Why teams connect GitHub and Seismic

Sync what happens in GitHub with the customer records in Seismic, in real time and in both directions.

The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever GitHub holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.

Stacksync connects Repositories, Issues, Pull Requests, Commits in GitHub to Teamsites, LiveSend Links, Digital Sales Rooms, Reporting Activities in Seismic with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in GitHub update the matching contact or account in Seismic, and CRM data flows the other way wherever GitHub can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync of GitHub issues with Jira, Linear, or a support system so engineering and customer-facing teams work in their own tools.
  • 02 Mirror repository, PR, and workflow-run data into a Postgres database for engineering-metrics reporting.
  • 03 Provision and deactivate Seismic Users and User Groups from an HRIS or IdP so content access mirrors joiner, mover, and leaver changes.
  • 04 Extract content-interaction and LiveSend engagement from the Reporting API v2 into a warehouse to tie asset views to CRM Opportunities.

Common sync patterns

Where GitHub supplies contact or company data

Enriched fields land directly on records in Seismic, and refreshes keep them from going stale.

Where GitHub can store CRM context: fields kept current

Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Seismic sync into GitHub, so people working there have the context without switching tools.

Where GitHub handles support or shared inboxes

Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Seismic, so sales sees open issues before the next call.

What you can sync between GitHub and Seismic

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.

GitHub objects Seismic objects How this pairing syncs
Users Author and assignee identities matched to internal directories. Users User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Commits Read-only history used to link code activity to tickets and releases. LiveSend Links Trackable content-share links created via the engagement API; their open and view engagement is read back through Reporting. Commits is specific to GitHub and LiveSend Links to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Releases Tagged versions synced into changelogs, CRMs, or customer-notification systems. Digital Sales Rooms Buyer-facing microsites (DSRs); lifecycle and content-change events surface via webhooks, currently marked Early Access. Releases is specific to GitHub and Digital Sales Rooms to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflow runs (Actions) CI results synced into incident and reporting systems. Reporting Activities Content-interaction, engagement, and usage analytics extracted read-only through the ETL-oriented Reporting API v2 for a warehouse. Workflow runs (Actions) is specific to GitHub and Reporting Activities to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations and Teams Membership data synced with identity systems and HR directories for access reviews. Library Content Documents, decks, and assets stored in teamsites; created, moved, and retrieved via the Content Management API, each with a contentId. Organizations and Teams is specific to GitHub and Library Content to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Labels and Milestones Classification fields mapped to statuses and sprints in external trackers. Content Versions Version history for a library item; new versions upload via API and old ones expire, with events firing on ContentManager webhooks. Labels and Milestones is specific to GitHub and Content Versions to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between GitHub and Seismic

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.

GitHub Seismic Sub-second propagation

DetectionGitHub notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks with a broad event catalog covering issues, pull requests, pushes, and releases.

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

Seismic GitHub Sub-second propagation

DetectionSeismic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • GitHub: Authenticated REST requests are limited to 5,000 per hour per user; GitHub Apps scale limits per installation.
  • Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.
