Why teams connect Campfire and Namely

Keep the people, teams, and status that Campfire 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 Campfire 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 Fixed Asset Class, Bill, Debit Memo, Invoice in Campfire with Groups, Teams, Reports, Profile Fields in Namely bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Namely creates or updates the matching user in Campfire within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Campfire 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 Send scheduled digest messages built from synced database queries.
  • 02 Post alerts into a room when records change in a synced system such as a CRM or an operational database.
  • 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

Where Campfire routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org

When someone changes teams or managers in Namely, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Campfire 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 Campfire with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.

Offboarding: no standing access after a departure

When someone is marked as leaving in Namely, the matching account in Campfire is deactivated or flagged, so departures do not leave open access behind.

What you can sync between Campfire 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.

Campfire objects Namely objects How this pairing syncs
Chart of Accounts Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Profile Fields Metadata describing standard and company-defined custom field sections; read to discover schema and generate mappings. Chart of Accounts is specific to Campfire and Profile Fields to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Chart Transaction Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Events Home-feed items such as announcements, birthdays, anniversaries, and new arrivals; typically read-only into comms tools. Chart Transaction is specific to Campfire and Events to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fixed Asset Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Profiles The core employee record (personal, job, contact, and compensation fields); synced two-way via GET/POST/PUT with updated_at driving incremental polling. Fixed Asset is specific to Campfire and Profiles to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fixed Asset Class Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Job Titles Job title definitions; read and written so titles stay aligned with an HRIS, directory, or reporting dimension. Fixed Asset Class is specific to Campfire and Job Titles to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Bill Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Job Tiers Leveling hierarchy grouping zero-to-many Job Titles; read to map seniority into warehouse dimension tables. Bill is specific to Campfire and Job Tiers to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Debit Memo Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Groups Departments and locations that organize Profiles; synced to keep org structure aligned with a warehouse or IdP. Debit Memo is specific to Campfire and Groups to Namely — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Campfire 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.

Campfire Namely Sub-second propagation

DetectionCampfire pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Near real-time updates via change tracking (incremental sync).

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

Namely Campfire Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Namely for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No webhooks.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Campfire: Limits depend on the self-hosted deployment; confirm against the instance's documentation.
  • 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.
