Why teams connect Google Cloud Platform and Ironclad

Get the data locked inside Ironclad into Google Cloud Platform as live tables, and send results back where Ironclad can use them, without writing a pipeline.

Whatever Ironclad is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

Stacksync syncs Records, Entities, Obligations, Webhooks from Ironclad into tables in Google Cloud Platform continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Google Cloud Platform can also be written back into fields in Ironclad where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • 01 Stream workflow approval and signature webhook events into an operational database for cycle-time, bottleneck, and SLA reporting across the contract lifecycle.
  • 02 Push Obligations and renewal dates from Ironclad into a finance or task system so post-signature commitments and renewals are tracked and actioned on time.
  • 03 Publish change events to Pub/Sub so downstream services react to record updates as they happen.

Common sync patterns

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Google Cloud Platform preserves a queryable record even as data ages out of Ironclad or gets changed inside it.

Analytics on Ironclad's data

Records and events from Ironclad land in Google Cloud Platform as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

Cross-tool reporting

Combine Ironclad's data with data from every other synced system to answer questions no single tool can.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Platform and Ironclad

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.

Google Cloud Platform objects Ironclad objects How this pairing syncs
BigQuery datasets Namespaces that group tables; syncs target tables within a dataset. Webhooks Event subscriptions that push workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment changes to Stacksync in near real time; created, listed, and deleted through the API across 40+ event types. BigQuery datasets is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Webhooks to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
BigQuery tables The primary analytics destination, written through load jobs or the Storage Write API and queried with SQL. Workflow Approvals Per-workflow approval requests and their state; read to report approval status and cycle time, and status changes arrive live through the workflow_approval_status_changed event. BigQuery tables is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Workflow Approvals to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cloud SQL databases Managed Postgres, MySQL, and SQL Server instances synced like ordinary relational databases. Signature Packets The e-signature packets on a workflow (sent, signatures collected, fully signed); read to track signing progress, with packet events delivered by webhook for real-time status. Cloud SQL databases is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Signature Packets to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cloud Storage objects Staging area for file-based bulk loads into BigQuery and other services. Workflow Documents Draft and executed documents attached to a workflow; retrieved to pull generated or signed files out into a document store or archive. Cloud Storage objects is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Workflow Documents to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Pub/Sub topics Event streams used to move change events between systems in near real time. Workflows The core unit of Ironclad: a live contract process (NDA, MSA, order form) moving through creation, review, approval, and signature. Launched via POST, updated via PATCH, and read for status, so contract processes move two-way between Ironclad and a database, CRM, or ERP. Pub/Sub topics is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Workflows to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Firestore documents Document data read and written through the Firestore API for app-facing syncs. Records The Repository of executed and stored contracts with metadata (value, counterparty, key dates, type) and attachments; full create, read, update, and delete so signed-contract data and PDFs sync to a warehouse, ERP, or CRM. Firestore documents is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Records to Ironclad — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Cloud Platform and Ironclad

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.

Google Cloud Platform Ironclad Sub-second propagation

DetectionGoogle Cloud Platform pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Varies by service: log-based CDC on Cloud SQL (logical replication or binlog, also via Datastream), Pub/Sub for event delivery, polling for BigQuery.

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

Ironclad Google Cloud Platform Sub-second propagation

DetectionIronclad notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Google Cloud Platform as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Cloud Platform: Quotas are set per service and per project; BigQuery, Pub/Sub, and Cloud SQL each enforce their own limits.
  • Ironclad: Limits are enforced per account per minute by endpoint: GET Workflows 400 and POST/PATCH Workflows 40; GET Records 600 and POST/PATCH Records 200; GET Entities 600 and POST/PATCH Entities 200; Webhooks 600; all other endpoints 800. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429, and Ironclad recommends exponential backoff with jitter.
