Why teams connect Smartrecruiters and Vitally

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

Vitally 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 Smartrecruiters. Smartrecruiters 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 NPS Response, Custom Trait, Account, User in Vitally with Candidates, Applications, Jobs, Job Postings in Smartrecruiters field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Smartrecruiters stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Vitally keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep CS tasks and notes aligned between Vitally and ticketing or project tools.
  • 02 Sync account health scores and lifecycle stages from Vitally into a CRM so sales sees churn risk before renewals.
  • 03 Export Interviews and Offers to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load, offer-acceptance rates, and hiring outcomes.
  • 04 Subscribe to the Webhooks API to react to new applications and status changes in near real time across downstream systems.

Common sync patterns

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

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

Deactivate access when someone leaves

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

One directory of people

A person's name, title, email, phone, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so both stop maintaining separate copies of the same individual.

How changes propagate between Smartrecruiters and Vitally

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.

Smartrecruiters Vitally Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartrecruiters notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks API — subscribe to events (new application, candidate updated, status changed) delivered with a signing secret and retrievable callback logs.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Smartrecruiters: Per API credential: most endpoints allow up to 10 requests/sec (job publication and offer documents 2/sec), plus a concurrency limiter of up to 8 simultaneous requests (GET /candidates capped at 1). Exceeding returns 429; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit/Remaining and concurrent-limit headers.
  • Vitally: Default rate limit of 1,000 requests/min (token bucket); write operations consume more budget, headers expose remaining quota.
