Why teams connect Google Sheets and Xactly

Sync what happens in Google Sheets with the customer records in Xactly, 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 Google Sheets 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 Ranges, Named ranges, Cell values, Spreadsheets in Google Sheets to Products & Customers, Orders, Credits, Transactions (Commission & Bonus) in Xactly with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Google Sheets update the matching contact or account in Xactly, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Google Sheets can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Use a sheet as a lightweight intake form whose rows become records in a production database.
  • 02 Reconcile finance or billing exports against system-of-record data in one collaborative surface.
  • 03 Mirror commission Transactions and Credits into a data warehouse to power rep-facing dashboards and comp-plan analytics without manual exports.
  • 04 Sync Participants, Positions, Titles, and Quotas from an HRIS/HCM and planning tools into Xactly so the org hierarchy and targets stay aligned with headcount changes.

Common sync patterns

Where Google Sheets can store CRM context: fields kept current

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

Where Google Sheets supplies contact or company data

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

Where Google Sheets processes payments

Charges, refunds, and subscription changes appear on the account in Xactly, so revenue context lives with the relationship.

What you can sync between Google Sheets and Xactly

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 Sheets objects Xactly objects How this pairing syncs
Cell values Untyped by default, so syncs handle type coercion for dates and numbers. Transactions (Commission & Bonus) Calculated commission and bonus line items produced by Incent's calculation engine; read as the output of comp runs for reporting and downstream payout, so effectively read-only results. Cell values is specific to Google Sheets and Transactions (Commission & Bonus) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Spreadsheets The file-level container a sync connects to, identified by spreadsheet ID. Participants (Payees) Sales reps and payees keyed to positions; loaded and updated from HRIS/HCM source data through Connect (write) and read for roster reporting, so read and write. Spreadsheets is specific to Google Sheets and Participants (Payees) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sheets (tabs) Individual worksheets, typically mapped one-to-one to a synced table. Positions & Titles Org-hierarchy positions and titles that credits and quotas roll up to; loaded and maintained through Connect (write) and read to resolve the hierarchy, so read and write. Sheets (tabs) is specific to Google Sheets and Positions & Titles to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows Treated as records; a header row usually defines field names. Quotas / Targets Period quota and target values per position or plan; loaded from planning tools through Connect (write) and read for attainment reporting, so read and write. Rows is specific to Google Sheets and Quotas / Targets to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Ranges Addressed in A1 notation for batched reads and writes. Payment Summary (Payable) Approved payable amounts per participant per period; read as the output that feeds payroll and accounts payable, so effectively read-only. Ranges is specific to Google Sheets and Payment Summary (Payable) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Named ranges Stable references that keep sync mappings valid when the grid moves. Products & Customers Product and customer/account master used in crediting rules and reporting; loaded and updated from CRM/ERP through Connect (write) and read for lookups, so read and write. Named ranges is specific to Google Sheets and Products & Customers to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Sheets and Xactly

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 Sheets Xactly Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Google Sheets for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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

Xactly Google Sheets Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Xactly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC log for external tools to consume.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Sheets: Subject to per-minute read and write quotas per project and per user, so large syncs are batched.
  • Xactly: Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.

How the Google Sheets and Xactly connectors work

Google Sheets

Integration surface
REST API (Google Sheets API), with file-level change signals available through the Drive API
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (user consent) or Google service accounts
Change detection
Polling; the Sheets API has no cell-level webhooks, and Drive push notifications only signal file-level changes
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to per-minute read and write quotas per project and per user, so large syncs are batched.

Xactly

Integration surface
Xactly Connect REST API v2 (JSON), plus ODBC/JDBC drivers over the same ANSI-SQL data model. Incent data is exposed as SQL-queryable objects (for example xactly_order, xactly_credit, xactly_transaction, xactly_payment); data is loaded and extracted through Connect load/query steps and server-side ETL Pipelines. The base host is region/pod-specific (for example https://<pod>.xactlycorp.com).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Xactly Connect API Gateway (bearer tokens issued on behalf of an Xactly Incent user), with HTTP Basic authentication using a dedicated Xactly Connect service-user's credentials also supported for the Connect REST API v2. The connecting user needs Connect/API access plus the relevant object permissions in Incent.
Change detection
No CDC log for external tools to consume. Incremental sync uses SQL predicates on modified/last-updated timestamp columns (for example WHERE modified_date > watermark) against Connect's queryable objects, or scheduled Connect ETL Pipelines that pull deltas since the last run. Xactly Connect has no outbound HTTP webhooks, so change detection is pull/ETL-based.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.
