Why teams connect Bill and Quip
Connect the financial records in Bill with the work happening in Quip, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.
Bill holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Quip is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.
Stacksync keeps Payments, Chart of Accounts, Bank Accounts, Vendor Credits and Credit Memos in Bill and Folders, Messages, Users, Blobs in Quip in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Quip keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Bill is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.
There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.
Common use cases
- 01 Write Vendors created during ERP onboarding into BILL so new payees are ready to pay without manual re-entry.
- 02 Read Payments and payment status into a reconciliation database once bills are marked paid in BILL.
- 03 Post a new_message into a linked Quip thread when a record changes in a CRM or ticketing system, notifying the account team where they plan.
- 04 Mirror Documents and Spreadsheets into Postgres or a warehouse, keyed on thread ID and refreshed when updated_usec advances, for search and reporting on account plans and notes.
Common sync patterns
Where Quip collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Bill
Payment and charge activity flows into Bill as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.
Where Quip tracks people or companies: one identity
A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.
Where Quip handles customer conversations: billing context in view
Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Bill next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.
What you can sync between Bill and Quip
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 | Quip objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 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. | Documents Editable rich-text threads addressed by ID; created and updated over REST via HTML or Markdown sections, with an updated_usec timestamp used to detect edits. | Bills is specific to Bill and Documents to Quip — 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. | Spreadsheets Live-spreadsheet threads; rows and cells are read and written through add_to_spreadsheet and update_spreadsheet_row helpers on the same thread endpoints. | Vendors is specific to Bill and Spreadsheets to Quip — 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. | Folders Private, Shared, and Group containers that organize threads; membership is added or removed via the folders endpoints for access control. | Invoices is specific to Bill and Folders to Quip — 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. | Messages Comments and chat posts on a thread; the most recent are read with get_messages and new ones written with new_message. | Customers is specific to Bill and Messages to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Payments Outgoing vendor payments and received customer payments; read for reconciliation and created to schedule bill pay. | Users Member records read individually or via contacts; get_authenticated_user identifies the token owner. Used read-only for directory-style syncs. | Payments is specific to Bill and Users to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Chart of Accounts GL accounts used to code bills and invoices; typically mastered in the accounting system and written into BILL for consistent coding. | Blobs Images and file attachments stored per thread; downloaded with get_blob and uploaded with put_blob against a specific thread ID. | Chart of Accounts is specific to Bill and Blobs to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Bill and Quip
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 Quip 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 Quip through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Quip Bill Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Quip for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Bill through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
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.
- Quip: Automation API allows roughly 50 requests per minute per access token; exceeding it returns HTTP 503, and responses carry X-RateLimit headers.

How the Bill and Quip connectors work
Bill
- Integration surface
- REST/JSON (BILL v3 Connect API)
- Authentication
- Session-based: POST /v3/login with username, password, organizationId, and a developer key (devKey) returns a sessionId that is passed with the devKey as headers on every subsequent call; OAuth is available for partner/embedded apps
- Change detection
- Webhook event subscriptions (POST /v3/subscriptions) for bills, vendors, payments, invoices, and bank accounts, with polling on createdTime/updatedTime list filters as the fallback

Quip
- Integration surface
- REST (v1 Automation API)
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens (RFC 6749/6750) or a Personal Access Token; domain admins can pre-approve apps for domain-wide authentication
- Change detection
- Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec; there is no change-data-capture and no outbound change webhook

FAQ
Bill and Quip integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Bill and Quip: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Bill's Bills and Vendors), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Bill and Quip connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Bill–Quip integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Bill and Quip. 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 Quip: Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec; there is no change-data-capture and no outbound change webhook. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Bill side: Payments, Chart of Accounts, Bank Accounts, Vendor Credits and Credit Memos, plus custom fields where Bill exposes them. On the Quip side: Folders, Messages, Users, Blobs. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
