Why teams connect Ironclad and StarRocks

Get the data locked inside Ironclad into StarRocks 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 Entities, Obligations, Webhooks, Workflow Approvals from Ironclad into tables in StarRocks continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in StarRocks can also be written back into fields in Ironclad where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • 01 Pull executed contract PDFs from Records attachments into a document store or archive as each workflow completes.
  • 02 Two-way sync Ironclad Records with a warehouse or ERP so executed-contract value, counterparty, renewal dates, and status stay current without manual re-keying.
  • 03 Serve customer-facing analytics from SaaS data synced into one analytical store
  • 04 Consolidate several sources into StarRocks as the query layer while Stacksync handles movement

Common sync patterns

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in StarRocks 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 StarRocks 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 Ironclad and StarRocks

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.

Ironclad objects StarRocks objects How this pairing 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. Partitions Time or range partitions that scope loads and retention. Records is specific to Ironclad and Partitions to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Entities Structured records for counterparties and other parties linked to workflows and records; read and written to keep company and vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. Columns Columnar storage with types mapped from source systems during sync. Entities is specific to Ironclad and Columns to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Obligations Post-signature commitments, milestones, and renewal dates tied to contracts; synced two-way to drive renewal, compliance, and finance reporting in downstream systems. Databases Top-level namespaces addressed exactly as in MySQL clients. Obligations is specific to Ironclad and Databases to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Tables Defined with a table model (Primary Key, Unique Key, Aggregate, Duplicate Key) that determines update behavior. Webhooks is specific to Ironclad and Tables to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Materialized views Automatically maintained rollups used to accelerate queries on synced data. Workflow Approvals is specific to Ironclad and Materialized views to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Views Logical views for shaping analytical reads. Signature Packets is specific to Ironclad and Views to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ironclad and StarRocks

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.

Ironclad StarRocks 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 StarRocks as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

StarRocks Ironclad Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls StarRocks for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Query-based polling when reading.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • StarRocks: Ingestion throughput is bounded by cluster resources rather than API quotas.

How the Ironclad and StarRocks connectors work

Ironclad

Integration surface
REST/JSON Public API (CLM API) at https://na1.ironcladapp.com/public/api/v1 (NA1 and EU1 regions plus a demo/sandbox), with a native Webhooks subscription API; described by an OpenAPI 3.1 spec.
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 - Authorization Code grant (PKCE for public clients) and Client Credentials grant for server-to-server; access tokens are Bearer, expire after 6 hours, and every endpoint is gated by a resource scope. The legacy static API bearer token was deprecated on 2024-11-22.
Change detection
Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing endpoint up to 10 times over about 13.6 hours with exponential backoff. Otherwise poll the list endpoints by last-updated. There is no database change-data-capture log.
