out, or mirrored from a product database. Roles is specific to Auth0 and Plans to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations B2B customer tenants under /api/v2/organizations; synced two-way with a CRM or customer database to keep account records aligned with Auth0 orgs. Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Organizations is specific to Auth0 and Invoices to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Auth0 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.

Auth0 Recurly Sub-second propagation

DetectionAuth0 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Event Streams and Log Streams deliver near-real-time user.created/updated/deleted and tenant events to a custom webhook or Amazon EventBridge.

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

Recurly Auth0 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 Auth0 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Auth0: Per-tenant limit of about 15 Management API requests/second (bursts to 50) on paid tenants; X-RateLimit-* headers and HTTP 429 signal throttling.
  • 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.

How the Auth0 and Recurly connectors work

Auth0

Integration surface
Management API v2 (REST); Authentication API issues the access token
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client credentials from a machine-to-machine application; scoped Bearer JWT where each operation needs its own scope (e.g. read:users, create:users, update:users) or returns 403
Change detection
Event Streams and Log Streams deliver near-real-time user.created/updated/deleted and tenant events to a custom webhook or Amazon EventBridge; polling falls back to the Get Users search filtered on updated_at
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Per-tenant limit of about 15 Management API requests/second (bursts to 50) on paid tenants; X-RateLimit-* headers and HTTP 429 signal throttling

Recurly

Integration surface
REST API (V3, date-versioned; legacy V2 XML API also exists)
Authentication
API key via HTTP Basic auth (key as username, blank password); keys are per-site, with separate sandbox and production keys
Change detection
Webhooks (JSON or XML, one format per endpoint) for account, subscription, payment, and invoice events, plus incremental polling of list endpoints sorted by updated_at with begin_time/end_time filters
Capabilities
