Why teams connect Smartsheet and Sysaid

Stop re-entering the same information in Smartsheet and Sysaid: Stacksync keeps the records they share consistent in real time, in both directions.

Two tools in the daily stack often hold overlapping information: the same people, the same companies, or the same pieces of work, described twice. The tools do different jobs, so consolidating is not the answer; the overlap just needs to stop drifting.

Stacksync syncs Users and Groups, Sheets, Rows, Columns in Smartsheet with Companies, Custom Fields, Incidents, Service Requests in Sysaid in real time. You choose which records overlap, map the fields that should match, and pick a direction or let changes flow both ways. From then on, an update made in either tool is reflected in the other within seconds, without exports or copy-paste.

Because the sync is field-level, each tool keeps its own extras; only the shared data is held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write records from a CRM or ERP into Smartsheet Rows so ops teams manage intake and status in a grid, then push status Cells back to the source.
  • 02 Pull Reports and Sheets into a warehouse for cross-project reporting and dashboards without manual CSV exports.
  • 03 Two-way sync Incidents and Service Requests with a Postgres database so on-call and internal apps read and update tickets in SQL while agents keep working in SysAid.
  • 04 Create SysAid Incidents from monitoring or error-tracking alerts, then write status and resolution back so both systems stay aligned.

Common sync patterns

Where one tool produces events: mirror them in the other

Payments, replies, messages, or tickets created in one tool can create or update matching records in the other, keeping context in one place.

Where Sysaid is where the team documents or plans: keep its data fed

Information that originates in Smartsheet stays current in Sysaid instead of going stale after a one-time paste.

Handoffs between teams

When work started in one tool continues in the other, the shared fields travel with it automatically.

What you can sync between Smartsheet and Sysaid

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.

Smartsheet objects Sysaid objects How this pairing syncs
Reports Read-only roll-ups spanning multiple sheets; pulled into a warehouse for cross-sheet reporting, capped at 50,000 rows. Assets Hardware and software inventory; read out to a warehouse or written from a discovery or CMDB source of truth. Reports is specific to Smartsheet and Assets to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attachments Files linked to rows or sheets; posting one carries a 10x rate cost, so bulk file sync is throttled to 30 per minute. Configuration Items (CIs) CMDB entries and their relationships; synced with an external CMDB or asset database for one inventory view. Attachments is specific to Smartsheet and Configuration Items (CIs) to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Discussions and Comments Threaded comments on rows and sheets; read out to sync collaboration history or activity into another system. Companies Customer and department organizations that scope tickets and users; mapped to Accounts in a CRM or org tables in a database. Discussions and Comments is specific to Smartsheet and Companies to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Groups Account membership and sharing; synced to keep an HR or identity source aligned with sheet and workspace access. Custom Fields Org-specific fields on service records, discoverable through the API so mappings can be generated without hardcoding names. Users and Groups is specific to Smartsheet and Custom Fields to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sheets The core container; each sheet has typed columns, rows, and a modifiedAt stamp. Stacksync treats a sheet as a table and syncs its rows two-way. Incidents Break/fix tickets under /api/v1/sr with type=incident; created and updated two-way with status, priority, assignee, category, and SLA fields. Sheets is specific to Smartsheet and Incidents to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows Records inside a sheet, each with createdAt/modifiedAt and cells keyed by columnId; the primary unit synced to and from external tables. Service Requests Catalog and help-desk requests on the same /sr endpoint (type=request); written or read so fulfillment can be driven from another system. Rows is specific to Smartsheet and Service Requests to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Smartsheet and Sysaid

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.

Smartsheet Sysaid Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartsheet notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Sheet-scoped webhooks subscribed to *.* events notify on row and cell changes.

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

Sysaid Smartsheet Sub-second propagation

DetectionSysaid notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Smartsheet: 300 requests per minute per access token; heavy calls like posting attachments cost 10x (30/min). A 429 returns errorCode 4003, back off ~60s.
  • Sysaid: Requests are throttled per the X-RateLimit-Limit / -Remaining / -Reset headers; list calls are paginated with a limit parameter and each org is capped at 100 application keys.
