Why teams connect PagerDuty and Quip

Connect the tickets, records, and events in Quip to the systems engineering runs in PagerDuty, kept current in real time and in both directions.

Quip is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. PagerDuty is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.

Stacksync syncs Folders, Messages, Users, Blobs in Quip with Schedules, Escalation Policies, On-Calls, Notes and Log Entries in PagerDuty field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Folders and their membership with an identity or HR source so team spaces track org structure.
  • 02 Post a new_message into a linked Quip thread when a record changes in a CRM or ticketing system, notifying the account team where they plan.
  • 03 Provision and deactivate Users and Team memberships two-way from an HRIS or identity provider so the on-call roster matches the current org.
  • 04 Write Schedules and Escalation Policies from a workforce tool or source-of-truth spreadsheet so rotations and overrides stay consistent across teams.

Common sync patterns

Where PagerDuty tracks engineering work: requests become issues

A ticket or request raised in Quip opens or updates a matching issue in PagerDuty, and status, comments, and resolution flow back, so support and engineering work the same item instead of retyping it.

Where PagerDuty moves messages between services: activity lands on the stream

Records created or changed in Quip publish to the queue or topic in PagerDuty as they happen, so downstream services react to real events rather than polling for them.

Where PagerDuty is the directory or identity source: one set of users

People and accounts in Quip stay matched to the users in PagerDuty, so access, provisioning, and org changes propagate instead of being keyed in twice.

What you can sync between PagerDuty and Quip

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.

PagerDuty objects Quip objects How this pairing syncs
Users Responders with contact methods and notification rules; provisioned and updated two-way to keep the on-call roster aligned with an HRIS or identity provider. Users Member records read individually or via contacts; get_authenticated_user identifies the token owner. Used read-only for directory-style syncs. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Notes and Log Entries Notes are writable to append context to an incident; log entries are a read-only record of every action taken on that incident. Folders Private, Shared, and Group containers that organize threads; membership is added or removed via the folders endpoints for access control. Notes and Log Entries is specific to PagerDuty and Folders to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Incidents Core records with status of triggered, acknowledged, or resolved plus urgency and assignments; created, updated, and resolved two-way, with V3 webhooks firing on each transition. Messages Comments and chat posts on a thread; the most recent are read with get_messages and new ones written with new_message. Incidents is specific to PagerDuty and Messages to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Services Technical services that group incidents and hold integration keys; read and written two-way, with service.created, service.updated, and service.deleted webhook events. Blobs Images and file attachments stored per thread; downloaded with get_blob and uploaded with put_blob against a specific thread ID. Services is specific to PagerDuty and Blobs to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Groupings of users, services, and escalation policies; synced two-way so membership mirrors org structure from an IdP or HRIS. Documents Editable rich-text threads addressed by ID; created and updated over REST via HTML or Markdown sections, with an updated_usec timestamp used to detect edits. Teams is specific to PagerDuty and Documents to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schedules On-call rotations built from layers and overrides; read and written so calendar or workforce tools can drive who is on call. Spreadsheets Live-spreadsheet threads; rows and cells are read and written through add_to_spreadsheet and update_spreadsheet_row helpers on the same thread endpoints. Schedules is specific to PagerDuty and Spreadsheets to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between PagerDuty and Quip

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.

PagerDuty Quip Sub-second propagation

DetectionPagerDuty notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. V3 webhook subscriptions push incident.* and service.* events (triggered, acknowledged, escalated, resolved, created, updated).

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

Quip PagerDuty Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Quip for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • PagerDuty: REST API allows 960 requests per minute per token and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; the Events API is rate-limited separately per integration key.
  • Quip: Automation API allows roughly 50 requests per minute per access token; exceeding it returns HTTP 503, and responses carry X-RateLimit headers.

How the PagerDuty and Quip connectors work

PagerDuty

Integration surface
REST API v2 (plus Events API v2 for inbound alerts)
Authentication
REST API token via the Authorization: Token header (account-level for full access or user-level scoped to the user's permissions), or OAuth 2.0 (Authorization Code / PKCE); the Events API v2 uses a per-service routing (integration) key
Change detection
V3 webhook subscriptions push incident.* and service.* events (triggered, acknowledged, escalated, resolved, created, updated); list endpoints also support polling with updated_at and since/until windows
Capabilities

Quip

REST (v1 Automation API)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens (RFC 6749/6750) or a Personal Access Token; domain admins can pre-approve apps for domain-wide authentication
Change detection
Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec; there is no change-data-capture and no outbound change webhook
