Why teams connect D2l Brightspace and ZoomInfo

Flow ZoomInfo data into D2l Brightspace in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

ZoomInfo is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into D2l Brightspace, so D2l Brightspace always reflects the current state of ZoomInfo — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

ZoomInfo 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.

Common use cases

  • 01 Enrich CRM accounts and contacts on a schedule so firmographics, titles, and phone numbers stay current.
  • 02 Sync intent signals into the CRM or warehouse to trigger outbound plays on in-market accounts.
  • 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

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 ZoomInfo, 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 ZoomInfo, 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 ZoomInfo update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

How changes propagate between D2l Brightspace and ZoomInfo

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 ZoomInfo 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.

DeliveryZoomInfo does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: ZoomInfo's output flows back as field updates on the originating D2l Brightspace records.

ZoomInfo D2l Brightspace Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls ZoomInfo for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Scheduled re-enrichment and polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to D2l Brightspace through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

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.
  • ZoomInfo: Usage is metered by credits and contract-based limits rather than a single public rate limit.
