Why teams connect Egnyte and Microsoft 365

Land the records and documents that build up in Microsoft 365 into Egnyte as they are created, and surface Egnyte's file details on the Microsoft 365 records that point to them, without an export job to maintain.

Microsoft 365 and Egnyte hold different kinds of data. Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365 produces has to be kept somewhere durable, and many of the files Egnyte stores are the very documents Microsoft 365's records point to.

Stacksync syncs Calendar Events, Contacts, OneDrive Files (driveItems), SharePoint Sites & Lists in Microsoft 365 with Events and Audit reports, Files, Folders, Users in Egnyte in real time. Records and attachments created in Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365, 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 Mirror calendar events into scheduling or CRM tools so meetings appear on customer timelines.
  • 02 Sync SharePoint lists with operational databases so business users edit in SharePoint while systems read SQL.
  • 03 Provision and deprovision Egnyte Users and Groups from an HRIS or IdP so folder access follows employee onboarding and offboarding.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Files and Folders between Egnyte and an operational database or another content store, keeping the folder hierarchy aligned.

Common sync patterns

A copy that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Egnyte preserves records and documents even as they age out of Microsoft 365 or get changed inside it, so history stays intact and reachable.

Feed a data lake or downstream pipeline

Structured records from Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365 produces into Egnyte

Records and events from Microsoft 365 — 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.

What you can sync between Egnyte and Microsoft 365

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 Microsoft 365 objects How this pairing syncs
Users Accounts managed via the Users API; provisioned, updated, and deactivated in sync with an HRIS or identity provider. Users Entra ID user accounts synced with HR and identity systems. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Groups Microsoft 365 and security groups kept aligned with org structure and access rules. 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. Planner & To Do Tasks Task items synced with project and work-management tools. Folders is specific to Egnyte and Planner & To Do Tasks to Microsoft 365 — 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. Mail Messages Exchange Online messages read for logging, archiving, or activity capture. Permissions is specific to Egnyte and Mail Messages to Microsoft 365 — 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. Calendar Events Events synced with scheduling tools and CRMs for meeting visibility. Links is specific to Egnyte and Calendar Events to Microsoft 365 — 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. Contacts Personal and org contacts kept consistent with CRM contact records. Metadata is specific to Egnyte and Contacts to Microsoft 365 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and Microsoft 365

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 Microsoft 365 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 Microsoft 365 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Microsoft 365 Egnyte Sub-second propagation

DetectionMicrosoft 365 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Graph change notifications (webhooks) plus delta queries for incremental sync.

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.
