Why teams connect Lever and Nimble

Keep the people who own accounts in Nimble in step with the workforce records in Lever, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.

Nimble runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Lever. Lever is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Stacksync syncs Custom fields, Contacts, Companies, Deals in Nimble with Notes and Contacts, Opportunities, Postings, Requisitions in Lever field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Lever stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Nimble keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate contacts from marketing tools into Nimble while writing Nimble edits back to avoid duplicates.
  • 02 Feed Nimble activity and task data into reporting dashboards without manual CSV exports.
  • 03 Push Postings and Requisitions into an HRIS or warehouse to reconcile approved headcount against open roles.
  • 04 When an Opportunity is marked hired, write the candidate and its Offer into an HRIS or onboarding system to start employee provisioning.

Common sync patterns

One directory of people

A person's name, title, email, phone, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so both stop maintaining separate copies of the same individual.

Where Lever tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Lever, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in Nimble, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Lever records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Nimble, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

What you can sync between Lever and Nimble

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.

Lever objects Nimble objects How this pairing syncs
Requisitions Headcount/requisition records with custom requisition fields, tied to Postings; read via GET /requisitions and synced to an HRIS to reconcile approved headcount against open roles. Activities Calls, events, and interaction history used for engagement reporting outside Nimble Requisitions is specific to Lever and Activities to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offers Offer records attached to an Opportunity with status and offer-form fields; exposed read-only through GET /opportunities/:id/offers, so they sync outbound to an HRIS or onboarding system when a candidate reaches the offer stage. Notes Free-text records attached to contacts, replicated for a complete account timeline Offers is specific to Lever and Notes to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Lever team members (recruiters, hiring managers) with configurable roles; can be created via POST /users, deactivated, and reactivated through the API. Tags Segmentation labels that map to list membership or filters in downstream systems Users is specific to Lever and Tags to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stages Pipeline stage definitions that Opportunities move through; read to model funnel state and stage transitions in a database. Custom fields Account-defined contact attributes that carry enrichment or internal identifiers Stages is specific to Lever and Custom fields to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Feedback Interview feedback and scorecard forms attached to Opportunities; created via POST /opportunities/:id/feedback and consolidated into a warehouse for interviewer analytics. Contacts Person records with multi-value fields for email, phone, and social profiles; the primary sync entity Feedback is specific to Lever and Contacts to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Interviews Scheduled interview panel events with times and interviewers; read for scheduling reporting and time-to-hire metrics, and creatable via the panels endpoint. Companies Stored as contact records with a company record type, so they sync through the same contacts resource Interviews is specific to Lever and Companies to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Lever and Nimble

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.

Lever Nimble Sub-second propagation

DetectionLever notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for candidate and application lifecycle events (applicationCreated, candidateStageChange, candidateArchiveStateChange, candidateHired,.

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

Nimble Lever Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Nimble for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on record modification timestamps.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Lever: 10 requests/second per API key with a token-bucket burst to ~20/s; POSTs that create candidates/applications are throttled to roughly 2/second. Sustained overage returns 429 with Retry-After. List endpoints are cursor-paginated at up to 100 records per page.
  • Nimble: Subject to per-account API request quotas.
