Why teams connect Clearbit and Success Factors

Flow Clearbit data into Success Factors 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 Success Factors, so Success Factors 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 Success Factors. Success Factors 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 Enrich new CRM leads with person and company attributes as they are created, keyed by email and domain.
  • 02 Append technographic fields to account records in the warehouse for ICP scoring models.
  • 03 Two-way sync of User and EmpJob (position, department, manager, cost center) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current org data in SQL while HR edits in SuccessFactors.
  • 04 Push new hires (PerPerson, EmpEmployment, EmpJob) into an ERP or payroll system so account, cost-center, and payroll setup fire on hire instead of manual Integration Center exports.

Common sync patterns

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 Success Factors tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Success Factors, 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.

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Success Factors records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Clearbit, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

What you can sync between Clearbit and Success Factors

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 Success Factors objects How this pairing syncs
Reveal matches IP-to-company resolutions used to identify anonymous website traffic. Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) Org-structure master data (department, location, cost center, division); mastered elsewhere and written in, or read out to build org charts. Reveal matches is specific to Clearbit and Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) to Success Factors — 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. Position Position Management records for headcount and requisition planning; synced with an ATS or ERP to keep positions and reqs aligned. Name-to-domain lookups is specific to Clearbit and Position to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment attributes The firmographic and technographic fields appended to destination records. PerEmail and PerPhone Contact sub-entities under PerPerson; synced two-way with a directory or comms system to keep worker contact data current. Enrichment attributes is specific to Clearbit and PerEmail and PerPhone to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Companies Firmographic profiles looked up by domain and merged into account records. User Core identity/User entity behind role-based permissions; a model distinct from Employee Central, synced two-way with a directory or IdP and downstream apps. Companies is specific to Clearbit and User to Success Factors — 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. PerPerson Person-level container in Employee Central holding biographical data; effective-dated child entities (PerPersonal, PerEmail, PerPhone) hang off it. Persons is specific to Clearbit and PerPerson to Success Factors — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Clearbit and Success Factors

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 Success Factors Sub-second propagation

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

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

Success Factors Clearbit Sub-second propagation

DetectionSuccess Factors notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on each entity's lastModifiedDateTime / lastModifiedOn (effective-dated entities require date-range handling).

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 Success Factors records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Clearbit: Subject to plan-based API rate limits and lookup volumes.
  • Success Factors: OData calls are throttled at the tenant level (Access Limits for OData V2); large reads must be paginated (default page size 1000) via $top/$skip or paging cursors.
