Why teams connect Navan and Zoho SalesIQ

Sync customers, invoices, and payment status between Navan and Zoho SalesIQ in real time, so sales sees the money and finance sees the relationship.

Finance and sales describe the same customers in different systems. Zoho SalesIQ knows the relationship: who the contacts are and what is in motion with the account. Navan knows the money: what was invoiced, what was paid, what is overdue. When the two are connected only by exports, each side works partly blind.

Stacksync links Receipts, Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments, Users, Card Transactions in Navan to Articles, Visitors, Conversations, Contacts (People) in Zoho SalesIQ with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, updated billing details, invoice status, and payment activity move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. The result is one version of each customer, visible from both sides.

Common use cases

  • 01 Pull Bookings by date range into a database to reconcile travel reservations against Card Transactions and monitor travel-policy spend.
  • 02 Sync Users and department mappings from an HRIS into reporting tables so every transaction is attributed to a cost center and manager.
  • 03 Sync SalesIQ conversations and visitor details into a CRM so reps see chat history on the contact record.
  • 04 Push chat-qualified leads into an outbound or marketing platform automatically.

Common sync patterns

Billing detail changes flow back

When a contact or address is corrected in Zoho SalesIQ, Navan gets the update before the next invoice goes out.

Where Zoho SalesIQ tracks deals: closed-won creates the finance record

How the Navan and Zoho SalesIQ connectors work

Navan

Integration surface
REST (Expense API and Booking API)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client-credentials flow; an admin creates a client_id and client_secret under Settings > Integrations and exchanges them at Navan's OAuth token endpoint for a short-lived bearer token that is refreshed on expiry (separate US and EU regional hosts)
Change detection
Navan's Expense API supports webhooks for transaction and expense events; sync engines also poll GET endpoints with date-range and updatedAt filters (createdFrom/createdTo for bookings) to backfill history and reconcile. There is no database-level CDC.
