Why teams connect Insightly and Sysaid

Sync what happens in Sysaid with the customer records in Insightly, 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 Sysaid 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 Configuration Items (CIs), Companies, Custom Fields, Incidents in Sysaid to Opportunities, Projects, Tasks, Events in Insightly with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Sysaid update the matching contact or account in Insightly, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Sysaid can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Assets and Configuration Items with an external CMDB or asset database so inventory and ticket linkage share one source of truth.
  • 02 Stream Service Records into a warehouse for SLA, backlog, and MTTR reporting without manual CSV exports.
  • 03 Replicate opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse so RevOps can report on pipeline with SQL
  • 04 Keep Insightly projects aligned with delivery or PSA tools after opportunities close

Common sync patterns

Where Sysaid can store CRM context: fields kept current

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

Where Sysaid handles support or shared inboxes

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

Where Sysaid supplies contact or company data

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

What you can sync between Insightly and Sysaid

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 Sysaid objects How this pairing syncs
Custom Fields Per-object custom fields carry enrichment and billing data written from external systems. Custom Fields Org-specific fields on service records, discoverable through the API so mappings can be generated without hardcoding names. 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.
Tasks Activity records keep follow-ups consistent across systems. Incidents Break/fix tickets under /api/v1/sr with type=incident; created and updated two-way with status, priority, assignee, category, and SLA fields. Tasks is specific to Insightly and Incidents to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events Calendar items sync for a complete activity timeline. Service Requests Catalog and help-desk requests on the same /sr endpoint (type=request); written or read so fulfillment can be driven from another system. Events is specific to Insightly and Service Requests to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Notes Free-text context attaches to synced records for downstream visibility. Problems Root-cause records that group related incidents; read and written to keep problem management aligned with an external ITSM or reporting store. Notes is specific to Insightly and Problems to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Products Product catalog entries support line-item syncing on opportunities and quotes. Changes Change records (type=change) with approval and scheduling fields; synced two-way to drive CAB review and deployment workflows. Products is specific to Insightly and Changes to Sysaid — 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. Users End users and admins on the /users endpoint; synced with an HRIS or identity source to keep requester and agent records current. Contacts is specific to Insightly and Users to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Insightly and Sysaid

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 Sysaid 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 Sysaid through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Sysaid Insightly Sub-second propagation

DetectionSysaid notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature.

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.
  • Sysaid: Requests are throttled per the X-RateLimit-Limit / -Remaining / -Reset headers; list calls are paginated with a limit parameter and each org is capped at 100 application keys.
