Why teams connect Neo4j and Xactly

Treat Xactly like part of your database: its records live in Neo4j as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in Neo4j, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Products & Customers, Orders, Credits, Transactions (Commission & Bonus) from Xactly into Databases, Users & Roles, Nodes, Relationships in Neo4j with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Xactly with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror commission Transactions and Credits into a data warehouse to power rep-facing dashboards and comp-plan analytics without manual exports.
  • 02 Sync Participants, Positions, Titles, and Quotas from an HRIS/HCM and planning tools into Xactly so the org hierarchy and targets stay aligned with headcount changes.
  • 03 Write computed relationship scores (fraud, influence, similarity) back to operational systems.
  • 04 Keep a customer-360 graph continuously updated from ERP, CRM, and support sources.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Xactly API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Xactly arrive as row changes in Neo4j, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Xactly become tables in Neo4j you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Neo4j and Xactly

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.

Neo4j objects Xactly objects How this pairing syncs
Labels Node type markers used to map source tables or objects onto the graph. Products & Customers Product and customer/account master used in crediting rules and reporting; loaded and updated from CRM/ERP through Connect (write) and read for lookups, so read and write. Labels is specific to Neo4j and Products & Customers to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes & Constraints Uniqueness constraints and indexes that make MERGE-based upserts reliable and fast. Orders Sales order and transaction records loaded into Incent as the raw input for crediting and calculation; created and updated through Connect load and ETL steps (write) and read back for reconciliation, so read and write. Indexes & Constraints is specific to Neo4j and Orders to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Named databases in a single instance that scope multi-tenant or multi-domain syncs. Credits Crediting records that tie an order to a participant and position; system-calculated credits are read, while manual and adjustment credits are loaded through Connect, so read and write. Databases is specific to Neo4j and Credits to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users & Roles Security principals controlling what an integration credential can query or modify. Transactions (Commission & Bonus) Calculated commission and bonus line items produced by Incent's calculation engine; read as the output of comp runs for reporting and downstream payout, so effectively read-only results. Users & Roles is specific to Neo4j and Transactions (Commission & Bonus) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Nodes Entity records (customers, products, accounts) written from source systems as labeled nodes. Participants (Payees) Sales reps and payees keyed to positions; loaded and updated from HRIS/HCM source data through Connect (write) and read for roster reporting, so read and write. Nodes is specific to Neo4j and Participants (Payees) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Relationships Typed, directed edges that carry the connections syncs exist to model. Positions & Titles Org-hierarchy positions and titles that credits and quotas roll up to; loaded and maintained through Connect (write) and read to resolve the hierarchy, so read and write. Relationships is specific to Neo4j and Positions & Titles to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Neo4j and Xactly

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.

Neo4j Xactly Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Neo4j are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Neo4j Change Data Capture on Enterprise and Aura streams graph changes.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Xactly as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Xactly Neo4j Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Xactly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC log for external tools to consume.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Neo4j through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Xactly: Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.

How the Neo4j and Xactly connectors work

Neo4j

Integration surface
Bolt binary protocol with Cypher via official drivers, plus an HTTP query API
Authentication
Username/password (basic auth); enterprise deployments add SSO options
Change detection
Neo4j Change Data Capture on Enterprise and Aura streams graph changes; otherwise Cypher polling on timestamp properties
Capabilities
read · write · CDC

Xactly

Integration surface
Xactly Connect REST API v2 (JSON), plus ODBC/JDBC drivers over the same ANSI-SQL data model. Incent data is exposed as SQL-queryable objects (for example xactly_order, xactly_credit, xactly_transaction, xactly_payment); data is loaded and extracted through Connect load/query steps and server-side ETL Pipelines. The base host is region/pod-specific (for example https://<pod>.xactlycorp.com).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Xactly Connect API Gateway (bearer tokens issued on behalf of an Xactly Incent user), with HTTP Basic authentication using a dedicated Xactly Connect service-user's credentials also supported for the Connect REST API v2. The connecting user needs Connect/API access plus the relevant object permissions in Incent.
Change detection
No CDC log for external tools to consume. Incremental sync uses SQL predicates on modified/last-updated timestamp columns (for example WHERE modified_date > watermark) against Connect's queryable objects, or scheduled Connect ETL Pipelines that pull deltas since the last run. Xactly Connect has no outbound HTTP webhooks, so change detection is pull/ETL-based.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.
