Why teams connect D2l Brightspace and Insightly
Keep the people who own accounts in Insightly 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.
Insightly 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 Events, Notes, Products, Custom Fields in Insightly with Enrollments, Org Units, Grades, Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) 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 Insightly keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.
Common use cases
- 01 Write product usage or billing data from internal databases into Insightly custom fields for account context
- 02 Deduplicate and align customer records between Insightly and an ERP or invoicing system
- 03 Sync Assignment (Dropbox) submissions and feedback into a reporting database or downstream review tool.
- 04 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.
Common sync patterns
Ownership and territory follow the org chart
When a person changes team, manager, or region in D2l Brightspace, their accounts and territory assignments in Insightly 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 Insightly 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.

| Grades Grade objects, categories, schemes, and per-user grade values in the Learning Environment (le) component; values can be read out and written back onto the gradebook. | Leads Unqualified prospects sync in from forms and enrichment sources before conversion. | Grades is specific to D2l Brightspace and Leads to Insightly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between D2l Brightspace and Insightly
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.
D2l Brightspace Insightly Sub-second propagation
DetectionD2l Brightspace notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling Valence endpoints with date/bookmark filters, differential Brightspace Data Sets (BDS) bulk exports for changed rows via the Data Hub, and.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Insightly through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
