Why teams connect Azure Active Directory and Twenty CRM

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

A CRM and an identity system usually describe different populations. Twenty CRM 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 Twenty CRM 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 Twenty CRM are the same users Azure Active Directory authenticates. Left unconnected, a departure in Azure Active Directory leaves stale ownership sitting in Twenty CRM, and a signup in Azure Active Directory never reaches the account it belongs to.

Stacksync syncs Attachments, Workspace Members, People, Companies in Twenty CRM with Groups, Group memberships, Applications, Service principals 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 Mirror support tickets or tasks between Twenty and an operations tool.
  • 02 Run a continuous sync from a legacy CRM into Twenty during a migration so both systems stay usable through cutover.
  • 03 Sync manager, department, and jobTitle from an HRIS back onto Entra ID User attributes to keep dynamic groups and Conditional Access accurate.
  • 04 Replicate Groups and their Members into a Postgres warehouse for access reviews and entitlement reporting.

Common sync patterns

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 Twenty CRM, so go-to-market teams see who has actually activated and who has gone dormant.

Group and entitlement membership as CRM fields

Membership of a directory group or an entitlement in Azure Active Directory maps to fields in Twenty CRM, 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: Twenty CRM drives Azure Active Directory

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

What you can sync between Azure Active Directory and Twenty CRM

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 Twenty CRM objects How this pairing syncs
Applications App registrations under /applications; usually read into a database or CMDB for app ownership and credential-expiry tracking. Notes Free-form notes attached to records, useful for mirroring activity from other tools. Applications is specific to Azure Active Directory and Notes to Twenty CRM — 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. Custom Objects User-defined objects created in Twenty's data model settings, addressable through the same APIs as standard objects. Service principals is specific to Azure Active Directory and Custom Objects to Twenty CRM — 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. Attachments Files linked to records. Directory roles is specific to Azure Active Directory and Attachments to Twenty CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Devices /devices registered or joined to the tenant; typically read-only into asset and security databases. Workspace Members User accounts used for record ownership and assignment mapping. Devices is specific to Azure Active Directory and Workspace Members to Twenty CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. People Individual contact records with emails, phones, and company links; a core target for contact syncs. Users is specific to Azure Active Directory and People to Twenty CRM — 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. Companies Account-level records that group people and opportunities. Groups is specific to Azure Active Directory and Companies to Twenty CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Active Directory and Twenty CRM

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

Twenty CRM Azure Active Directory Sub-second propagation

DetectionTwenty CRM notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on record create, update, and delete events, or polling on record update timestamps.

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.
  • Twenty CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits; self-hosted deployments control their own limits.
