Why teams connect Azure OpenAI and Folk CRM

Flow Azure OpenAI data into Folk CRM in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

Azure OpenAI is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Folk CRM, so Folk CRM always reflects the current state of Azure OpenAI — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Azure OpenAI turns data into something a revenue team can act on: scores, classifications, summaries, and embeddings. But the customers those results describe live in Folk CRM, where reps and marketers actually work. Intelligence that stays inside Azure OpenAI rarely reaches the record where a decision gets made, and Azure OpenAI is only as sharp as the data it sees, which is also held in Folk CRM.

Because the mapping is field-level, you choose exactly which attributes cross and in which direction, so Folk CRM stays the record of the customer while Azure OpenAI stays where the computation happens.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land Fine-tuning jobs with their status, base model, and result Files in a warehouse to power MLOps dashboards without per-viewer API calls.
  • 02 Poll Batch jobs into an operational database and fire the next pipeline step when a job's status turns to completed.
  • 03 Keep folk and a billing or customer success tool aligned on company records as deals close.
  • 04 Sync folk people and companies with a marketing or outbound tool so outreach lists stay current.

Common sync patterns

Where Azure OpenAI scores or ranks records: results on the CRM record

Lead scores, fit ratings, or priority computed in Azure OpenAI land as fields on the matching contact or account in Folk CRM, so reps sort and act on them without leaving the CRM.

Where Azure OpenAI classifies or tags: labels sync onto the record

Categories, sentiment, or intent produced in Azure OpenAI attach to the right contact, account, or deal in Folk CRM, keeping segmentation current as new data arrives.

Where Azure OpenAI indexes records for retrieval: Folk CRM keeps it fresh

Contacts, accounts, and notes from Folk CRM sync into Azure OpenAI as they change, so embeddings or search stay aligned with the live CRM instead of a stale export.

What you can sync between Azure OpenAI and Folk 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 OpenAI objects Folk CRM objects How this pairing syncs
Assistants Persistent assistants (preview) with instructions, tools, and linked files; read as configuration inventory, not authored via sync. Reminders Follow-up items that can be created from external triggers. Assistants is specific to Azure OpenAI and Reminders to Folk CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Vector stores File collections (preview) backing file-search retrieval; read as metadata such as name, file counts, and status. People Contact records; the primary entity synced with outreach and enrichment tools. Vector stores is specific to Azure OpenAI and People to Folk CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Deployments Named model deployments (model, version, SKU, assigned TPM capacity) read as a control-plane inventory via Azure Resource Manager; read-only in sync. Companies Organization records linked to people and kept aligned with billing or CS systems. Deployments is specific to Azure OpenAI and Companies to Folk CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Models Catalog of base and fine-tunable models available per region; read-only reference data used to resolve deployment and fine-tuning targets. Groups Shared workspaces that organize contacts; group membership is often the field integrations act on. Models is specific to Azure OpenAI and Groups to Folk CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fine-tuning jobs Training jobs with status, base model, hyperparameters, and result files; status is polled from queued through succeeded or failed. Custom fields Group-scoped attributes that receive enriched or computed values from external systems. Fine-tuning jobs is specific to Azure OpenAI and Custom fields to Folk CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Files Uploaded training, validation, and batch-input files plus generated output files; listed and read by ID, not written back in sync. Notes Free-text context attached to people and companies, readable for reporting. Files is specific to Azure OpenAI and Notes to Folk CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure OpenAI and Folk 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 OpenAI Folk CRM Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Azure OpenAI for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling: list endpoints plus GET on job IDs for status.

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

Folk CRM Azure OpenAI Sub-second propagation

DetectionFolk CRM notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, with polling of list endpoints as a fallback.

DeliveryAzure OpenAI does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Azure OpenAI's output flows back as field updates on the originating Folk CRM records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Azure OpenAI: Per-deployment TPM and RPM limits (about 6 RPM per 1000 TPM), scoped by region and subscription; control-plane ARM calls throttle separately.
  • Folk CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
