Why teams connect Lever and Microsoft Teams

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

Each tool in Microsoft Teams 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. Lever 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 Channels, Channel Messages, Chats & Chat Messages, Team Members & Users in Microsoft Teams with Offers, Users, Stages, Feedback in Lever bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Lever creates or updates the matching user in Microsoft Teams within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Microsoft Teams captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Lever 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 Notify an ops channel when a sync detects failed or conflicting records that need review.
  • 02 Sync team membership from HR or identity systems so channels match the org chart.
  • 03 Consolidate Feedback, Interviews, and Notes into a warehouse for interviewer scorecard and time-to-fill reporting.
  • 04 Write enriched Sources, Tags, and Contact data back onto Opportunities from an outbound sourcing pipeline.

Common sync patterns

Onboarding: access ready on day one

A new hire recorded in Lever creates the matching user in Microsoft Teams with the right team and manager already set, so people can start working without waiting on a provisioning ticket.

Offboarding: no standing access after a departure

When someone is marked as leaving in Lever, the matching account in Microsoft Teams 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.
