Why teams connect Microsoft Teams and Smartrecruiters

Keep the people, teams, and status that Microsoft Teams and Smartrecruiters 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. Smartrecruiters 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 Teams, Channels, Channel Messages, Chats & Chat Messages in Microsoft Teams with Approvals, Candidates, Applications, Jobs in Smartrecruiters bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Smartrecruiters 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 Smartrecruiters 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 Two-way sync Candidates and Applications with Postgres so recruiting-ops apps read and update hiring status, tags, and custom fields in SQL while recruiters keep working in SmartRecruiters.
  • 04 Write enriched or sourced Candidates from external sourcing tools into SmartRecruiters and keep contact fields refreshed as data changes.

Common sync patterns

Org and team structure kept current

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

Where Microsoft Teams routes or assigns work by person: assignments follow the org

When someone changes teams or managers in Smartrecruiters, the queues, ownership, or approvals in Microsoft Teams update to match, so work reaches whoever holds the role now.

Onboarding: access ready on day one

A new hire recorded in Smartrecruiters 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.

How changes propagate between Microsoft Teams and Smartrecruiters

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.

Microsoft Teams Smartrecruiters Sub-second propagation

DetectionMicrosoft Teams notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Graph change notifications (webhooks) for messages and membership.

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

Smartrecruiters Microsoft Teams Sub-second propagation

Rate-limit considerations

  • Smartrecruiters: Per API credential: most endpoints allow up to 10 requests/sec (job publication and offer documents 2/sec), plus a concurrency limiter of up to 8 simultaneous requests (GET /candidates capped at 1). Exceeding returns 429; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit/Remaining and concurrent-limit headers.
