Why teams connect Egnyte and Gatekeeper

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

Gatekeeper and Egnyte hold different kinds of data. Gatekeeper 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 Gatekeeper produces has to be kept somewhere durable, and many of the files Egnyte stores are the very documents Gatekeeper's records point to.

Stacksync syncs Custom data groups, Users, Categories, Contracts in Gatekeeper with Groups, Permissions, Links, Metadata in Egnyte in real time. Records and attachments created in Gatekeeper 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 Gatekeeper, 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 Two-way sync Contracts between Gatekeeper and an ERP or warehouse so value, renewal dates, owner, and status stay current without manual re-keying.
  • 02 Sync Vendors (Suppliers) with a CRM or ERP so counterparty, compliance, contact, and spend records match across the VCLM and the systems of record.
  • 03 Write custom Metadata such as classification tags and project fields onto Files and Folders from a governance or DMS system, and read it back for reporting.
  • 04 Mirror folder Permissions from a directory or access-management system so entitlements stay consistent across teams.

Common sync patterns

Archive what Gatekeeper produces into Egnyte

Records and events from Gatekeeper — 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 Gatekeeper generates attachments: keep the files in Egnyte

Documents attached to records in Gatekeeper 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.

Where Egnyte holds the source documents: file details on the record

A file's name, location, owner, and modified date from Egnyte sync onto the matching record in Gatekeeper, so whoever is working there sees the current version without switching tools.

What you can sync between Egnyte and Gatekeeper

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 Gatekeeper objects How this pairing syncs
Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Files Document files attached to contracts and vendors - executed PDFs, certificates, and compliance evidence; read to pull signed files and evidence out, or written to push generated documents in. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Users Accounts managed via the Users API; provisioned, updated, and deactivated in sync with an HRIS or identity provider. Users Gatekeeper user and team records governed by role-based access; read to map contract and vendor owners, approvers, and internal contacts to CRM or HR records. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. Vendors (Suppliers) Company records for counterparties and suppliers with onboarding status, compliance, risk, contacts, and spend; read and written to keep vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. Folders is specific to Egnyte and Vendors (Suppliers) to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Workflow form data The structured data captured on Gatekeeper workflow forms (intake requests, vendor onboarding, risk assessments); exposed by the API since 2025 so form results sync into an operational database, not only contract and vendor records. Groups is specific to Egnyte and Workflow form data to Gatekeeper — 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. Custom data groups Customer-configured custom fields and data groups; because the JSON:API and its docs are dynamic, any custom data added in Configuration exposes the same read/write endpoints as the standard objects and syncs the same way. Permissions is specific to Egnyte and Custom data groups to Gatekeeper — 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. Categories The classification taxonomy applied to contracts and vendors (type, department, business unit); synced so categorization stays consistent between Gatekeeper and downstream reporting or ERP dimensions. Links is specific to Egnyte and Categories to Gatekeeper — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and Gatekeeper

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 Gatekeeper 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 Gatekeeper through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Gatekeeper Egnyte Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gatekeeper for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log.

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.
  • Gatekeeper: Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.

How the Egnyte and Gatekeeper connectors work

Egnyte

Integration surface
REST Public API (pubapi/v1) with File System, Users, Groups, Permissions, Links, Metadata, Events, and Webhooks endpoints
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 scoped access tokens (Authorization Code or Implicit for partner apps, Resource Owner Password for internal apps, Refresh Token flow); token sent in the Authorization header
Change detection
Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata, permission, and comment events
Capabilities

Rate limits
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

Gatekeeper

Integration surface
RESTful API following the JSON:API specification, tenant-scoped with interactive docs at {tenant}.gatekeeperhq.com/api_docs and a published Postman collection. The API is dynamic: it exposes the standard Contract and Vendor objects plus any custom data groups and workflow-form data configured in the tenant.
Authentication
API keys created and managed under Configuration > API Keys and passed as a token; each key carries granular per-endpoint permissions set to read-only or write, so access is scoped per object. Multiple keys can be issued and revoked independently.
Change detection
No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log; detect changes by polling the JSON:API list endpoints filtered and sorted on updated-at timestamps. Gatekeeper's own event automation - Workflow Engine phase transitions and Interconnect process orchestration - runs inside the platform rather than as a subscribable webhook stream.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.
