Why teams connect D2l Brightspace and Seismic
Keep the people who own accounts in Seismic 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.
Seismic 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 Users, User Groups, Teamsites, LiveSend Links in Seismic 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 Seismic keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.
Common use cases
- 01 Extract content-interaction and LiveSend engagement from the Reporting API v2 into a warehouse to tie asset views to CRM Opportunities.
- 02 Sync Library Content metadata and Custom Property Schemas with a DAM or PIM so one taxonomy governs assets across systems.
- 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
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.
Where D2l Brightspace tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync
A person recorded in D2l Brightspace, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in Seismic, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.
New team members provisioned when they are hired
When D2l Brightspace records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Seismic, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.
What you can sync between D2l Brightspace and Seismic
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 | Seismic objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 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. | Users User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. | |
| Org Units The org structure — course offerings, sections, departments, and semesters; read for hierarchy and created/updated to provision courses from a database. | LiveSend Links Trackable content-share links created via the engagement API; their open and view engagement is read back through Reporting. | Org Units is specific to D2l Brightspace and LiveSend Links to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Digital Sales Rooms Buyer-facing microsites (DSRs); lifecycle and content-change events surface via webhooks, currently marked Early Access. | Grades is specific to D2l Brightspace and Digital Sales Rooms to Seismic — 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. | Reporting Activities Content-interaction, engagement, and usage analytics extracted read-only through the ETL-oriented Reporting API v2 for a warehouse. | Content (Modules, Topics, and User Progress) is specific to D2l Brightspace and Reporting Activities to Seismic — 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. | Library Content Documents, decks, and assets stored in teamsites; created, moved, and retrieved via the Content Management API, each with a contentId. | Quizzes is specific to D2l Brightspace and Library Content to Seismic — 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. | Content Versions Version history for a library item; new versions upload via API and old ones expire, with events firing on ContentManager webhooks. | Assignments (Dropbox) is specific to D2l Brightspace and Content Versions to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between D2l Brightspace and Seismic
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.
- Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.

How the D2l Brightspace and Seismic connectors work
D2l Brightspace
- Integration surface
- Brightspace (Valence) REST API split into independently-versioned Learning Platform (lp) and Learning Environment (le) components, plus the Data Hub / Data Export Framework and Brightspace Data Streams
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 authorization-code grant against the D2L auth service (auth.brightspace.com); a registered app holds a client ID and secret with per-scope grants (group:resource:action, e.g. users:userdata:read), short-lived access tokens, and refresh tokens
- Change detection
- Polling Valence endpoints with date/bookmark filters, differential Brightspace Data Sets (BDS) bulk exports for changed rows via the Data Hub, and Brightspace Data Streams webhooks (xAPI activity events) for near-real-time signals
- Capabilities
- read · write · webhooks
- Rate limits
- 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.
Seismic
- Integration surface
- REST Integration APIs and Reporting API v2
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect; Bearer token in the Authorization header, via Authorization Code (user context) or client-credentials app-only flows
- Change detection
- Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend events; the Reporting API v2 is polled for batch historical extracts (ETL-oriented, not high-frequency)
