Why teams connect D2l Brightspace and Gorgias

Keep the people who own accounts in Gorgias in step with the workforce records in D2l Brightspace, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.

Gorgias 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 D2l Brightspace. D2l Brightspace 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.

Stacksync syncs Messages, Customers, Users (agents), Tags in Gorgias with Grades, Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress), Quizzes, Assignments (Dropbox) in D2l Brightspace field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so D2l Brightspace stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Gorgias keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Gorgias customers and tickets into a warehouse or CRM so support volume can be analyzed alongside order and LTV data.
  • 02 Push order, subscription, and shipping data from a production database into Gorgias customer profiles so agents see context without switching tools.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Users and Enrollments between Brightspace and an SIS or HRIS so new learners and their course rosters stay aligned without manual CSV imports.
  • 04 Write Grades reconciled in a warehouse back onto Brightspace grade objects, and read grade values out for transcript and completion reporting.

Common sync patterns

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When D2l Brightspace records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Gorgias, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

When a person changes team, manager, or region in D2l Brightspace, their accounts and territory assignments in Gorgias update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

Deactivate access when someone leaves

When D2l Brightspace marks a worker as departed, the matching user in Gorgias is flagged or deactivated, so former employees do not keep CRM access after their last day.
