Why teams connect Azure Active Directory and Gatekeeper
Keep the users, groups, and profile details that Gatekeeper and Azure Active Directory share consistent in real time, so who can work in Gatekeeper always matches who your directory in Azure Active Directory says belongs there.
Azure Active Directory is where a company records who its people are: their accounts, the groups and roles they hold, and the attributes attached to each one. Gatekeeper is where a slice of those same people do their work, as agents, members, or seats, and every one of them needs a matching account with the right access. When a directory and a productivity tool are maintained by hand, someone added, moved, or offboarded in one becomes a stale entry in the other within the hour.
Stacksync syncs Files, Workflow form data, Custom data groups, Users in Gatekeeper with Groups, Group memberships, Applications, Service principals in Azure Active Directory bi-directionally and in real time. A user created, renamed, moved between groups, or deactivated in either system updates the matching record in the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV uploads and nightly IT batch jobs.
That matters most at the edges of employment. When both systems agree on who has an account, which groups they belong to, and whether they are still active, granting access on day one and revoking it on the last day stops being a manual checklist that trails the directory.
Common use cases
- 01 Sync Vendors (Suppliers) with a CRM or ERP so counterparty, compliance, contact, and spend records match across the VCLM and the systems of record.
- 02 Push generated documents into Gatekeeper Files, or pull executed contract PDFs and compliance evidence out into a document store or archive.
- 03 Mirror Applications and Service principals into a database or CMDB to track app ownership and credential expiry.
- 04 Reconcile Entra ID Users and assignedLicenses with an ITSM or finance database to audit license allocation and reclaim unused seats.
Common sync patterns
Keep profile attributes current
A person's name, email, department, manager, or phone number corrected in either system updates the other, so the productivity tool shows the same details the directory holds of record.
Mirror group and role membership
Moving a user between groups or roles in Azure Active Directory updates their team, permission set, or seat in Gatekeeper, so what someone can do reflects where they sit in the directory.
One record per person
People matched across both systems on email or an external ID stay linked, so every account and action in Gatekeeper ties back to the right identity in Azure Active Directory.
What you can sync between Azure Active Directory and Gatekeeper
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.
| Azure Active Directory objects | Gatekeeper objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Users /users in Microsoft Graph; synced two-way — profile attributes, accountEnabled, and assignedLicenses are read out while provisioning writes (create, update, disable, delete) are pushed back. | Users Gatekeeper user and team records governed by role-based access; read to map contract and vendor owners, approvers, and internal contacts to CRM or HR records. | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. | |
| Devices /devices registered or joined to the tenant; typically read-only into asset and security databases. | Categories The classification taxonomy applied to contracts and vendors (type, department, business unit); synced so categorization stays consistent between Gatekeeper and downstream reporting or ERP dimensions. | Devices is specific to Azure Active Directory and Categories to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Groups /groups covering security and Microsoft 365 groups; created, updated, and deleted through Graph, and read into warehouses for entitlement reporting. | Contracts The core contract records holding value, key dates, renewal terms, status, type, owner, and the linked vendor; created, read, updated, and deleted so contract data moves two-way between Gatekeeper and a database, ERP, or CRM. | Groups is specific to Azure Active Directory and Contracts to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Group memberships Member and owner relationships on /groups/{id}/members; added and removed via the $ref endpoint and tracked for changes with delta query on $select=members. | Vendors (Suppliers) Company records for counterparties and suppliers with onboarding status, compliance, risk, contacts, and spend; read and written to keep vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. | Group memberships is specific to Azure Active Directory and Vendors (Suppliers) to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Applications App registrations under /applications; usually read into a database or CMDB for app ownership and credential-expiry tracking. | Files Document files attached to contracts and vendors - executed PDFs, certificates, and compliance evidence; read to pull signed files and evidence out, or written to push generated documents in. | Applications is specific to Azure Active Directory and Files to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Service principals /servicePrincipals (enterprise apps) plus appRoleAssignments; read for app inventory and access-posture reporting. | Workflow form data The structured data captured on Gatekeeper workflow forms (intake requests, vendor onboarding, risk assessments); exposed by the API since 2025 so form results sync into an operational database, not only contract and vendor records. | Service principals is specific to Azure Active Directory and Workflow form data to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Azure Active Directory and Gatekeeper
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.
Azure Active Directory Gatekeeper Sub-second propagation
DetectionAzure Active Directory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Microsoft Graph delta query (deltaLink tokens returning only changed users and groups, with @removed deletions) paired with change-notification.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Gatekeeper through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Gatekeeper Azure Active Directory Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Gatekeeper for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Azure Active Directory through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Azure Active Directory: Resource-unit throttling: roughly 8,000 ResourceUnits per 10 seconds per app for reads on tenants over 500 users, writes near 3,000 requests per 2.5 minutes; 429 responses include a Retry-After header.
- Gatekeeper: Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.

How the Azure Active Directory and Gatekeeper connectors work
Azure Active Directory
- Integration surface
- Microsoft Graph REST API (v1.0)
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform using an Entra ID app registration; app-only (client credentials) or delegated flows, with directory scopes such as User.ReadWrite.All and Group.ReadWrite.All requiring tenant admin consent
- Change detection
- Microsoft Graph delta query (deltaLink tokens returning only changed users and groups, with @removed deletions) paired with change-notification webhook subscriptions for near-real-time push

Gatekeeper
- Integration surface
- RESTful API following the JSON:API specification, tenant-scoped with interactive docs at {tenant}.gatekeeperhq.com/api_docs and a published Postman collection. The API is dynamic: it exposes the standard Contract and Vendor objects plus any custom data groups and workflow-form data configured in the tenant.
- Authentication
- API keys created and managed under Configuration > API Keys and passed as a token; each key carries granular per-endpoint permissions set to read-only or write, so access is scoped per object. Multiple keys can be issued and revoked independently.
- Change detection
- No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log; detect changes by polling the JSON:API list endpoints filtered and sorted on updated-at timestamps. Gatekeeper's own event automation - Workflow Engine phase transitions and Interconnect process orchestration - runs inside the platform rather than as a subscribable webhook stream.

FAQ
Azure Active Directory and Gatekeeper integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Azure Active Directory and Gatekeeper: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Azure Active Directory's Users and Devices), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Change detection on Azure Active Directory: Microsoft Graph delta query (deltaLink tokens returning only changed users and groups, with @removed deletions) paired with change-notification webhook subscriptions for near-real-time push. On Gatekeeper: No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log; detect changes by polling the JSON:API list endpoints filtered and sorted on updated-at timestamps. Gatekeeper's own event automation - Workflow Engine phase transitions and Interconnect process orchestration - runs inside the platform rather than as a subscribable webhook stream. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Gatekeeper side: Files, Workflow form data, Custom data groups, Users, plus custom fields where Gatekeeper exposes them. On the Azure Active Directory side: Groups, Group memberships, Applications, Service principals. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Azure Active Directory and Gatekeeper: Keep profile attributes current; Mirror group and role membership; One record per person. A person's name, email, department, manager, or phone number corrected in either system updates the other, so the productivity tool shows the same details the directory holds of record.
