Why teams connect Box and DealCloud

Keep the paperwork with the relationship: DealCloud and Box share every customer's records and files in real time, in both directions.

DealCloud holds the customer relationship as structured records; Box holds the files that belong to those relationships, from contracts and proposals to signed agreements and statements of work. The two are linked in practice and disconnected in software: someone downloads a document, renames it, and uploads it to the right folder, or exports records out to storage for retention. Done by hand, files drift away from the records they belong to and copies fall out of date.

Stacksync keeps Fund, Investment, Relationship, Activity in DealCloud aligned with Folders, Metadata, Collaborations, Users in Box, in real time. A new account or deal can open its own folder in Box; a document filed in Box can surface as a link and metadata on the matching record in DealCloud; and records from DealCloud can be written into Box as files or objects for backup, archival, and compliance. You choose which side owns what, and Stacksync keeps the two consistent as either one changes.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push portfolio and fund performance data from a warehouse into DealCloud so dealmakers see up-to-date metrics on each investment.
  • 02 Keep DealCloud contacts and relationships in sync with an enrichment or email platform to maintain accurate firm-wide relationship intelligence.
  • 03 Provision and deprovision Users, Groups, and Collaborations from an HR system or IdP so Box access follows onboarding and offboarding.
  • 04 Push generated documents from an ERP or contract system into Box Folders with the right Collaborations applied for the deal team.

Common sync patterns

A folder per account or deal

When an account or deal is created in DealCloud, a matching folder or container opens in Box, named and organized the same way, so files have a home the moment they are needed.

Documents linked back to the record

A contract, proposal, or signed agreement filed in Box surfaces as a link on the matching record in DealCloud, so the customer's paperwork sits with the relationship instead of a shared drive.

CRM records archived into storage

Records from DealCloud are written into Box as files or objects on the schedule you set, giving you a durable copy for backup, retention, and compliance without an export to run by hand.

What you can sync between Box and DealCloud

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.

Box objects DealCloud objects How this pairing syncs
Users Managed and app users in the enterprise; provisioned, updated, and deprovisioned to keep Box access aligned with an HR or identity source. User Synced with incremental and full sync. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Tasks Review or approval assignments on a file with due dates and states; read for workflow reporting or written to start approvals. Task Synced with incremental and full sync. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Metadata Structured key-value instances attached to files and folders via metadata templates; synced two-way with database columns for classification and search. Deal Synced with incremental and full sync. Metadata is specific to Box and Deal to DealCloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Box and DealCloud

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.

Box DealCloud Sub-second propagation

DetectionBox notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. V2 webhooks fire on triggers such as FILE.UPLOADED, FILE.TRASHED, and METADATA_INSTANCE.UPDATED.

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

DealCloud Box Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DealCloud for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Incremental via each entry's last-modified timestamp.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Box: Per user: 1,000 API calls per minute and 240 file uploads per minute; exceeding limits returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Box Business plans also carry a licensed monthly API-call allotment per enterprise.
  • DealCloud: API request limits apply per firm tenant; Stacksync manages throttling and retries automatically.
