Why teams connect Insightly and Iterable

Keep the people you sell to and the people you market to in one shared view: Insightly and Iterable sync contacts, accounts, and engagement in real time, in both directions.

Insightly owns the customer relationship and the pipeline; Iterable runs the campaigns, audiences, and outreach that fill it. The two overlap on the same people and companies — a lead in one system is a subscriber, a segment member, an event registrant, or an ad audience in the other. When that overlap is bridged by CSV exports or a nightly job, sales works from lists that no longer match reality and marketing keeps targeting people whose status has already moved on.

Stacksync syncs Custom Fields, Contacts, Organizations, Leads in Insightly with Commerce / Purchases, Export data, Users, Events in Iterable field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — Insightly can own account and opportunity status while Iterable owns engagement and campaign membership — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Deduplicate and align customer records between Insightly and an ERP or invoicing system
  • 02 Two-way sync of Insightly contacts and organizations with a marketing automation platform
  • 03 Write list subscribe/unsubscribe changes from a CRM back into Iterable Lists so suppression and opt-in state stay current before the next send.
  • 04 Two-way sync User profiles and their custom data fields between Iterable and a Postgres database or CRM so attributes and subscription state stay aligned in both systems.

Common sync patterns

Where Iterable generates leads: hand-off without re-keying

New leads or responders captured in Iterable flow into Insightly assigned and deduplicated, so nothing sits in a marketing list waiting for someone to export it.

New and updated people stay in step

When a contact or lead is created or edited in either system, the matching record appears or updates in the other, so campaigns reach real people and reps see who is already being marketed to.

Where Iterable captures engagement: activity lands on the record

Opens, clicks, form fills, event attendance, or ad responses recorded in Iterable post back to the contact or account in Insightly, so reps see interest before they reach out.

What you can sync between Insightly and Iterable

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.

Insightly objects Iterable objects How this pairing syncs
Events Calendar items sync for a complete activity timeline. Events Custom and system events tracked via /api/events/track and /api/events/trackBulk (up to 1000 events per call); a single user's event history is read via GET /api/events/{email}. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Notes Free-text context attaches to synced records for downstream visibility. Lists Static subscriber lists; read via GET /api/lists and /api/lists/getUsers, with users added or removed via /api/lists/subscribe and /api/lists/unsubscribe to control who receives a send. Notes is specific to Insightly and Lists to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Products Product catalog entries support line-item syncing on opportunities and quotes. Catalogs Named catalogs of items (products, content) used for personalization and recommendations; items upserted and read via /api/catalogs/{catalogName}/items. Products is specific to Insightly and Catalogs to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields Per-object custom fields carry enrichment and billing data written from external systems. Commerce / Purchases Purchase and cart activity tracked via /api/commerce/trackPurchase and /api/commerce/updateCart, feeding revenue attribution and abandoned-cart journeys. Custom Fields is specific to Insightly and Commerce / Purchases to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contacts Person records sync with marketing and support tools to keep one contact list. Export data Historical user and event records pulled through the Export API (/api/export/data.json, data.csv, and userEvents) across data types like emailSend, emailOpen, emailClick, emailBounce, purchase, and customEvent. Contacts is specific to Insightly and Export data to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations Company records map to accounts in ERPs and other CRMs. Users User profiles keyed by email or userId with custom data fields; upserted via POST /api/users/update, read via GET /api/users/{email} or getByUserId, bulk-written via /api/users/bulkUpdate (up to 1000 users per call), and deleted or GDPR-forgotten. Organizations is specific to Insightly and Users to Iterable — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Insightly and Iterable

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.

Insightly Iterable Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Insightly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on record updated-date fields.

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

Iterable Insightly Sub-second propagation

DetectionIterable notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. System Webhooks push email/SMS/push/in-app and custom events (send, open, click, bounce, complaint, unsubscribe) as JSON POSTs in near real time.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Insightly: Daily API request caps vary by Insightly plan.
  • Iterable: Limits are per endpoint and per project/key; exceeding one returns HTTP 429, so exponential backoff is advised. Event tracking allows far higher volume than metadata endpoints like campaigns/templates, and the Export API is throttled more tightly. Since Nov 10, 2025, passing the key in the query string or body is rate-limited more strictly than the Api-Key header.
