Why teams connect BetterContact and Egnyte

Land the records and documents that build up in BetterContact into Egnyte as they are created, and surface Egnyte's file details on the BetterContact records that point to them, without an export job to maintain.

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

BetterContact and Egnyte hold different kinds of data. BetterContact carries records and the activity around them — the tickets, messages, orders, or issues a team works through, often with documents attached. Egnyte holds files and the metadata that describes them. Where the two meet is narrow but real: much of what BetterContact produces has to be kept somewhere durable, and many of the files Egnyte stores are the very documents BetterContact's records point to.

Stacksync syncs Enriched Contact, Company, Lead Finder Search, Enrichment Request in BetterContact with Events and Audit reports, Files, Folders, Users in Egnyte in real time. Records and attachments created in BetterContact are written into Egnyte as objects or files within seconds of being created. In the other direction, the metadata Egnyte keeps about those files — name, location, owner, modified date — flows back onto the matching record in BetterContact, so people see the current document without leaving the tool. Field-level mapping controls exactly what crosses over and in which direction, so you keep a durable copy of what matters without an extract to schedule or a nightly dump that leaves the copy a day behind.

Common use cases

  • 01 Feed outbound sequencing tools with verified contact data before campaigns launch.
  • 02 Validate catch-all email addresses before sending to protect sender domain reputation.
  • 03 Stream Egnyte audit Events (file, login, permission, and Link changes) into a warehouse or SIEM for compliance and governance reporting.
  • 04 Provision and deprovision Egnyte Users and Groups from an HRIS or IdP so folder access follows employee onboarding and offboarding.

Common sync patterns

Feed a data lake or downstream pipeline

Structured records from BetterContact land in Egnyte as objects a data lake, search index, or processing pipeline can read, without a custom extract to build and babysit.

Archive what BetterContact produces into Egnyte

Records and events from BetterContact — tickets, messages, orders, or issues — are written into Egnyte as objects or files as they change, giving you a durable, addressable copy for retention and audit.

Where BetterContact generates attachments: keep the files in Egnyte

Documents attached to records in BetterContact land in the storage system automatically, with the source record holding a link back, so files live in one governed place instead of inside the tool.

What you can sync between BetterContact and Egnyte

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.

BetterContact objects Egnyte objects How this pairing syncs
Enriched Contact Verified work emails and mobile numbers with job title, LinkedIn profile, location, and skills. Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. Enriched Contact is specific to BetterContact and Permissions to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Company data returned with each contact: name, domain, HQ location, industry, employee count. Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. Company is specific to BetterContact and Links to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lead Finder Search Prospect discovery by people and company filters, returning enriched lead profiles. Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. Lead Finder Search is specific to BetterContact and Metadata to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment Request Batch or single submissions of up to 100 contacts per request for waterfall enrichment. Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. Enrichment Request is specific to BetterContact and Events and Audit reports to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BetterContact and Egnyte

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.

BetterContact Egnyte Sub-second propagation

DetectionBetterContact notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Job-based delivery — enrichment results arrive by webhook push or polling of the results endpoint.

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

Egnyte BetterContact Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

DeliveryBetterContact does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: BetterContact's output flows back as field updates on the originating Egnyte records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
