Why teams connect D2l Brightspace and Klaviyo

Keep the people, teams, and status that Klaviyo and D2l Brightspace share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.

Each tool in Klaviyo keeps its own list of who can use it: users, members, or agents, along with the team they sit on and whether they are still active. D2l Brightspace is the authoritative record of the same people as employees, with their department, manager, and employment status. When those two are connected only by manual account admin or a periodic export, the work tools drift: new hires wait days for access, team and manager changes never catch up, and people who have left keep standing accounts.

Stacksync syncs Catalog Items, Tags, Profiles, Lists in Klaviyo with Quizzes, Assignments (Dropbox), Groups and Sections, Users in D2l Brightspace bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in D2l Brightspace creates or updates the matching user in Klaviyo within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Klaviyo captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to D2l Brightspace in whichever direction you configure.

Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps its own extras; only the shared facts, who a person is, which team they belong to, and whether their access should be on, are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync catalog items from an ERP or PIM so product recommendations and back-in-stock flows use current data
  • 02 Sync customer profiles between Klaviyo and the CRM or warehouse so segments can use fields beyond storefront data
  • 03 Provision Org Units such as course offerings and sections, then enroll learners from an operational database when a cohort or class is created upstream.
  • 04 Pull Content user progress and Quiz attempt results into a Postgres warehouse for engagement and completion analytics.

Common sync patterns

Offboarding: no standing access after a departure

When someone is marked as leaving in D2l Brightspace, the matching account in Klaviyo is deactivated or flagged, so departures do not leave open access behind.

One employee directory

A person's name, title, contact details, or status corrected in either system updates the other, so both sides stop maintaining separate copies of the same person.

Org and team structure kept current

Department, team, and reporting-line changes from D2l Brightspace keep the groups, queues, or projects in Klaviyo assigned to the right people.

What you can sync between D2l Brightspace and Klaviyo

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.

D2l Brightspace objects Klaviyo objects How this pairing syncs
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. Lists Static audience memberships sync in from CRMs and forms for targeting. Grades is specific to D2l Brightspace and Lists to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) Course content structure plus per-user completion; progress is read into a warehouse and topics can be created and updated via the API. Segments Dynamic audiences are readable so other tools can mirror who qualifies. Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) is specific to D2l Brightspace and Segments to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Quizzes Quiz objects and per-user attempts and results; attempt data is read out for engagement and completion analytics. Events Timestamped behavioral records tied to metrics; external order and product events are pushed in to trigger flows. Quizzes is specific to D2l Brightspace and Events to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Assignments (Dropbox) Dropbox folders, submissions, and feedback; submission and evaluation data is read into reporting systems and feedback can be written back. Metrics Event type definitions organize the activity stream used in segmentation and attribution. Assignments (Dropbox) is specific to D2l Brightspace and Metrics to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups and Sections Group categories, groups, and section membership within an org unit; enrollments are read and written to keep cohort assignments aligned. Campaigns Email and SMS sends expose performance data for warehouse-based reporting. Groups and Sections is specific to D2l Brightspace and Campaigns to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users User accounts in the Learning Platform (lp) component; created, read, updated, and deleted through the Valence API and typically synced two-way with an SIS or HRIS. Flows Automation definitions and their engagement data sync outward for attribution. Users is specific to D2l Brightspace and Flows to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between D2l Brightspace and Klaviyo

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.

Rate-limit considerations

  • D2l Brightspace: Per-caller token-bucket credit scheme; each route costs credits, responses carry X-Rate-Limit-Remaining, and over-quota calls return HTTP 429. D2L can adjust per-route credit costs.
  • Klaviyo: Per-endpoint burst and steady rate limits apply.
