Why teams connect Folk CRM and Okta
Keep the people Folk CRM and Okta both track in agreement in real time: the internal users who own records in Folk CRM, and the customer login accounts in Okta.
A CRM and an identity system usually describe different populations. Folk CRM tracks customers, contacts, and the deals in motion; Okta governs who is allowed to sign in and what they can reach. Where the two meet is people. The reps who own records in Folk CRM are the same employees Okta provisions and disables, and when Okta also runs the login accounts for your product, the customers in Folk CRM are the same users Okta authenticates. Left unconnected, a departure in Okta leaves stale ownership sitting in Folk CRM, and a signup in Okta never reaches the account it belongs to.
Stacksync syncs People, Companies, Groups, Custom fields in Folk CRM with Devices, Users, Groups, Applications in Okta in real time and in both directions, matching on email or an external ID and mapping field by field. You decide which system owns which fields, and new users, role and group changes, deactivations, and account status move within seconds instead of waiting on a quarterly access review or a manual export.
Common use cases
- 01 Mirror folk groups into a reporting database to track pipeline and outreach coverage.
- 02 Keep folk and a billing or customer success tool aligned on company records as deals close.
- 03 Drive Group Rules and policy assignments from HR attributes so access changes the moment a title, department, or location changes.
- 04 Sync Groups and their memberships two-way between Okta and a database or IdP so downstream app access stays aligned with source-of-truth org data.
Common sync patterns
Where Okta governs your workforce: CRM users kept current
New employees in Okta become active users in Folk CRM with the right role, and group or department changes update their access and team, so the CRM's user list matches the directory without an admin re-keying it.
Deactivation and record hand-off
When someone is disabled in Okta, the matching user in Folk CRM is deactivated too, and the accounts, contacts, and deals they owned are flagged for reassignment, so nothing goes unattended after they leave.
Where Okta runs customer login accounts: identity on the customer record
Signup, account status, multi-factor enrollment, and last-login from Okta land on the matching contact or account in Folk CRM, so go-to-market teams see who has actually activated and who has gone dormant.
What you can sync between Folk CRM and Okta
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.
| Folk CRM objects | Okta objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Groups Shared workspaces that organize contacts; group membership is often the field integrations act on. | Groups Okta groups (OKTA_GROUP, APP_GROUP, BUILT_IN) and their memberships; OKTA_GROUP records and membership are written to drive app and resource access. | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. | |
| Custom fields Group-scoped attributes that receive enriched or computed values from external systems. | Users Universal Directory user records with profile attributes, credentials, and lifecycle status (staged, active, suspended, deprovisioned); full CRUD, so users are created, updated, activated, and deactivated to match an HR or identity source. | Custom fields is specific to Folk CRM and Users to Okta — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Notes Free-text context attached to people and companies, readable for reporting. | Applications App integrations (SAML, OIDC, SWA) with per-user and per-group assignments; read and updated to manage which identities can reach each downstream app. | Notes is specific to Folk CRM and Applications to Okta — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Reminders Follow-up items that can be created from external triggers. | Group Rules Dynamic rules that add users to groups from profile attributes; read and written to automate access based on department, title, or location. | Reminders is specific to Folk CRM and Group Rules to Okta — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| People Contact records; the primary entity synced with outreach and enrichment tools. | Factors (Authenticators) MFA enrollments per user (Okta Verify, WebAuthn, SMS, email); read for security-posture reporting and reset when a device is lost or rotated. | People is specific to Folk CRM and Factors (Authenticators) to Okta — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Companies Organization records linked to people and kept aligned with billing or CS systems. | Policies Sign-on, password, and authenticator-enrollment policies with their rules; read to audit access controls or updated to manage them centrally. | Companies is specific to Folk CRM and Policies to Okta — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Folk CRM and Okta
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.
Folk CRM Okta Sub-second propagation
DetectionFolk CRM notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, with polling of list endpoints as a fallback.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Okta through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Okta Folk CRM Sub-second propagation
DetectionOkta notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Event Hooks send an HTTPS POST to a subscribed endpoint on events such as user.lifecycle.create and group.user_membership.add (after a one-time.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Folk CRM through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Folk CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
- Okta: Rate limits are enforced per org, per endpoint group, per minute and vary by Okta edition; responses carry X-Rate-Limit-Limit, X-Rate-Limit-Remaining, and X-Rate-Limit-Reset headers and exceeding one returns HTTP 429. The System Log is more tightly limited (about 120 requests/minute) and a separate concurrent-request cap (default 75 in-flight transactions) also applies.

FAQ
Folk CRM and Okta integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Folk CRM and Okta: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Folk CRM's Groups and Custom fields), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Folk CRM: Custom fields are defined per group, which means field mappings can differ across groups within the same workspace. Okta: The Okta Management API is fully writable: Users, Groups, group memberships, Application assignments, Group Rules, and Policies all support create and update, so Okta is both a source and a target for sync. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Folk CRM and Okta without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Folk CRM and Okta records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Folk CRM and Okta connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Folk CRM–Okta integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Folk CRM and Okta. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Folk CRM: Webhook subscriptions for record events, with polling of list endpoints as a fallback. On Okta: Event Hooks send an HTTPS POST to a subscribed endpoint on events such as user.lifecycle.create and group.user_membership.add (after a one-time verification handshake); the System Log API (/api/v1/logs) is polled by the since parameter and the next Link header for a near-real-time change feed. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
