Why teams connect Close and Easypost

Keep the customers and orders that Close and Easypost share aligned in real time, so sales works from live purchase history and the store works from current account details.

Close holds the customer relationship: the contacts, accounts, and deals a go-to-market team works. Easypost runs the buying side: who placed which order, what they bought, and where it ships. The two describe the same people and companies, and when they are connected only by exports, sales answers questions without recent orders in front of them while the store works from account details that changed weeks ago.

Stacksync links Users, Smart Views, Leads, Contacts in Close to Shipment, Address, Parcel, Rate in Easypost with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, order activity, and corrected contact details move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. A record created or changed on either side shows up on the other within seconds, with no CSV exports and no nightly job.

The shared entity is the customer, matched on email or an external ID, so both systems agree on who the buyer is and the order history sits next to the relationship instead of in a separate tab.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync between Close and a billing or ERP system so closed-won opportunities create customers and invoices automatically.
  • 02 Keep Close contacts aligned with a marketing automation platform so outreach lists stay current.
  • 03 Pull Shipment, Rate, and Refund records into a warehouse to report shipping cost per carrier and service and reclaim postage on labels that were never scanned.
  • 04 Batch-create and buy labels for a day's orders, generate a ScanForm, and write each label and tracking code back into the fulfillment system.

Common sync patterns

Where Close segments customers: status travels to the store record

Lifecycle stage, tier, or account owner set in Close syncs onto the customer record in Easypost, so the buying side can act on how the relationship is classified.

Where both keep product records: catalog and CRM products aligned

Where Close tracks products or line items and Easypost holds the catalog, shared items are matched on SKU so quotes, deals, and orders reference the same products.

One customer identity across sales and store

A person who exists as a contact in Close and a buyer in Easypost is kept as a single, deduplicated record, so both teams work from the same customer instead of two partial copies.

What you can sync between Close and Easypost

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.

Close objects Easypost objects How this pairing syncs
Custom Activities User-defined activity types with their own custom fields, mapped like standard activities. Rate Carrier service and price options EasyPost generates on a Shipment; read-only - you select a rate id and buy it, you do not create or edit rates directly. Custom Activities is specific to Close and Rate to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields Org-specific fields on leads, contacts, and opportunities; addressed by stable field ids in syncs. Tracker Tracking for a shipment by tracking_code and carrier; create a Tracker to begin tracking, read status and tracking_details, and receive tracker.updated events via webhook as the parcel moves. Custom Fields is specific to Close and Tracker to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Sales reps referenced as owners on leads, opportunities, and activities. Batch Bulk shipment processing; create a batch, add or remove shipments, buy all labels at once, and generate a consolidated label or ScanForm for the day's orders. Users is specific to Close and Batch to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Smart Views Saved lead searches that can scope which records a segment-based sync pulls. CarrierAccount Carrier credentials and settings that control which carriers and negotiated rates are available; create, update, and delete to manage enabled carriers across accounts. Smart Views is specific to Close and CarrierAccount to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Leads The top-level record in Close; represents a company and holds its contacts, opportunities, and activity history. Webhook Event subscriptions delivering an Event via HTTP POST on object changes; full CRUD (create, retrieve, list, update, delete) and the mechanism for near-real-time change delivery to Stacksync. Leads is specific to Close and Webhook to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contacts People nested under a lead, with emails and phone numbers used for outreach syncs. Shipment The central writable object: create with a to/from Address and Parcel, receive Rate options, then buy a label to get postage_label and tracking_code; retrieve and list with cursor pagination. Contacts is specific to Close and Shipment to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Close and Easypost

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.

Close Easypost Sub-second propagation

DetectionClose notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, with polling on date_updated fields for backfills.

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

Easypost Close Sub-second propagation

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Close: Subject to per-endpoint rate limits communicated in response headers.
  • Easypost: Fixed 5 requests/second on index (list) endpoints plus a dynamic load-based limiter protecting buy and rate operations; exceeding either returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests.
