Why teams connect Auth0 and Salesforce

Keep the people Salesforce and Auth0 both track in agreement in real time: the internal users who own records in Salesforce, and the customer login accounts in Auth0.

A CRM and an identity system usually describe different populations. Salesforce tracks customers, contacts, and the deals in motion; Auth0 governs who is allowed to sign in and what they can reach. Where the two meet is people. The reps who own records in Salesforce are the same employees Auth0 provisions and disables, and when Auth0 also runs the login accounts for your product, the customers in Salesforce are the same users Auth0 authenticates. Left unconnected, a departure in Auth0 leaves stale ownership sitting in Salesforce, and a signup in Auth0 never reaches the account it belongs to.

Stacksync syncs Campaigns, Tasks and Events, Products and Price Books, Custom Objects in Salesforce with Organization Members, Connections, Clients (Applications), Resource Servers (APIs) in Auth0 in real time and in both directions, matching on email or an external ID and mapping field by field. You decide which system owns which fields, and new users, role and group changes, deactivations, and account status move within seconds instead of waiting on a quarterly access review or a manual export.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write product usage metrics computed in a warehouse onto Account and Contact fields so reps see adoption signals on the record.
  • 02 Trigger provisioning or billing changes in an operational database when an Opportunity moves to closed-won.
  • 03 Sync Organizations and their Connections into a customer database so B2B account records stay aligned with Auth0 tenants.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Users, including user_metadata and app_metadata, with a Postgres database so internal tools read and update profiles in SQL while Auth0 stays the login source of truth.

Common sync patterns

Group and entitlement membership as CRM fields

Membership of a directory group or an entitlement in Auth0 maps to fields in Salesforce, such as product tier, plan, or internal team, so segmentation reflects real access rather than a manual guess.

Where a closed deal should provision access: Salesforce drives Auth0

A won or activated customer in Salesforce can create or update the corresponding user or account in Auth0, so provisioning starts from the CRM record instead of a separate ticket.

Where Auth0 governs your workforce: CRM users kept current

New employees in Auth0 become active users in Salesforce with the right role, and group or department changes update their access and team, so the CRM's user list matches the directory without an admin re-keying it.

What you can sync between Auth0 and Salesforce

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 Salesforce objects How this pairing syncs
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. Campaigns Marketing membership data; read out for attribution analysis in the warehouse. Organizations is specific to Auth0 and Campaigns to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organization Members Membership records linking Users to Organizations with roles; written to provision and deprovision access as accounts change. Tasks and Events Activity records; usually read-only in syncs to feed activity reporting. Organization Members is specific to Auth0 and Tasks and Events to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Connections Identity-provider configs (database, social, enterprise SAML/OIDC); typically read out to inventory how each tenant authenticates. Products and Price Books Catalog and pricing data; commonly mastered in an ERP and written into Salesforce. Connections is specific to Auth0 and Products and Price Books to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Clients (Applications) Registered applications and their metadata under /api/v2/clients; mirrored to a database for app and credential inventories. Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated. Clients (Applications) is specific to Auth0 and Custom Objects to Salesforce — 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. Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP. Resource Servers (APIs) is specific to Auth0 and Accounts to Salesforce — 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. Contacts People linked to Accounts; synced two-way with marketing, support, and warehouse person records. Log Events is specific to Auth0 and Contacts to Salesforce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Auth0 and Salesforce

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

Salesforce Auth0 Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Salesforce are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting).

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.
  • Salesforce: Daily API request allocations vary by edition and license count.

How the Auth0 and Salesforce 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

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

Salesforce

Integration surface
REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs
Authentication
OAuth login via a Salesforce user (browser-based authorization flow); requires "API Enabled" permission for polling mode, plus "Author Apex" and "Customize Application" OR "Modify All Data" for trigger mode
Change detection
Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting)
