Why teams connect Egnyte and Odoo

Move the documents and data that Odoo produces into Egnyte as files, and let files stored in Egnyte update the records they belong to in Odoo, continuously and without exports or manual filing.

Odoo runs the business on structured records: Invoices (account.move), Products (product.template / product.product), CRM Leads (crm.lead), Purchase Orders (purchase.order). Egnyte holds files and the metadata that describes them: Links, Metadata, Events and Audit reports, Files. The two do not share a customer table or an order ledger. What they share is documents. Nearly every record Odoo touches produces a file that belongs in storage, whether an invoice, a purchase order, a statement, or a shipping doc, and many files that land in Egnyte, from signed contracts to vendor bills to receipts, describe a transaction Odoo needs to record. Left unconnected, that link is maintained by hand: someone exports a PDF and drags it into a folder, or downloads a file and keys its details into a record.

Stacksync keeps Invoices (account.move), Products (product.template / product.product), CRM Leads (crm.lead), Purchase Orders (purchase.order) in Odoo and Links, Metadata, Events and Audit reports, Files in Egnyte in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. A document and its details, the customer, the type, the date, an amount, an order or invoice number, are mapped field by field, so a file arrives in Egnyte already labeled and filed, and metadata captured against a stored file can create or update the matching record in Odoo. Changes on either side show up within seconds, with conflict resolution in place of nightly exports and manual filing.

The result is that a transaction and the document that backs it stay together. Finance, operations, and audit teams find the file behind a record without digging through folders, and the record in Odoo and the file in Egnyte never describe two different versions of the same document.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync employee records from an HR system of record into Odoo for expense and timesheet workflows.
  • 02 Sync Odoo contacts and CRM leads with an external CRM when sales runs outside Odoo but invoicing stays in it.
  • 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

Audit-ready retention

Every transaction's supporting file lives in Egnyte beside its metadata, giving finance and audit teams a complete, searchable trail tied back to the record in Odoo.

Documents filed with their context

Files that Odoo produces land in Egnyte labeled with the customer, document type, and reference number they belong to, so the right copy is one search away instead of buried in a folder.

Metadata that files itself

Record fields from Odoo, like customer, date, amount, type, and reference number, become the metadata and tags on the stored file in Egnyte, so storage stays organized without anyone tagging by hand.

What you can sync between Egnyte and Odoo

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 Odoo objects How this pairing syncs
Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. Contacts (res.partner) The unified person/company record used across sales, invoicing, and purchasing; the anchor for CRM syncs. Folders is specific to Egnyte and Contacts (res.partner) to Odoo — 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. Sales Orders (sale.order) Quotations and confirmed orders synced with e-commerce and external CRMs. Users is specific to Egnyte and Sales Orders (sale.order) to Odoo — 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. Invoices (account.move) Customer invoices and journal entries synced with accounting and reporting tools. Groups is specific to Egnyte and Invoices (account.move) to Odoo — 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. Products (product.template / product.product) Catalog and variant data distributed to storefronts and quoting tools. Permissions is specific to Egnyte and Products (product.template / product.product) to Odoo — 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. CRM Leads (crm.lead) Leads and opportunities synced with marketing and enrichment systems. Links is specific to Egnyte and CRM Leads (crm.lead) to Odoo — 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. Purchase Orders (purchase.order) Procurement documents shared with supplier-facing systems. Metadata is specific to Egnyte and Purchase Orders (purchase.order) to Odoo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and Odoo

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

Odoo Egnyte Sub-second propagation

DetectionOdoo notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on the write_date timestamp every record carries.

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.
  • Odoo: Self-hosted instances have no fixed rate limits; Odoo Online is subject to the platform's fair-use limits.
