Why teams connect Folk CRM and RingCentral

Keep Folk CRM and RingCentral working from the same contacts, and log every call, message, and meeting back on the record, in real time and in both directions.

Folk CRM holds the people the business talks to: the contacts, their phone numbers and email addresses, and which rep owns the relationship. RingCentral is where the talking happens, whether that is calls, texts, email, or meetings. The two depend on the same people, and when the contact list in one drifts from the other, outreach goes to stale numbers and the record of what was said never makes it back to the account.

Stacksync syncs Groups, Custom fields, Notes, Reminders in Folk CRM with RingOut (Click-to-call), Team Messaging (Chat), Presence, Subscriptions (Webhooks / WebSocket) in RingCentral field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Current contact details flow out to RingCentral so it can reach the right person, and the calls, messages, and meetings RingCentral produces flow back onto the matching record in Folk CRM. You decide which system owns which fields, and conflicts resolve by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep folk and a billing or customer success tool aligned on company records as deals close.
  • 02 Sync folk people and companies with a marketing or outbound tool so outreach lists stay current.
  • 03 Provision and deprovision Extensions from an HR system or IdP through the Configuration API so the user roster and assigned numbers stay current as people join or leave.
  • 04 Place RingOut click-to-dial calls from a CRM or internal app so reps dial contacts without leaving their workflow.

Common sync patterns

Where RingCentral reaches out: contacts kept current

Names, phone numbers, email addresses, and the owning rep from Folk CRM stay current in RingCentral, so every call, text, or email goes to the right person at the right address.

Calls, messages, and meetings on the record

Activity handled in RingCentral appears on the matching contact and account in Folk CRM, so the next person sees the full history without leaving the CRM.

Where RingCentral sends at scale: delivery and reply status back on the contact

Sends, bounces, opens, and replies from RingCentral update fields on the contact in Folk CRM, so lead status reflects what actually reached the person.

What you can sync between Folk CRM and RingCentral

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 RingCentral objects How this pairing syncs
Companies Organization records linked to people and kept aligned with billing or CS systems. Extensions (Users) User extensions with profile, status, roles, and assigned phone numbers via the Configuration API; create, update, and disable extensions to provision or deprovision users and map them to CRM, HR, or directory identities. Read and write. Companies is specific to Folk CRM and Extensions (Users) to RingCentral — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Shared workspaces that organize contacts; group membership is often the field integrations act on. Contacts (Address Book) Personal address-book contacts per extension with full CRUD via POST/PUT/DELETE /address-book/contact; the company directory has no create endpoint and is read-only, so only personal contacts are writable. Read and write. Groups is specific to Folk CRM and Contacts (Address Book) to RingCentral — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom fields Group-scoped attributes that receive enriched or computed values from external systems. RingOut (Click-to-call) Two-legged calls placed programmatically via POST /account/~/extension/~/ring-out, with status polled via GET and calls cancelled via DELETE; a write/action path for click-to-dial from a CRM or internal app. Write. Custom fields is specific to Folk CRM and RingOut (Click-to-call) to RingCentral — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Notes Free-text context attached to people and companies, readable for reporting. Team Messaging (Chat) RingCentral team-messaging chats, teams, and posts (formerly Glip); read conversations and create posts, create teams, and add or remove members to mirror org structure. Read and write. Notes is specific to Folk CRM and Team Messaging (Chat) to RingCentral — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reminders Follow-up items that can be created from external triggers. Presence Real-time presence and detailed telephony state per extension, read via GET presence and subscribed to for live updates, used to reflect agent availability and call status across systems. Read-only. Reminders is specific to Folk CRM and Presence to RingCentral — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People Contact records; the primary entity synced with outreach and enrichment tools. Subscriptions (Webhooks / WebSocket) Event subscriptions created through the Subscription API with eventFilters (message-store, presence, telephony sessions, extension changes); full CRUD, and the mechanism for near-real-time change delivery over webhooks or WebSocket. Read and write. People is specific to Folk CRM and Subscriptions (Webhooks / WebSocket) to RingCentral — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Folk CRM and RingCentral

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Folk CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
  • RingCentral: Per-user (extension) throttling groups per 60 seconds - Heavy 10, Medium 40 (e.g. /sms), Light 50, Auth 5 - as customizable defaults; exceeding returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header and X-Rate-Limit-Group/Limit/Remaining/Window headers.
