Why teams connect Azure Active Directory and Seismic

Keep the people Seismic and Azure Active Directory both track in agreement in real time: the internal users who own records in Seismic, and the customer login accounts in Azure Active Directory.

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

Stacksync syncs Content Versions, Users, User Groups, Teamsites in Seismic with Service principals, Directory roles, Devices, Users in Azure Active Directory 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 Provision and deactivate Seismic Users and User Groups from an HRIS or IdP so content access mirrors joiner, mover, and leaver changes.
  • 02 Extract content-interaction and LiveSend engagement from the Reporting API v2 into a warehouse to tie asset views to CRM Opportunities.
  • 03 Provision and deprovision Entra ID Users and Group memberships from an HR system of record so account enablement follows employment status.
  • 04 Sync manager, department, and jobTitle from an HRIS back onto Entra ID User attributes to keep dynamic groups and Conditional Access accurate.

Common sync patterns

Where Azure Active Directory governs your workforce: CRM users kept current

New employees in Azure Active Directory become active users in Seismic 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.

Deactivation and record hand-off

When someone is disabled in Azure Active Directory, the matching user in Seismic is deactivated too, and the accounts, contacts, and deals they owned are flagged for reassignment, so nothing goes unattended after they leave.

Where Azure Active Directory runs customer login accounts: identity on the customer record

Signup, account status, multi-factor enrollment, and last-login from Azure Active Directory land on the matching contact or account in Seismic, so go-to-market teams see who has actually activated and who has gone dormant.

What you can sync between Azure Active Directory and Seismic

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 Seismic 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 User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Groups /groups covering security and Microsoft 365 groups; created, updated, and deleted through Graph, and read into warehouses for entitlement reporting. User Groups Group definitions and membership that govern content access; synced from an IdP or HRIS to keep permissions current. Groups is specific to Azure Active Directory and User Groups to Seismic — 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. Teamsites Tenant-scoped workspace partitions organizing Library content, permissions, and config; scoped by teamSiteId on most content calls. Group memberships is specific to Azure Active Directory and Teamsites to Seismic — 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. LiveSend Links Trackable content-share links created via the engagement API; their open and view engagement is read back through Reporting. Applications is specific to Azure Active Directory and LiveSend Links to Seismic — 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. Digital Sales Rooms Buyer-facing microsites (DSRs); lifecycle and content-change events surface via webhooks, currently marked Early Access. Service principals is specific to Azure Active Directory and Digital Sales Rooms to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Directory roles /directoryRoles and roleManagement assignments; read for privileged-access reviews, with role-assignment writes where the granted scopes permit. Reporting Activities Content-interaction, engagement, and usage analytics extracted read-only through the ETL-oriented Reporting API v2 for a warehouse. Directory roles is specific to Azure Active Directory and Reporting Activities to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Active Directory and Seismic

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

Seismic Azure Active Directory Sub-second propagation

DetectionSeismic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend events.

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.
  • Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.
