Why teams connect Front and Jumpcloud

Keep the users, groups, and profile details that Front and Jumpcloud share consistent in real time, so who can work in Front always matches who your directory in Jumpcloud says belongs there.

Jumpcloud is where a company records who its people are: their accounts, the groups and roles they hold, and the attributes attached to each one. Front is where a slice of those same people do their work, as agents, members, or seats, and every one of them needs a matching account with the right access. When a directory and a productivity tool are maintained by hand, someone added, moved, or offboarded in one becomes a stale entry in the other within the hour.

Stacksync syncs Channels, Conversations, Messages, Comments in Front with Policies, Commands, Directory Insights events, System Users (Users) in Jumpcloud bi-directionally and in real time. A user created, renamed, moved between groups, or deactivated in either system updates the matching record in the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV uploads and nightly IT batch jobs.

That matters most at the edges of employment. When both systems agree on who has an account, which groups they belong to, and whether they are still active, granting access on day one and revoking it on the last day stops being a manual checklist that trails the directory.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep Front contacts and accounts aligned with CRM contacts and accounts in both directions.
  • 02 Mirror conversations tagged for escalation into engineering trackers through the synced database.
  • 03 Drive Application and Policy assignments from HR attributes or entitlement tables so SSO access and device policies change the moment a role does.
  • 04 Two-way sync User Groups and their memberships between JumpCloud and a source-of-truth database so app, LDAP, and RADIUS access stays aligned with org data.

Common sync patterns

Provision access when someone joins

A user added to Jumpcloud, or moved into a group inside it, gets the matching account or membership created in Front, so a new hire can start working without a separate setup ticket.

Close access when someone leaves

When a user is disabled or removed in Jumpcloud, their account in Front is deactivated in step, so offboarding shuts down access everywhere instead of leaving a live login behind.

Keep profile attributes current

A person's name, email, department, manager, or phone number corrected in either system updates the other, so the productivity tool shows the same details the directory holds of record.

What you can sync between Front and Jumpcloud

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.

Front objects Jumpcloud objects How this pairing syncs
Tags Labels applied to conversations; drive routing and category-level analytics. Policies Device configuration and MDM policies; read, created from templates, and updated via v2 /policies, then bound to systems and system groups to enforce settings across the fleet. Tags is specific to Front and Policies to Jumpcloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teammates Agents; used for ownership mapping and workload reporting. Commands Scripts and commands run on managed systems; full CRUD via v1 /commands, then triggered on target systems and groups for automation and remediation. Teammates is specific to Front and Commands to Jumpcloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from. Directory Insights events Audit stream of logins and admin actions across SSO, LDAP, RADIUS, systems, and MDM; read-only, queried by POST and used as the change feed and SIEM source. Channels is specific to Front and Directory Insights events to Jumpcloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Conversations The central threaded unit that messages, comments, and tags attach to; synced for support analytics. System Users (Users) Directory user accounts (email, username, attributes, status, MFA, group and app bindings); full CRUD via the v1 /systemusers API - create, update, activate or suspend, and delete to match an HR or identity source. Conversations is specific to Front and System Users (Users) to Jumpcloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Messages Inbound and outbound emails, chats, and SMS within a conversation; read out for response-time reporting. User Groups User groups that grant app, LDAP, and RADIUS access; created, updated, and deleted via v2 /usergroups, with membership managed through the graph association endpoints. Messages is specific to Front and User Groups to Jumpcloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Comments Internal team notes on conversations; usually read-only in syncs. Systems (devices) Enrolled macOS, Windows, and Linux machines running the JumpCloud agent; agent-enrolled, so the API reads, updates, and deletes systems for inventory and management rather than creating them. Comments is specific to Front and Systems (devices) to Jumpcloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Front and Jumpcloud

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.

Front Jumpcloud Sub-second propagation

DetectionFront notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Application webhooks and rule-triggered webhooks, with the events endpoint available for polling.

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

Jumpcloud Front Sub-second propagation

DetectionJumpcloud notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No database-style change log.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Front: Request limits vary by plan.
  • Jumpcloud: JumpCloud rate-limits API requests and returns HTTP 429 (Rate limit exceeded) when a client sends requests too quickly; its guidance is to back off and retry at a lower rate. Specific per-minute ceilings are not published, and the Directory Insights API is metered separately. Webhook deliveries are retried three times with exponential backoff on 5xx, 408, or 429 responses.

Jumpcloud

Integration surface
JumpCloud REST API - v1 (console.jumpcloud.com/api) for Systems, System Users, and Commands; v2 (/api/v2) for User Groups, System Groups, Applications, Policies, and resource associations; plus the Directory Insights API (api.jumpcloud.com/insights/directory/v1/events) and Webhook Channels for outbound events.
Authentication
Admin API key sent in the x-api-key header (keys are prefixed jca_, generated in the console with a 30-365 day expiry, and disabled for admins by default until enabled); an x-org-id header scopes calls to a single organization for MSP multi-tenant admins. System Context authorization (HMAC-signed) also exists for agent-run calls.
Change detection
No database-style change log. The Directory Insights API is queried by POST for login and admin events across SSO, LDAP, RADIUS, systems, MDM, and directory services - including the association_change event that records user-to-group and policy-to-device membership changes; Webhook Channels tied to Insights Rules POST JSON to a registered endpoint for near-real-time triggers.
