Why teams connect Braze and Microsoft Graph

Connect the tickets, records, and events in Braze to the systems engineering runs in Microsoft Graph, kept current in real time and in both directions.

Braze is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. Microsoft Graph is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.

Stacksync syncs Custom Events, Purchases, Segments, Campaigns in Braze with Planner tasks, Users, Groups and memberships, Mail messages (Outlook) in Microsoft Graph field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync audience membership computed in the warehouse into Braze segments for targeting.
  • 02 Sync CRM and billing attributes onto Braze user profiles so lifecycle campaigns target accurate plan and status data.
  • 03 Send Outlook mail through the sendMail action when a database or CRM record changes, then read replies back onto the same record.
  • 04 Mirror OneDrive and SharePoint drive items into a data store to index documents and their metadata for search and governance.

Common sync patterns

Where Microsoft Graph watches operations: live volumes for visibility

Open items, throughput, and error counts from Braze replicate into Microsoft Graph, so the operational view reflects what is actually happening in the business.

One shared record across both systems

Where both systems keep records for the same contacts, items, or users, a correction in either updates the other, ending dual maintenance and keeping IDs aligned for every other flow.

Where Microsoft Graph tracks engineering work: requests become issues

A ticket or request raised in Braze opens or updates a matching issue in Microsoft Graph, and status, comments, and resolution flow back, so support and engineering work the same item instead of retyping it.

What you can sync between Braze and Microsoft Graph

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.

Braze objects Microsoft Graph objects How this pairing syncs
Users The central profile object, identified by external ID, Braze ID, or user aliases; the main sync target. Users Entra ID user accounts read and written via /users; create, update profile attributes, and enable or disable accounts with User.ReadWrite.All. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Segments Audience definitions read for membership export and campaign targeting. Groups and memberships Microsoft 365 and security groups via /groups; read and write name, owners, and add/remove members, with membership deltas surfaced by delta query. Segments is specific to Braze and Groups and memberships to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Campaigns Message sends whose metadata and analytics are read for reporting. Mail messages (Outlook) Messages via /users/{id}/messages; read and create drafts, update, and send with the sendMail action, so this surface is fully read-write. Campaigns is specific to Braze and Mail messages (Outlook) to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Canvases Multi-step journeys; entry and performance data is read for lifecycle analysis. Calendar events Outlook events via /users/{id}/events; read and write meetings, attendees, and recurrence, and accept or decline invitations. Canvases is specific to Braze and Calendar events to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subscription Groups Channel-level opt-in states synced with consent records in other systems. Contacts Personal Outlook contacts via /users/{id}/contacts; full create, read, update, delete, synced two-way with CRM person records. Subscription Groups is specific to Braze and Contacts to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Content Blocks Reusable message content referenced across campaigns. Drive items (OneDrive & SharePoint) Files and folders via /drives and /me/drive; read and write items, upload and download content, and read per-item metadata. Content Blocks is specific to Braze and Drive items (OneDrive & SharePoint) to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Braze and Microsoft Graph

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.

Braze Microsoft Graph Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Braze for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Braze Currents streams engagement events outward.

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

Microsoft Graph Braze Sub-second propagation

DetectionMicrosoft Graph notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delta query (change tracking) returns created, updated, and deleted items since the last deltaLink for users, groups, mail, events, contacts, and.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Braze: Endpoints have per-endpoint rate limits documented by Braze; batch endpoints accept multiple users per request.
  • Microsoft Graph: Throttled per app and per tenant, returning HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header; limits vary by service — the Outlook mail service allows about 10,000 requests per 10 minutes per app per mailbox with up to 4 concurrent requests, and delta and subscription tokens expire and must be renewed.

Microsoft Graph

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph unified REST API (v1.0 and beta) at graph.microsoft.com, spanning Microsoft 365 services — Entra ID, Outlook mail and calendar, OneDrive and SharePoint, Teams, and Planner; supports JSON $batch (up to 20 requests per call).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID). An app registration holds delegated or application (app-only) scopes such as Mail.ReadWrite, Calendars.ReadWrite, Files.ReadWrite.All, User.ReadWrite.All, and Group.ReadWrite.All; application permissions require tenant admin consent.
Change detection
Delta query (change tracking) returns created, updated, and deleted items since the last deltaLink for users, groups, mail, events, contacts, and driveItems; change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) POST near-real-time notifications to a notification URL and must be renewed before they expire.
