Why teams connect Clearbit and Smartrecruiters

Flow Clearbit data into Smartrecruiters in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

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

Clearbit runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Smartrecruiters. Smartrecruiters is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Common use cases

  • 01 Refresh firmographic fields on existing accounts on a schedule so segmentation stays current.
  • 02 Enrich new CRM leads with person and company attributes as they are created, keyed by email and domain.
  • 03 Stream Jobs and Job Postings into a reporting database for requisition, funnel, and time-to-fill dashboards.
  • 04 Export Interviews and Offers to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load, offer-acceptance rates, and hiring outcomes.

Common sync patterns

Deactivate access when someone leaves

When Smartrecruiters marks a worker as departed, the matching user in Clearbit is flagged or deactivated, so former employees do not keep CRM access after their last day.

One directory of people

A person's name, title, email, phone, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so both stop maintaining separate copies of the same individual.

Where Smartrecruiters tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Smartrecruiters, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in Clearbit, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

What you can sync between Clearbit and Smartrecruiters

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.

Clearbit objects Smartrecruiters objects How this pairing syncs
Reveal matches IP-to-company resolutions used to identify anonymous website traffic. Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status, custom offer fields, and offer documents; readable and writable, commonly synced to an HRIS on hire (documents endpoint limited to 2 requests/sec). Reveal matches is specific to Clearbit and Offers to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Name-to-domain lookups Company name resolution used to normalize account records before enrichment. Users Company users (recruiters, hiring managers) with roles, access groups, and activation state; read and written via the User Management API. Name-to-domain lookups is specific to Clearbit and Users to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment attributes The firmographic and technographic fields appended to destination records. Approvals Approval requests for jobs and offers; requests can be created, retrieved as pending, commented on, and approved or rejected via the Approvals API. Enrichment attributes is specific to Clearbit and Approvals to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Companies Firmographic profiles looked up by domain and merged into account records. Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, attachments, custom properties, and consent; created, updated, and searched via the Candidates API, often populated from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Companies is specific to Clearbit and Candidates to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Persons Individual profiles looked up by email and used to enrich contacts and leads. Applications Links a Candidate to a Job and carries the current hiring status and source; created and advanced through statuses (screening, interview, offer, hired, rejected) via the Application API. Persons is specific to Clearbit and Applications to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Clearbit and Smartrecruiters

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.

Clearbit Smartrecruiters Sub-second propagation

DetectionClearbit notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. On-demand lookups.

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

Smartrecruiters Clearbit Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartrecruiters notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks API — subscribe to events (new application, candidate updated, status changed) delivered with a signing secret and retrievable callback logs.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Clearbit: Subject to plan-based API rate limits and lookup volumes.
  • Smartrecruiters: Per API credential: most endpoints allow up to 10 requests/sec (job publication and offer documents 2/sec), plus a concurrency limiter of up to 8 simultaneous requests (GET /candidates capped at 1). Exceeding returns 429; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit/Remaining and concurrent-limit headers.
