Why teams connect Box and Lusha

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

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

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

Stacksync syncs Email Addresses, Phone Numbers, Prospecting Results, Bulk Enrichment Requests in Lusha with Collaborations, Users, Groups, Tasks in Box in real time. Records and attachments created in Lusha are written into Box as objects or files within seconds of being created. In the other direction, the metadata Box keeps about those files — name, location, owner, modified date — flows back onto the matching record in Lusha, 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 Build prospecting lists from Lusha search results and sync them into the CRM as leads.
  • 02 Re-verify stale contact data on a schedule and flag records that no longer resolve.
  • 03 Stream enterprise Events (admin events) into a warehouse for audit, DLP, and access-review reporting.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Files and Folders between Box and an operational database so applications track document status without calling the Box API directly.

Common sync patterns

A copy that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Box preserves records and documents even as they age out of Lusha or get changed inside it, so history stays intact and reachable.

Feed a data lake or downstream pipeline

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

Archive what Lusha produces into Box

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

What you can sync between Box and Lusha

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 Lusha objects How this pairing syncs
Metadata Structured key-value instances attached to files and folders via metadata templates; synced two-way with database columns for classification and search. Bulk Enrichment Requests Batch lookups that enrich multiple records per request, used to backfill large contact lists rather than one-off calls. Metadata is specific to Box and Bulk Enrichment Requests to Lusha — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collaborations Access grants linking a user or group to a file or folder with a role such as viewer, editor, or co-owner; written to manage sharing programmatically. Person Profiles Contact-level enrichment results (work emails, phone numbers, title, company) returned per lookup. Collaborations is specific to Box and Person Profiles to Lusha — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Managed and app users in the enterprise; provisioned, updated, and deprovisioned to keep Box access aligned with an HR or identity source. Company Profiles Firmographic records (industry, size, location) appended to account or company rows. Users is specific to Box and Company Profiles to Lusha — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Named user collections used for bulk collaboration; membership synced from a directory or IdP. Email Addresses Work emails written into CRM contact fields during enrichment. Groups is specific to Box and Email Addresses to Lusha — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tasks Review or approval assignments on a file with due dates and states; read for workflow reporting or written to start approvals. Phone Numbers Direct-dial and mobile numbers appended for outbound calling workflows. Tasks is specific to Box and Phone Numbers to Lusha — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events Enterprise admin event stream, an audit log of uploads, deletes, logins, and shares across the account; read-only, consumed for reporting or change feeds. Prospecting Results Search-based lists of people and companies matching filters, used to seed lead lists. Events is specific to Box and Prospecting Results to Lusha — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Box and Lusha

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 Lusha 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.

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

Lusha Box Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Lusha for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Data is fetched on demand per lookup, so syncs poll or trigger enrichment when source records change.

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.
  • Lusha: Lookups consume credits and are subject to the platform's API rate limits.
