Why teams connect Success Factors and ZoomInfo

Flow ZoomInfo data into Success Factors in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

ZoomInfo is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Success Factors, so Success Factors always reflects the current state of ZoomInfo — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

ZoomInfo 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 Success Factors. Success Factors 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.

Common use cases

  • 01 Align CRM account hierarchies with ZoomInfo's corporate hierarchy data.
  • 02 Enrich CRM accounts and contacts on a schedule so firmographics, titles, and phone numbers stay current.
  • 03 Write updated PerEmail, PerPhone, and User attributes back into SuccessFactors from an identity or directory system so contact data stays current.
  • 04 Two-way sync of User and EmpJob (position, department, manager, cost center) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current org data in SQL while HR edits in SuccessFactors.

Common sync patterns

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

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

Deactivate access when someone leaves

When Success Factors marks a worker as departed, the matching user in ZoomInfo 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.

What you can sync between Success Factors and ZoomInfo

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.

Success Factors objects ZoomInfo objects How this pairing syncs
User Core identity/User entity behind role-based permissions; a model distinct from Employee Central, synced two-way with a directory or IdP and downstream apps. Company Profiles Firmographic records covering industry, size, revenue, and location, matched against CRM accounts. User is specific to Success Factors and Company Profiles to ZoomInfo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
PerPerson Person-level container in Employee Central holding biographical data; effective-dated child entities (PerPersonal, PerEmail, PerPhone) hang off it. Contact Profiles Person records with title, email, phone, and company linkage, used to enrich leads and contacts. PerPerson is specific to Success Factors and Contact Profiles to ZoomInfo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
EmpEmployment Employment record tying a person to an employment period (hire, service dates); carries lastModifiedDateTime used for incremental polling. Intent Signals Company-level topic scores indicating in-market buying behavior. EmpEmployment is specific to Success Factors and Intent Signals to ZoomInfo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
EmpJob Effective-dated job info: position, department, manager, FTE, pay grade, cost center; the most-synced record for downstream HR and provisioning. Scoops Event-driven signals such as leadership changes, funding rounds, and new projects. EmpJob is specific to Success Factors and Scoops to ZoomInfo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
EmpCompensation Effective-dated pay and compensation; usually read into a warehouse for reporting, writable for comp updates as new dated slices. Technographics Technology install data per company, used for segmentation and territory planning. EmpCompensation is specific to Success Factors and Technographics to ZoomInfo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) Org-structure master data (department, location, cost center, division); mastered elsewhere and written in, or read out to build org charts. Company Hierarchies Parent and subsidiary linkage used to align CRM account hierarchies. Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) is specific to Success Factors and Company Hierarchies to ZoomInfo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Success Factors and ZoomInfo

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.

Success Factors ZoomInfo Sub-second propagation

DetectionSuccess Factors notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on each entity's lastModifiedDateTime / lastModifiedOn (effective-dated entities require date-range handling).

DeliveryZoomInfo does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: ZoomInfo's output flows back as field updates on the originating Success Factors records.

ZoomInfo Success Factors Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls ZoomInfo for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Scheduled re-enrichment and polling.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Success Factors: OData calls are throttled at the tenant level (Access Limits for OData V2); large reads must be paginated (default page size 1000) via $top/$skip or paging cursors.
  • ZoomInfo: Usage is metered by credits and contract-based limits rather than a single public rate limit.
