Why teams connect Ironclad and Yellowbrick

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

Common use cases

  • 01 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.
  • 02 Sync Entities (counterparties) two-way with a CRM or ERP so company and vendor master data matches across the CLM and the systems of record.
  • 03 Land ERP transactional extracts in Yellowbrick for finance and supply-chain analytics.
  • 04 Push warehouse-computed aggregates or segments back into operational tools such as a CRM.

Common sync patterns

Where Ironclad accepts updates: operational write-back

Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Yellowbrick sync back onto records in Ironclad, putting analysis where the work happens.

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Yellowbrick 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 Yellowbrick as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

What you can sync between Ironclad and Yellowbrick

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 Yellowbrick objects How this pairing syncs
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. Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced datasets by source or domain. Workflow Approvals is specific to Ironclad and Schemas to Yellowbrick — 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. Tables Columnar MPP tables; the primary targets for warehouse syncs. Signature Packets is specific to Ironclad and Tables to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflow Documents Draft and executed documents attached to a workflow; retrieved to pull generated or signed files out into a document store or archive. Views Logical views used to shape reads for BI and downstream syncs. Workflow Documents is specific to Ironclad and Views to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Users and Roles Access-control objects that govern what a sync service account can read and write. Workflows is specific to Ironclad and Users and Roles to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Databases Top-level containers for schemas and tables. Records is specific to Ironclad and Databases to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ironclad and Yellowbrick

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

Yellowbrick Ironclad Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Yellowbrick for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on timestamp columns.

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.
  • Yellowbrick: No API rate limits; throughput depends on cluster sizing, and bulk loads should use ybload rather than row-by-row inserts.

How the Ironclad and Yellowbrick 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.
