Why teams connect Jobvite and Quip

Keep the people, teams, and status that Quip and Jobvite share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.

Each tool in Quip keeps its own list of who can use it: users, members, or agents, along with the team they sit on and whether they are still active. Jobvite is the authoritative record of the same people as employees, with their department, manager, and employment status. When those two are connected only by manual account admin or a periodic export, the work tools drift: new hires wait days for access, team and manager changes never catch up, and people who have left keep standing accounts.

Stacksync syncs Documents, Spreadsheets, Folders, Messages in Quip with New Hire, Employee, Attachment, Offer in Jobvite bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Jobvite creates or updates the matching user in Quip within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Quip captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Jobvite in whichever direction you configure.

Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps its own extras; only the shared facts, who a person is, which team they belong to, and whether their access should be on, are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Documents and Spreadsheets into Postgres or a warehouse, keyed on thread ID and refreshed when updated_usec advances, for search and reporting on account plans and notes.
  • 02 Write status rows from an operational database into a shared Quip Spreadsheet with update_spreadsheet_row so ops and deal-desk teams see live figures in-document.
  • 03 Two-way sync Candidate records and their Workflow Status between Jobvite and a Postgres database so recruiting-ops teams query and update pipeline data in SQL.
  • 04 Write New Hire records into an HRIS or onboarding system the moment a candidate is marked hired, driven by Jobvite's candidate hired webhook.

Common sync patterns

Offboarding: no standing access after a departure

When someone is marked as leaving in Jobvite, the matching account in Quip is deactivated or flagged, so departures do not leave open access behind.

One employee directory

A person's name, title, contact details, or status corrected in either system updates the other, so both sides stop maintaining separate copies of the same person.

Org and team structure kept current

Department, team, and reporting-line changes from Jobvite keep the groups, queues, or projects in Quip assigned to the right people.

What you can sync between Jobvite and Quip

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.

Jobvite objects Quip objects How this pairing syncs
Employee Employee roster pushed through POST /employee (Onboard sync), used for referral matching and internal-mobility job postings. Documents Editable rich-text threads addressed by ID; created and updated over REST via HTML or Markdown sections, with an updated_usec timestamp used to detect edits. Employee is specific to Jobvite and Documents to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attachment Resumes, cover letters, and files attached to a candidate; synced out to object storage or a document management system. Spreadsheets Live-spreadsheet threads; rows and cells are read and written through add_to_spreadsheet and update_spreadsheet_row helpers on the same thread endpoints. Attachment is specific to Jobvite and Spreadsheets to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offer Offer state tied to an application (extended, accepted, declined); read out for offer-acceptance reporting and written to downstream comp or HR systems. Folders Private, Shared, and Group containers that organize threads; membership is added or removed via the folders endpoints for access control. Offer is specific to Jobvite and Folders to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Candidate Read from the candidate feed (GET /candidate) and written back via POST /candidate/updateCandidates to change status, notes, and disposition on each record. Messages Comments and chat posts on a thread; the most recent are read with get_messages and new ones written with new_message. Candidate is specific to Jobvite and Messages to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Requisition (Job) Job openings created or updated through POST /job and read from GET /jobFeed; maps to opening tables in an ATS reporting warehouse. Users Member records read individually or via contacts; get_authenticated_user identifies the token owner. Used read-only for directory-style syncs. Requisition (Job) is specific to Jobvite and Users to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Application Links a candidate to one requisition with its workflow state; read for pipeline reporting and status written back through the candidate update call. Blobs Images and file attachments stored per thread; downloaded with get_blob and uploaded with put_blob against a specific thread ID. Application is specific to Jobvite and Blobs to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Jobvite and Quip

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.

Jobvite Quip Sub-second propagation

DetectionJobvite notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events.

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

Quip Jobvite Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Quip for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Jobvite: Roughly 15 requests per minute and 850 per hour, reset at midnight Pacific, with per-endpoint daily caps (e.g. 20,000/day candidate GET/PUT, 500/day employee sync); 429 on exceed.
  • Quip: Automation API allows roughly 50 requests per minute per access token; exceeding it returns HTTP 503, and responses carry X-RateLimit headers.

How the Jobvite and Quip connectors work

Jobvite

Integration surface
REST API (JSON) with candidate, requisition (job), and employee feed endpoints under https://api.jobvite.com/{version}
Authentication
API key (api) and secret (sc) plus company ID (companyId), sent in request headers since Jobvite's April 1, 2024 move from URL-query to header-based auth. Credentials are provisioned per customer by Jobvite Support.
Change detection
A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events; otherwise Stacksync polls the candidate and job feeds on a schedule and diffs results, since records carry no per-item modified-date filter.
