Why teams connect Bill and D2l Brightspace
Keep the employee, department, and cost records that Bill and D2l Brightspace share consistent in real time, so the finance system and the people system stop drifting apart.
Bill runs the money side of the company: who gets paid, what it costs, and which part of the business the cost belongs to. D2l Brightspace runs the people side: who works here, which team they sit in, and how their employment changes over time. The two overlap on the same people and the same org structure, because every employee is also a payee and every department is also a cost center. When that overlap is maintained by hand, a new hire, a transfer, or a termination has to be keyed twice, and the two systems start to disagree about who is active and where the cost lands.
Stacksync syncs Bills, Vendors, Invoices, Customers in Bill with Org Units, Grades, Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress), Quizzes in D2l Brightspace bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, updated, or deactivated on either side appears on the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV exports and nightly batch jobs.
That matters most when money follows a people event. A hire that finance can pay, a leaver whose access ends, a transfer that redirects cost to the right team, all happen from one change instead of two, so headcount and spend reconcile from the same set of records.
Common use cases
- 01 Read approved Bills and their line items into a Postgres warehouse for spend, accrual, and cash-flow reporting without CSV exports.
- 02 Sync Customers and Invoices from BILL AR into a CRM or ERP so sales and finance see billing and payment status on the account.
- 03 Sync Assignment (Dropbox) submissions and feedback into a reporting database or downstream review tool.
- 04 Two-way sync of Users and Enrollments between Brightspace and an SIS or HRIS so new learners and their course rosters stay aligned without manual CSV imports.
Common sync patterns
One employee identity
A person's name, ID, or contact details corrected in either system update the other, so finance and HR reference the same person instead of maintaining two versions.
Department and cost-center alignment
The org structure maintained in D2l Brightspace keeps the departments or cost centers in Bill current, so spend and headcount roll up the same way.
Status changes propagate
A role, department, or employment-status change in either system updates the other within seconds, so cost allocation, access, and reporting reflect the current state.
What you can sync between Bill and D2l Brightspace
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.
| Bill objects | D2l Brightspace objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bank Accounts Funding and deposit accounts; read to reconcile payments and posted transactions against the ledger. | Grades Grade objects, categories, schemes, and per-user grade values in the Learning Environment (le) component; values can be read out and written back onto the gradebook. | Bank Accounts is specific to Bill and Grades to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Vendor Credits and Credit Memos AP and AR adjustments applied against bills and invoices; synced so balances stay accurate on both sides. | Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) Course content structure plus per-user completion; progress is read into a warehouse and topics can be created and updated via the API. | Vendor Credits and Credit Memos is specific to Bill and Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Bills Accounts-payable amounts owed to vendors, with bill line items; read and created via /v3/bills and pulled incrementally by filtering on createdTime/updatedTime. | Quizzes Quiz objects and per-user attempts and results; attempt data is read out for engagement and completion analytics. | Bills is specific to Bill and Quizzes to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Vendors Payee master records; synced two-way with vendor/supplier tables in an ERP or accounting system so new payees don't have to be re-keyed. | Assignments (Dropbox) Dropbox folders, submissions, and feedback; submission and evaluation data is read into reporting systems and feedback can be written back. | Vendors is specific to Bill and Assignments (Dropbox) to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Invoices Accounts-receivable invoices sent to customers; created and read via /v3/invoices to keep billing status aligned with the ERP or CRM. | Groups and Sections Group categories, groups, and section membership within an org unit; enrollments are read and written to keep cohort assignments aligned. | Invoices is specific to Bill and Groups and Sections to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Customers AR customer master records; mapped to customer/account records in a CRM or ERP so finance and sales share one view. | Users User accounts in the Learning Platform (lp) component; created, read, updated, and deleted through the Valence API and typically synced two-way with an SIS or HRIS. | Customers is specific to Bill and Users to D2l Brightspace — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Bill and D2l Brightspace
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.
Bill D2l Brightspace Sub-second propagation
DetectionBill notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook event subscriptions (POST /v3/subscriptions) for bills, vendors, payments, invoices, and bank accounts, with polling on.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to D2l Brightspace through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
D2l Brightspace Bill Sub-second propagation
DetectionD2l Brightspace notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling Valence endpoints with date/bookmark filters, differential Brightspace Data Sets (BDS) bulk exports for changed rows via the Data Hub, and.

Rate-limit considerations
- Bill: 20,000 requests per developer key per hour; login (POST /v3/login) capped at 200/hour; maximum 3 concurrent requests per developer key per organization. Spend & Expense API is a separate token at 60 calls/token/minute.
- D2l Brightspace: Per-caller token-bucket credit scheme; each route costs credits, responses carry X-Rate-Limit-Remaining, and over-quota calls return HTTP 429. D2L can adjust per-route credit costs.

FAQ
Bill and D2l Brightspace integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Bill and D2l Brightspace: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Bill's Bank Accounts and Vendor Credits and Credit Memos), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Bill: List endpoints support filtering and sorting on createdTime and updatedTime with ISO 8601 date-time ranges, which sync engines use to pull only incremental changes. D2l Brightspace: Brightspace Data Streams post xAPI activity events (interactions), not row-level CRUD change events, so object sync still relies on polling or BDS exports. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Bill and D2l Brightspace without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Bill and D2l Brightspace records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Bill and D2l Brightspace connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Bill–D2l Brightspace integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Bill and D2l Brightspace. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Bill: Webhook event subscriptions (POST /v3/subscriptions) for bills, vendors, payments, invoices, and bank accounts, with polling on createdTime/updatedTime list filters as the fallback. On D2l Brightspace: Polling Valence endpoints with date/bookmark filters, differential Brightspace Data Sets (BDS) bulk exports for changed rows via the Data Hub, and Brightspace Data Streams webhooks (xAPI activity events) for near-real-time signals. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
