Why teams connect Smartrecruiters and Wrike

Keep the people, teams, and status that Wrike and Smartrecruiters share aligned in real time, so a hire, role change, or departure recorded in one reaches the other within seconds.

Each tool in Wrike keeps its own list of who can use it: users, members, or agents, along with the team they sit on and whether they are still active. Smartrecruiters is the authoritative record of the same people as employees, with their department, manager, and employment status. When those two are connected only by manual account admin or a periodic export, the work tools drift: new hires wait days for access, team and manager changes never catch up, and people who have left keep standing accounts.

Stacksync syncs Comments, Timelogs, Contacts, Workflows in Wrike with Candidates, Applications, Jobs, Job Postings in Smartrecruiters bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, moved, or offboarded in Smartrecruiters creates or updates the matching user in Wrike within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of spreadsheets and one-off account changes. Where Wrike captures details of its own, such as a corrected contact or a login identity, those can flow back to Smartrecruiters in whichever direction you configure.

Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps its own extras; only the shared facts, who a person is, which team they belong to, and whether their access should be on, are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Comments and status changes from Wrike into a database so downstream dashboards and tools react to project progress in near real time.
  • 02 Two-way sync of Tasks and their Custom Fields between a Wrike project and Postgres so ops teams work in SQL while project owners stay in Wrike.
  • 03 Subscribe to the Webhooks API to react to new applications and status changes in near real time across downstream systems.
  • 04 Two-way sync Candidates and Applications with Postgres so recruiting-ops apps read and update hiring status, tags, and custom fields in SQL while recruiters keep working in SmartRecruiters.

Common sync patterns

Offboarding: no standing access after a departure

When someone is marked as leaving in Smartrecruiters, the matching account in Wrike is deactivated or flagged, so departures do not leave open access behind.

One employee directory

A person's name, title, contact details, or status corrected in either system updates the other, so both sides stop maintaining separate copies of the same person.

Org and team structure kept current

Department, team, and reporting-line changes from Smartrecruiters keep the groups, queues, or projects in Wrike assigned to the right people.

What you can sync between Smartrecruiters and Wrike

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.

Smartrecruiters objects Wrike objects How this pairing syncs
Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, attachments, custom properties, and consent; created, updated, and searched via the Candidates API, often populated from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Tasks The primary unit of work and main record; created, updated, completed, and deleted via the REST v4 API and synced two-way. Subtasks are Tasks linked by superTask/subTask references. Candidates is specific to Smartrecruiters and Tasks to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Applications Links a Candidate to a Job and carries the current hiring status and source; created and advanced through statuses (screening, interview, offer, hired, rejected) via the Application API. Folders & Projects The container hierarchy: Folders group Tasks, and Projects add dates, an owner, and a status. Each maps to a synced table scope, and its structure defines what a sync covers. Applications is specific to Smartrecruiters and Folders & Projects to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Jobs Requisitions (positions) with openings, departments, locations, and hiring team; created, patched, and read out for requisition and time-to-fill reporting via the Jobs API. Custom Fields Typed fields (Text, Numeric, Date, DropDown, Contacts, Checkbox) defined at account or space level; mapped to database columns, with values written by field ID. Jobs is specific to Smartrecruiters and Custom Fields to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Job Postings Job ads and publications pushed to the career site and job boards; created and managed via the job publication endpoints (rate-limited to 2 requests/sec). Comments Discussion and activity entries attached to Tasks and Folders; read out for history and reporting or written back as comments. Job Postings is specific to Smartrecruiters and Comments to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Interviews Interview types, timeslots, templates, and scheduled interviews with interviewers and times; created, updated, and read for scheduling and interviewer-load analytics. Timelogs Time-tracking entries logged against Tasks; read for billing and utilization reporting or written back when hours are recorded elsewhere. Interviews is specific to Smartrecruiters and Timelogs to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status, custom offer fields, and offer documents; readable and writable, commonly synced to an HRIS on hire (documents endpoint limited to 2 requests/sec). Contacts Account members and user groups referenced by task responsibles and authors; read to resolve IDs to names and email addresses. Offers is specific to Smartrecruiters and Contacts to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Smartrecruiters and Wrike

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 Wrike 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 Wrike through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Wrike Smartrecruiters Sub-second propagation

DetectionWrike notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks scoped to a folder, a space, or the whole account fire on events like TaskCreated, TaskStatusChanged, and FolderCreated, with event.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Smartrecruiters 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.
  • Wrike: Approximately 400 requests/minute per user (estimated on a per-second basis) with a higher per-IP ceiling; exceeding the limit or tripping Wrike's internal overload protection returns HTTP 429, handled with exponential backoff.
