Why teams connect Paylocity and Streak CRM

Keep the people who own accounts in Streak CRM in step with the workforce records in Paylocity, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.

Streak CRM runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Paylocity. Paylocity is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Stacksync syncs Boxes, Stages, Contacts, Organizations in Streak CRM with Earnings (Pay Setup), Local and State Taxes, Direct Deposit, Pay Statements in Paylocity field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Paylocity stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Streak CRM keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Streak boxes into Postgres so operations can query pipeline data with SQL and back internal tools
  • 02 Push deals and contacts into a warehouse to report on pipeline alongside product and billing data
  • 03 Two-way sync of Employees between Paylocity and an HRIS or identity provider so new hires, terminations, and demographic edits flow both directions.
  • 04 Push hired candidates from an ATS into Paylocity via the Onboarding endpoint, then read Onboarding Status to confirm the record before the first payroll run.

Common sync patterns

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Paylocity records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Streak CRM, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

When a person changes team, manager, or region in Paylocity, their accounts and territory assignments in Streak CRM update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

Deactivate access when someone leaves

When Paylocity marks a worker as departed, the matching user in Streak CRM is flagged or deactivated, so former employees do not keep CRM access after their last day.

How the Paylocity and Streak CRM connectors work

Paylocity

Integration surface
REST API (v1 and v2), JSON payloads
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client credentials via the Paylocity Identity Provider (/IdentityServer/connect/token) with the WebLinkAPI scope; access tokens expire after one hour and API access must be enabled by Paylocity for the company
Change detection
Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL; payloads carry only companyId and employeeId, so the receiver calls the relevant API to fetch changed values. Scheduled polling is used for objects without webhooks.
