Why teams connect Braze and Namely
Keep the people, teams, and status that Braze and Namely share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.
Each tool in Braze keeps its own list of who can use it: users, members, or agents, along with the team they sit on and whether they are still active. Namely is the authoritative record of the same people as employees, with their department, manager, and employment status. When those two are connected only by manual account admin or a periodic export, the work tools drift: new hires wait days for access, team and manager changes never catch up, and people who have left keep standing accounts.
Stacksync syncs Segments, Campaigns, Canvases, Subscription Groups in Braze with Reports, Profile Fields, Events, Profiles in Namely bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Namely creates or updates the matching user in Braze within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Braze captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Namely in whichever direction you configure.
Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps its own extras; only the shared facts, who a person is, which team they belong to, and whether their access should be on, are held in agreement.
Common use cases
- 01 Sync CRM and billing attributes onto Braze user profiles so lifecycle campaigns target accurate plan and status data.
- 02 Push product usage events from a database or warehouse into Braze to trigger onboarding and retention journeys.
- 03 Feed Namely Reports as JSON into a database on a schedule for roster, turnover, and diversity dashboards without manual CSV exports.
- 04 Provision or deprovision accounts in an IdP or directory when a Profile's user_status or start_date changes, and write the resulting user ID and email back onto the Profile.
Common sync patterns
Org and team structure kept current
Department, team, and reporting-line changes from Namely keep the groups, queues, or projects in Braze assigned to the right people.
Where Braze routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org
When someone changes teams or managers in Namely, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Braze update to match, so work reaches whoever holds the role now.
Onboarding: access ready on day one
A new hire recorded in Namely creates the matching user in Braze with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.
What you can sync between Braze and Namely
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 | Namely objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Custom Events Behavioral events pushed into Braze to trigger campaigns and Canvases. | Reports Saved Namely reports returned as JSON snapshots that update instantly; read-only feeds for headcount and roster analytics. | Custom Events is specific to Braze and Reports to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Purchases Transaction records logged against profiles for revenue-based targeting. | Profile Fields Metadata describing standard and company-defined custom field sections; read to discover schema and generate mappings. | Purchases is specific to Braze and Profile Fields to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Segments Audience definitions read for membership export and campaign targeting. | Events Home-feed items such as announcements, birthdays, anniversaries, and new arrivals; typically read-only into comms tools. | Segments is specific to Braze and Events to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Campaigns Message sends whose metadata and analytics are read for reporting. | Profiles The core employee record (personal, job, contact, and compensation fields); synced two-way via GET/POST/PUT with updated_at driving incremental polling. | Campaigns is specific to Braze and Profiles to Namely — 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. | Job Titles Job title definitions; read and written so titles stay aligned with an HRIS, directory, or reporting dimension. | Canvases is specific to Braze and Job Titles to Namely — 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. | Job Tiers Leveling hierarchy grouping zero-to-many Job Titles; read to map seniority into warehouse dimension tables. | Subscription Groups is specific to Braze and Job Tiers to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Braze and Namely
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 Namely 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 Namely 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.
- Namely: Namely's public docs do not publish a fixed request quota; the REST API returns standard HTTP status codes, so integrations should throttle and back off on 429/5xx responses.

FAQ
Braze and Namely integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Braze and Namely: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Braze's Custom Events and Purchases), 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 Braze and Namely connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Braze–Namely integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Braze and Namely. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Braze: Braze Currents streams engagement events outward; profile reads otherwise rely on export endpoints and polling. On Namely: No webhooks; integrations poll GET endpoints and compare the updated_at / created_at timestamps on Profiles and related objects to detect changes. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Braze side: Segments, Campaigns, Canvases, Subscription Groups, plus custom fields where Braze exposes them. On the Namely side: Reports, Profile Fields, Events, Profiles. 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.
