Why teams connect Egnyte and Nimble

Keep the paperwork with the relationship: Nimble and Egnyte share every customer's records and files in real time, in both directions.

Nimble holds the customer relationship as structured records; Egnyte holds the files that belong to those relationships, from contracts and proposals to signed agreements and statements of work. The two are linked in practice and disconnected in software: someone downloads a document, renames it, and uploads it to the right folder, or exports records out to storage for retention. Done by hand, files drift away from the records they belong to and copies fall out of date.

Stacksync keeps Notes, Tags, Custom fields, Contacts in Nimble aligned with Users, Groups, Permissions, Links in Egnyte, in real time. A new account or deal can open its own folder in Egnyte; a document filed in Egnyte can surface as a link and metadata on the matching record in Nimble; and records from Nimble can be written into Egnyte as files or objects for backup, archival, and compliance. You choose which side owns what, and Stacksync keeps the two consistent as either one changes.

Common use cases

  • 01 Feed Nimble activity and task data into reporting dashboards without manual CSV exports.
  • 02 Sync Nimble contacts and companies into Postgres so ops teams can query socially enriched profile data with SQL.
  • 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

One place for a customer's files

Attachments that accumulate against a record in Nimble collect in that customer's folder in Egnyte, so the full document history lives in one place and is reachable by anyone who needs it.

A folder per account or deal

When an account or deal is created in Nimble, a matching folder or container opens in Egnyte, named and organized the same way, so files have a home the moment they are needed.

Documents linked back to the record

A contract, proposal, or signed agreement filed in Egnyte surfaces as a link on the matching record in Nimble, so the customer's paperwork sits with the relationship instead of a shared drive.

What you can sync between Egnyte and Nimble

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 Nimble 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. Contacts Person records with multi-value fields for email, phone, and social profiles; the primary sync entity Files is specific to Egnyte and Contacts to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. Companies Stored as contact records with a company record type, so they sync through the same contacts resource Folders is specific to Egnyte and Companies to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Accounts managed via the Users API; provisioned, updated, and deactivated in sync with an HRIS or identity provider. Deals Pipeline records linked to contacts, synced to keep revenue systems aligned with sales activity Users is specific to Egnyte and Deals to Nimble — 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. Tasks To-do items tied to contacts, mirrored into work-management tools or reporting tables Groups is specific to Egnyte and Tasks to Nimble — 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. Activities Calls, events, and interaction history used for engagement reporting outside Nimble Permissions is specific to Egnyte and Activities to Nimble — 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. Notes Free-text records attached to contacts, replicated for a complete account timeline Links is specific to Egnyte and Notes to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and Nimble

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

Nimble Egnyte Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Nimble for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on record modification timestamps.

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.
  • Nimble: Subject to per-account API request quotas.
