Why teams connect Egnyte and Gainsight

Land the records and documents that build up in Gainsight into Egnyte as they are created, and surface Egnyte's file details on the Gainsight records that point to them, without an export job to maintain.

Gainsight and Egnyte hold different kinds of data. Gainsight carries records and the activity around them — the tickets, messages, orders, or issues a team works through, often with documents attached. Egnyte holds files and the metadata that describes them. Where the two meet is narrow but real: much of what Gainsight produces has to be kept somewhere durable, and many of the files Egnyte stores are the very documents Gainsight's records point to.

Stacksync syncs Success Plan, Task and Playbook, Custom Objects, Company in Gainsight with Events and Audit reports, Files, Folders, Users in Egnyte in real time. Records and attachments created in Gainsight are written into Egnyte as objects or files within seconds of being created. In the other direction, the metadata Egnyte keeps about those files — name, location, owner, modified date — flows back onto the matching record in Gainsight, so people see the current document without leaving the tool. Field-level mapping controls exactly what crosses over and in which direction, so you keep a durable copy of what matters without an extract to schedule or a nightly dump that leaves the copy a day behind.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read Timeline Activities and Success Plan objectives into a reporting database for churn, QBR, and CSM-productivity dashboards.
  • 02 Keep Relationship records aligned with a billing system or ERP so multi-product customers map to the correct contracts and invoices.
  • 03 Stream Egnyte audit Events (file, login, permission, and Link changes) into a warehouse or SIEM for compliance and governance reporting.
  • 04 Provision and deprovision Egnyte Users and Groups from an HRIS or IdP so folder access follows employee onboarding and offboarding.

Common sync patterns

Feed a data lake or downstream pipeline

Structured records from Gainsight land in Egnyte as objects a data lake, search index, or processing pipeline can read, without a custom extract to build and babysit.

Archive what Gainsight produces into Egnyte

Records and events from Gainsight — tickets, messages, orders, or issues — are written into Egnyte as objects or files as they change, giving you a durable, addressable copy for retention and audit.

Where Gainsight generates attachments: keep the files in Egnyte

Documents attached to records in Gainsight land in the storage system automatically, with the source record holding a link back, so files live in one governed place instead of inside the tool.

What you can sync between Egnyte and Gainsight

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.

Egnyte objects Gainsight objects How this pairing syncs
Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Company Customer/account master in Gainsight CS; two-way synced with CRM and warehouse customer tables to keep ARR, owner, and renewal fields aligned. Groups is specific to Egnyte and Company to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. Person (People) Contacts associated to companies through the Company Person junction; synced two-way with CRM contacts and warehouse person records. Permissions is specific to Egnyte and Person (People) to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. Relationship Sub-units within a company for multi-product or multi-team accounts; synced so each maps to the right contract in billing or an ERP. Links is specific to Egnyte and Relationship to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. CTA (Call to Action) Risk and expansion alerts that drive CSM plays; often synced to ticketing or project tools so follow-up work is tracked where teams operate. Metadata is specific to Egnyte and CTA (Call to Action) to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. Scorecard Fact Health scores and measures per Company or Relationship; usage metrics from a warehouse are written in so scores reflect live telemetry. Events and Audit reports is specific to Egnyte and Scorecard Fact to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Timeline Activity Logged calls, emails, and notes; usually read out into a reporting database for QBR and churn analysis. Files is specific to Egnyte and Timeline Activity to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and Gainsight

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.

Egnyte Gainsight Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Gainsight Egnyte Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gainsight for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
  • Gainsight: Synchronous APIs are capped near 100 calls/min and 50,000/day; the asynchronous Bulk API allows 10 calls/hour and 100/day. Both are fixed-window limits, and the applicable per-hour and per-day limits are returned in the x-ratelimit-limit response header.
