Why teams connect Gatekeeper and Google Sheets

Stop re-entering the same information in Gatekeeper and Google Sheets: Stacksync keeps the records they share consistent in real time, in both directions.

Two tools in the daily stack often hold overlapping information: the same people, the same companies, or the same pieces of work, described twice. The tools do different jobs, so consolidating is not the answer; the overlap just needs to stop drifting.

Stacksync syncs Vendors (Suppliers), Files, Workflow form data, Custom data groups in Gatekeeper with Spreadsheets, Sheets (tabs), Rows, Ranges in Google Sheets in real time. You choose which records overlap, map the fields that should match, and pick a direction or let changes flow both ways. From then on, an update made in either tool is reflected in the other within seconds, without exports or copy-paste.

Because the sync is field-level, each tool keeps its own extras; only the shared data is held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write contract or vendor records into Gatekeeper when a deal closes in the CRM to kick off downstream procurement and legal workflows.
  • 02 Two-way sync Contracts between Gatekeeper and an ERP or warehouse so value, renewal dates, owner, and status stay current without manual re-keying.
  • 03 Use a sheet as a lightweight intake form whose rows become records in a production database.
  • 04 Reconcile finance or billing exports against system-of-record data in one collaborative surface.

Common sync patterns

Where both tools track people or companies: one consistent record

Contact and company details corrected in either tool update the other, so nobody works from the old version.

Where one tool produces events: mirror them in the other

Payments, replies, messages, or tickets created in one tool can create or update matching records in the other, keeping context in one place.

Where Google Sheets is where the team documents or plans: keep its data fed

Information that originates in Gatekeeper stays current in Google Sheets instead of going stale after a one-time paste.

What you can sync between Gatekeeper and Google Sheets

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.

Gatekeeper objects Google Sheets objects How this pairing syncs
Categories The classification taxonomy applied to contracts and vendors (type, department, business unit); synced so categorization stays consistent between Gatekeeper and downstream reporting or ERP dimensions. Spreadsheets The file-level container a sync connects to, identified by spreadsheet ID. Categories is specific to Gatekeeper and Spreadsheets to Google Sheets — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contracts The core contract records holding value, key dates, renewal terms, status, type, owner, and the linked vendor; created, read, updated, and deleted so contract data moves two-way between Gatekeeper and a database, ERP, or CRM. Sheets (tabs) Individual worksheets, typically mapped one-to-one to a synced table. Contracts is specific to Gatekeeper and Sheets (tabs) to Google Sheets — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Vendors (Suppliers) Company records for counterparties and suppliers with onboarding status, compliance, risk, contacts, and spend; read and written to keep vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. Rows Treated as records; a header row usually defines field names. Vendors (Suppliers) is specific to Gatekeeper and Rows to Google Sheets — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Files Document files attached to contracts and vendors - executed PDFs, certificates, and compliance evidence; read to pull signed files and evidence out, or written to push generated documents in. Ranges Addressed in A1 notation for batched reads and writes. Files is specific to Gatekeeper and Ranges to Google Sheets — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflow form data The structured data captured on Gatekeeper workflow forms (intake requests, vendor onboarding, risk assessments); exposed by the API since 2025 so form results sync into an operational database, not only contract and vendor records. Named ranges Stable references that keep sync mappings valid when the grid moves. Workflow form data is specific to Gatekeeper and Named ranges to Google Sheets — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom data groups Customer-configured custom fields and data groups; because the JSON:API and its docs are dynamic, any custom data added in Configuration exposes the same read/write endpoints as the standard objects and syncs the same way. Cell values Untyped by default, so syncs handle type coercion for dates and numbers. Custom data groups is specific to Gatekeeper and Cell values to Google Sheets — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Gatekeeper and Google Sheets

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.

Gatekeeper Google Sheets Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gatekeeper for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Gatekeeper: Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.
  • Google Sheets: Subject to per-minute read and write quotas per project and per user, so large syncs are batched.

How the Gatekeeper and Google Sheets connectors work

Gatekeeper

Integration surface
RESTful API following the JSON:API specification, tenant-scoped with interactive docs at {tenant}.gatekeeperhq.com/api_docs and a published Postman collection. The API is dynamic: it exposes the standard Contract and Vendor objects plus any custom data groups and workflow-form data configured in the tenant.
Authentication
API keys created and managed under Configuration > API Keys and passed as a token; each key carries granular per-endpoint permissions set to read-only or write, so access is scoped per object. Multiple keys can be issued and revoked independently.
Change detection
No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log; detect changes by polling the JSON:API list endpoints filtered and sorted on updated-at timestamps. Gatekeeper's own event automation - Workflow Engine phase transitions and Interconnect process orchestration - runs inside the platform rather than as a subscribable webhook stream.
