Why teams connect Plex ERP and SendGrid

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between SendGrid and Plex ERP.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. SendGrid is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Unsubscribe Groups, Email Activity, Contacts, List in SendGrid with Production jobs, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Customers in Plex ERP bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • 01 Reconcile transactional email activity with support tickets so agents see what a customer was sent
  • 02 Sync CRM contacts and their custom fields into SendGrid lists so campaign targeting reflects live sales data
  • 03 Feed quality and scrap data to dashboards supervisors check without logging into Plex.
  • 04 Sync production and inventory data from Plex into a warehouse or Postgres for plant-level analytics.

Common sync patterns

Where SendGrid faces customers and Plex ERP carries account records

Order, invoice, or account status from Plex ERP appears alongside the customer in SendGrid, so front-line teams answer from live data.

Where SendGrid collects payments: transactions post through

Payment events sync into Plex ERP as they occur, keeping the enterprise records current without manual entry.

Where Plex ERP is the HR or people system of record

Worker and organization data from Plex ERP stays current in SendGrid, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.

What you can sync between Plex ERP and SendGrid

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.

Sales orders is specific to Plex ERP and Contacts to SendGrid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Plex ERP and SendGrid

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.

Plex ERP SendGrid Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Plex ERP for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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

SendGrid Plex ERP Sub-second propagation

DetectionSendGrid notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Event Webhook posts delivery and engagement events (processed, delivered, open, click, bounce, spam report) to an HTTP endpoint.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Plex ERP: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
  • SendGrid: Subject to the platform's API rate limits; contact upserts are batched, asynchronous jobs rather than per-row writes.
