Why teams connect Firebase and Xactly

Treat Xactly like part of your database: its records live in Firebase as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in Firebase, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Orders, Credits, Transactions (Commission & Bonus), Participants (Payees) from Xactly into Subcollections, Realtime Database Nodes, Authentication Users, Cloud Storage Objects in Firebase with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Xactly with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Participants, Positions, Titles, and Quotas from an HRIS/HCM and planning tools into Xactly so the org hierarchy and targets stay aligned with headcount changes.
  • 02 Push approved Payment Summary amounts from Incent into a payroll or accounts-payable system so payouts are paid from the mastered comp result.
  • 03 Write CRM-side changes (plan, status, owner) back into Firestore documents the app reads.
  • 04 Combine Firebase Authentication users with billing and CRM records into one customer table.

Common sync patterns

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Xactly become tables in Firebase you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Firebase sync onto the matching records in Xactly, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Xactly API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Firebase and Xactly

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.

Firebase objects Xactly objects How this pairing syncs
Subcollections Nested collections under documents, typically flattened into related tables during sync. Transactions (Commission & Bonus) Calculated commission and bonus line items produced by Incent's calculation engine; read as the output of comp runs for reporting and downstream payout, so effectively read-only results. Subcollections is specific to Firebase and Transactions (Commission & Bonus) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Realtime Database Nodes JSON tree paths in the older Realtime Database, synced by path. Participants (Payees) Sales reps and payees keyed to positions; loaded and updated from HRIS/HCM source data through Connect (write) and read for roster reporting, so read and write. Realtime Database Nodes is specific to Firebase and Participants (Payees) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Authentication Users User accounts read into CRMs and warehouses for customer records. Positions & Titles Org-hierarchy positions and titles that credits and quotas roll up to; loaded and maintained through Connect (write) and read to resolve the hierarchy, so read and write. Authentication Users is specific to Firebase and Positions & Titles to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cloud Storage Objects Files referenced from documents; usually synced as metadata plus URLs. Quotas / Targets Period quota and target values per position or plan; loaded from planning tools through Connect (write) and read for attainment reporting, so read and write. Cloud Storage Objects is specific to Firebase and Quotas / Targets to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cloud Functions Triggers Server-side hooks that fire on document changes and can push updates outward. Payment Summary (Payable) Approved payable amounts per participant per period; read as the output that feeds payroll and accounts payable, so effectively read-only. Cloud Functions Triggers is specific to Firebase and Payment Summary (Payable) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Firestore Collections Top-level groupings of documents that a sync maps to tables or SaaS objects. Products & Customers Product and customer/account master used in crediting rules and reporting; loaded and updated from CRM/ERP through Connect (write) and read for lookups, so read and write. Firestore Collections is specific to Firebase and Products & Customers to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Firebase and Xactly

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.

Firebase Xactly Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Firebase for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Real-time snapshot listeners on Firestore queries and Cloud Functions triggers on document changes.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Xactly as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Xactly Firebase Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Xactly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC log for external tools to consume.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Firebase: Subject to Firestore's documented operation quotas and per-document write throughput limits.
  • Xactly: Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.

How the Firebase and Xactly connectors work

Firebase

Integration surface
REST and gRPC APIs, typically accessed through the Firebase Admin SDK
Authentication
Google service account credentials (IAM) for server-side access; Firebase Auth tokens for client contexts
Change detection
Real-time snapshot listeners on Firestore queries and Cloud Functions triggers on document changes
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to Firestore's documented operation quotas and per-document write throughput limits

Xactly

Integration surface
Xactly Connect REST API v2 (JSON), plus ODBC/JDBC drivers over the same ANSI-SQL data model. Incent data is exposed as SQL-queryable objects (for example xactly_order, xactly_credit, xactly_transaction, xactly_payment); data is loaded and extracted through Connect load/query steps and server-side ETL Pipelines. The base host is region/pod-specific (for example https://<pod>.xactlycorp.com).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Xactly Connect API Gateway (bearer tokens issued on behalf of an Xactly Incent user), with HTTP Basic authentication using a dedicated Xactly Connect service-user's credentials also supported for the Connect REST API v2. The connecting user needs Connect/API access plus the relevant object permissions in Incent.
Change detection
No CDC log for external tools to consume. Incremental sync uses SQL predicates on modified/last-updated timestamp columns (for example WHERE modified_date > watermark) against Connect's queryable objects, or scheduled Connect ETL Pipelines that pull deltas since the last run. Xactly Connect has no outbound HTTP webhooks, so change detection is pull/ETL-based.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.
