Why teams connect DealCloud and Ironclad

Sync what happens in Ironclad with the customer records in DealCloud, in real time and in both directions.

The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever Ironclad holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.

Stacksync connects Obligations, Webhooks, Workflow Approvals, Signature Packets in Ironclad to Deal, Company, Contact, Fund in DealCloud with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Ironclad update the matching contact or account in DealCloud, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Ironclad can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push Obligations and renewal dates from Ironclad into a finance or task system so post-signature commitments and renewals are tracked and actioned on time.
  • 02 Pull executed contract PDFs from Records attachments into a document store or archive as each workflow completes.
  • 03 Push portfolio and fund performance data from a warehouse into DealCloud so dealmakers see up-to-date metrics on each investment.
  • 04 Keep DealCloud contacts and relationships in sync with an enrichment or email platform to maintain accurate firm-wide relationship intelligence.

Common sync patterns

Where Ironclad handles support or shared inboxes

Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in DealCloud, so sales sees open issues before the next call.

Where Ironclad supplies contact or company data

Enriched fields land directly on records in DealCloud, and refreshes keep them from going stale.

Where Ironclad processes payments

Charges, refunds, and subscription changes appear on the account in DealCloud, so revenue context lives with the relationship.

What you can sync between DealCloud and Ironclad

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.

DealCloud objects Ironclad objects How this pairing syncs
Contact Synced with incremental and full sync. Workflow Approvals Per-workflow approval requests and their state; read to report approval status and cycle time, and status changes arrive live through the workflow_approval_status_changed event. Contact is specific to DealCloud and Workflow Approvals to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fund Synced with incremental and full sync. Signature Packets The e-signature packets on a workflow (sent, signatures collected, fully signed); read to track signing progress, with packet events delivered by webhook for real-time status. Fund is specific to DealCloud and Signature Packets to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Investment Synced with incremental and full sync. Workflow Documents Draft and executed documents attached to a workflow; retrieved to pull generated or signed files out into a document store or archive. Investment is specific to DealCloud and Workflow Documents to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Relationship Synced with incremental and full sync. Workflows The core unit of Ironclad: a live contract process (NDA, MSA, order form) moving through creation, review, approval, and signature. Launched via POST, updated via PATCH, and read for status, so contract processes move two-way between Ironclad and a database, CRM, or ERP. Relationship is specific to DealCloud and Workflows to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activity Synced with incremental and full sync. Records The Repository of executed and stored contracts with metadata (value, counterparty, key dates, type) and attachments; full create, read, update, and delete so signed-contract data and PDFs sync to a warehouse, ERP, or CRM. Activity is specific to DealCloud and Records to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Task Synced with incremental and full sync. Entities Structured records for counterparties and other parties linked to workflows and records; read and written to keep company and vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. Task is specific to DealCloud and Entities to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between DealCloud and Ironclad

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.

DealCloud Ironclad Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DealCloud for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Incremental via each entry's last-modified timestamp.

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

Ironclad DealCloud Sub-second propagation

DetectionIronclad notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • DealCloud: API request limits apply per firm tenant; Stacksync manages throttling and retries automatically.
  • Ironclad: Limits are enforced per account per minute by endpoint: GET Workflows 400 and POST/PATCH Workflows 40; GET Records 600 and POST/PATCH Records 200; GET Entities 600 and POST/PATCH Entities 200; Webhooks 600; all other endpoints 800. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429, and Ironclad recommends exponential backoff with jitter.

How the DealCloud and Ironclad connectors work

DealCloud

Integration surface
REST API (DealCloud Data API v2)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client-credentials; a DealCloud administrator generates a client ID and secret in the DealCloud admin API settings and grants Stacksync the required scopes
Change detection
Incremental via each entry's last-modified timestamp; DealCloud has no universal native change-data-capture, so Stacksync polls modified rows on an interval

Ironclad

Integration surface
REST/JSON Public API (CLM API) at https://na1.ironcladapp.com/public/api/v1 (NA1 and EU1 regions plus a demo/sandbox), with a native Webhooks subscription API; described by an OpenAPI 3.1 spec.
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 - Authorization Code grant (PKCE for public clients) and Client Credentials grant for server-to-server; access tokens are Bearer, expire after 6 hours, and every endpoint is gated by a resource scope. The legacy static API bearer token was deprecated on 2024-11-22.
Change detection
Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing endpoint up to 10 times over about 13.6 hours with exponential backoff. Otherwise poll the list endpoints by last-updated. There is no database change-data-capture log.
