Why teams connect Namely and Wrike

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

Each tool in Wrike 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. Namely 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 Custom Fields, Comments, Timelogs, Contacts in Wrike with Events, Profiles, Job Titles, Job Tiers in Namely bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Namely creates or updates the matching user in Wrike within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Wrike captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Namely 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 Folders, Projects, and Timelogs into a warehouse for cross-team reporting on status, timelines, and logged hours without manual exports.
  • 02 Push support tickets or intake requests from an operational database into Wrike Tasks, then read completion and status Custom Fields back when work finishes.
  • 03 Push Groups and Teams (departments, locations, team categories) into downstream apps to keep org structure and reporting lines aligned.
  • 04 Feed Namely Reports as JSON into a database on a schedule for roster, turnover, and diversity dashboards without manual CSV exports.

Common sync patterns

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

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

Onboarding: access ready on day one

A new hire recorded in Namely creates the matching user in Wrike 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 Namely, the matching account in Wrike is deactivated or flagged, so departures do not leave open access behind.

What you can sync between Namely and Wrike

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.

Namely objects Wrike objects How this pairing syncs
Groups Departments and locations that organize Profiles; synced to keep org structure aligned with a warehouse or IdP. Folders & Projects The container hierarchy: Folders group Tasks, and Projects add dates, an owner, and a status. Each maps to a synced table scope, and its structure defines what a sync covers. Groups is specific to Namely and Folders & Projects to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Teams and team categories a Profile belongs to; read and written for org-chart and provisioning workflows. Custom Fields Typed fields (Text, Numeric, Date, DropDown, Contacts, Checkbox) defined at account or space level; mapped to database columns, with values written by field ID. Teams is specific to Namely and Custom Fields to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reports Saved Namely reports returned as JSON snapshots that update instantly; read-only feeds for headcount and roster analytics. Comments Discussion and activity entries attached to Tasks and Folders; read out for history and reporting or written back as comments. Reports is specific to Namely and Comments to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Profile Fields Metadata describing standard and company-defined custom field sections; read to discover schema and generate mappings. Timelogs Time-tracking entries logged against Tasks; read for billing and utilization reporting or written back when hours are recorded elsewhere. Profile Fields is specific to Namely and Timelogs to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events Home-feed items such as announcements, birthdays, anniversaries, and new arrivals; typically read-only into comms tools. Contacts Account members and user groups referenced by task responsibles and authors; read to resolve IDs to names and email addresses. Events is specific to Namely and Contacts to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Profiles The core employee record (personal, job, contact, and compensation fields); synced two-way via GET/POST/PUT with updated_at driving incremental polling. Workflows Sets of custom statuses grouped into stages (Active, Completed, Cancelled, Deferred); read to map task status transitions to database values. Profiles is specific to Namely and Workflows to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Namely and Wrike

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.

Namely Wrike Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Namely for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No webhooks.

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

Wrike Namely Sub-second propagation

DetectionWrike notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks scoped to a folder, a space, or the whole account fire on events like TaskCreated, TaskStatusChanged, and FolderCreated, with event.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Namely: Namely's public docs do not publish a fixed request quota; the REST API returns standard HTTP status codes, so integrations should throttle and back off on 429/5xx responses.
  • Wrike: Approximately 400 requests/minute per user (estimated on a per-second basis) with a higher per-IP ceiling; exceeding the limit or tripping Wrike's internal overload protection returns HTTP 429, handled with exponential backoff.

How the Namely and Wrike connectors work

Namely

Integration surface
REST API (JSON over HTTPS)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 authorization-code grant, or a personal access token sent as a Bearer token; all calls run over HTTPS against https://{subdomain}.namely.com/api/v1
Change detection
No webhooks; integrations poll GET endpoints and compare the updated_at / created_at timestamps on Profiles and related objects to detect changes
Capabilities

Rate limits
Namely's public docs do not publish a fixed request quota; the REST API returns standard HTTP status codes, so integrations should throttle and back off on 429/5xx responses.

Wrike

Integration surface
REST API v4 (JSON), single account endpoint such as www.wrike.com/api/v4; the data-center host (US or EU) comes from the OAuth token response, plus REST-managed Webhooks
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 for multi-user apps (Authorization header carrying access_token and requested scopes), and a legacy Permanent Access Token for single-account and testing use
Change detection
Webhooks scoped to a folder, a space, or the whole account fire on events like TaskCreated, TaskStatusChanged, and FolderCreated, with event filtering and custom payload fields; polling the task updatedDate is the fallback
