Why teams connect Gatekeeper and Quip
Stop re-entering the same information in Gatekeeper and Quip: 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 Custom data groups, Users, Categories, Contracts in Gatekeeper with Messages, Users, Blobs, Documents in Quip 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 Sync Vendors (Suppliers) with a CRM or ERP so counterparty, compliance, contact, and spend records match across the VCLM and the systems of record.
- 02 Push generated documents into Gatekeeper Files, or pull executed contract PDFs and compliance evidence out into a document store or archive.
- 03 Mirror Documents and Spreadsheets into Postgres or a warehouse, keyed on thread ID and refreshed when updated_usec advances, for search and reporting on account plans and notes.
- 04 Write status rows from an operational database into a shared Quip Spreadsheet with update_spreadsheet_row so ops and deal-desk teams see live figures in-document.
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 Quip is where the team documents or plans: keep its data fed
Information that originates in Gatekeeper stays current in Quip instead of going stale after a one-time paste.
What you can sync between Gatekeeper and Quip
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 | Quip objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Users Gatekeeper user and team records governed by role-based access; read to map contract and vendor owners, approvers, and internal contacts to CRM or HR records. | Users Member records read individually or via contacts; get_authenticated_user identifies the token owner. Used read-only for directory-style syncs. | Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. | |
| 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. | Folders Private, Shared, and Group containers that organize threads; membership is added or removed via the folders endpoints for access control. | Files is specific to Gatekeeper and Folders to Quip — 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. | Messages Comments and chat posts on a thread; the most recent are read with get_messages and new ones written with new_message. | Workflow form data is specific to Gatekeeper and Messages to Quip — 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. | Blobs Images and file attachments stored per thread; downloaded with get_blob and uploaded with put_blob against a specific thread ID. | Custom data groups is specific to Gatekeeper and Blobs to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Documents Editable rich-text threads addressed by ID; created and updated over REST via HTML or Markdown sections, with an updated_usec timestamp used to detect edits. | Categories is specific to Gatekeeper and Documents to Quip — 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. | Spreadsheets Live-spreadsheet threads; rows and cells are read and written through add_to_spreadsheet and update_spreadsheet_row helpers on the same thread endpoints. | Contracts is specific to Gatekeeper and Spreadsheets to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Gatekeeper and Quip
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 Quip 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 Quip through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Quip Gatekeeper Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Quip for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Gatekeeper 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.
- Quip: Automation API allows roughly 50 requests per minute per access token; exceeding it returns HTTP 503, and responses carry X-RateLimit headers.

How the Gatekeeper and Quip 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.
- Capabilities
- read · write
- Rate limits
- 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.

FAQ
Gatekeeper and Quip integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Gatekeeper and Quip: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Gatekeeper's Users and Files), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
On the Gatekeeper side: Custom data groups, Users, Categories, Contracts, plus custom fields where Gatekeeper exposes them. On the Quip side: Messages, Users, Blobs, Documents. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Gatekeeper and Quip: Where both tools track people or companies: one consistent record; Where one tool produces events: mirror them in the other; Where Quip is where the team documents or plans: keep its data fed. Contact and company details corrected in either tool update the other, so nobody works from the old version.

Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Gatekeeper: Write access is per API key per endpoint: when you create a key you choose read-only or write for each object, so the API is write-capable and can create and update records rather than only export them. Quip: Spreadsheet edits go through cell- and row-level helpers rather than a bulk upsert, so writing many rows means many API calls. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Gatekeeper and Quip without custom code.
