Why teams connect D2l Brightspace and Microsoft Dynamics 365
Keep the people, teams, and status that Microsoft Dynamics 365 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 Microsoft Dynamics 365 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 Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Cases (Incidents) in Microsoft Dynamics 365 with Assignments (Dropbox), Groups and Sections, Users, Enrollments 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 Microsoft Dynamics 365 within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Microsoft Dynamics 365 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 Replicate standard and custom Dataverse tables into a warehouse for reporting.
- 02 Enrich leads from external data sources and write scores back onto Dynamics records.
- 03 Write Grades reconciled in a warehouse back onto Brightspace grade objects, and read grade values out for transcript and completion reporting.
- 04 Provision Org Units such as course offerings and sections, then enroll learners from an operational database when a cohort or class is created upstream.
Common sync patterns
Where Microsoft Dynamics 365 routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org
When someone changes teams or managers in D2l Brightspace, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Microsoft Dynamics 365 update to match, so work reaches whoever holds the role now.
Onboarding: access ready on day one
A new hire recorded in D2l Brightspace creates the matching user in Microsoft Dynamics 365 with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.
Offboarding: no standing access after a departure
When someone is marked as leaving in D2l Brightspace, the matching account in Microsoft Dynamics 365 is deactivated or flagged, so departures do not leave open access behind.
What you can sync between D2l Brightspace and Microsoft Dynamics 365
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 | Microsoft Dynamics 365 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. | Products Catalog records aligned with ERP item masters. | Grades is specific to D2l Brightspace and Products to Microsoft Dynamics 365 — 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. | Activities Emails, calls, and tasks captured for engagement analytics. | Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) is specific to D2l Brightspace and Activities to Microsoft Dynamics 365 — 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. | Custom Tables Dataverse tables that carry business-specific entities through the same API surface. | Quizzes is specific to D2l Brightspace and Custom Tables to Microsoft Dynamics 365 — 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. | Accounts Company records synced bi-directionally with ERPs, databases, and billing systems. | Assignments (Dropbox) is specific to D2l Brightspace and Accounts to Microsoft Dynamics 365 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between D2l Brightspace and Microsoft Dynamics 365
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 Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sub-second propagation
