Why teams connect Xactly and Yellowbrick

Sync Xactly into Yellowbrick continuously and push warehouse results back onto CRM records, one two-way connection instead of two pipelines.

The CRM feeds the warehouse and the warehouse should feed the CRM: relationship data flows one way, and computed scores, segments, and customer context flow back. Most teams build the first half as a batch pipeline and never quite get to the second.

Stacksync does both with one connection. Payment Summary (Payable), Products & Customers, Orders, Credits from Xactly land in Yellowbrick as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Yellowbrick write back to fields in Xactly. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror commission Transactions and Credits into a data warehouse to power rep-facing dashboards and comp-plan analytics without manual exports.
  • 02 Sync Participants, Positions, Titles, and Quotas from an HRIS/HCM and planning tools into Xactly so the org hierarchy and targets stay aligned with headcount changes.
  • 03 Push warehouse-computed aggregates or segments back into operational tools such as a CRM.
  • 04 Sync CRM and marketing data into Yellowbrick tables so it can be joined with large fact tables for enterprise BI.

Common sync patterns

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Xactly are queryable in Yellowbrick moments after they change, so dashboards stop lagging the reality they describe.

Scores and segments back on the record

Lead scores, churn risk, or usage segments computed in Yellowbrick appear as fields in Xactly, where the people working accounts actually see them.

A single customer view

Join Xactly's relationship data with billing, product, and support data in Yellowbrick to build the customer picture the CRM alone cannot hold.

What you can sync between Xactly and Yellowbrick

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.

Xactly objects Yellowbrick objects How this pairing syncs
Payment Summary (Payable) Approved payable amounts per participant per period; read as the output that feeds payroll and accounts payable, so effectively read-only. Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced datasets by source or domain. Payment Summary (Payable) is specific to Xactly and Schemas to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Products & Customers Product and customer/account master used in crediting rules and reporting; loaded and updated from CRM/ERP through Connect (write) and read for lookups, so read and write. Tables Columnar MPP tables; the primary targets for warehouse syncs. Products & Customers is specific to Xactly and Tables to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Orders Sales order and transaction records loaded into Incent as the raw input for crediting and calculation; created and updated through Connect load and ETL steps (write) and read back for reconciliation, so read and write. Views Logical views used to shape reads for BI and downstream syncs. Orders is specific to Xactly and Views to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Credits Crediting records that tie an order to a participant and position; system-calculated credits are read, while manual and adjustment credits are loaded through Connect, so read and write. Users and Roles Access-control objects that govern what a sync service account can read and write. Credits is specific to Xactly and Users and Roles to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Transactions (Commission & Bonus) Calculated commission and bonus line items produced by Incent's calculation engine; read as the output of comp runs for reporting and downstream payout, so effectively read-only results. Databases Top-level containers for schemas and tables. Transactions (Commission & Bonus) is specific to Xactly and Databases to Yellowbrick — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Xactly and Yellowbrick

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.

Xactly Yellowbrick Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Xactly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC log for external tools to consume.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Yellowbrick as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Yellowbrick Xactly Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Yellowbrick for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on timestamp columns.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Xactly as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Xactly: Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.
  • Yellowbrick: No API rate limits; throughput depends on cluster sizing, and bulk loads should use ybload rather than row-by-row inserts.

How the Xactly and Yellowbrick connectors work

Xactly

Integration surface
Xactly Connect REST API v2 (JSON), plus ODBC/JDBC drivers over the same ANSI-SQL data model. Incent data is exposed as SQL-queryable objects (for example xactly_order, xactly_credit, xactly_transaction, xactly_payment); data is loaded and extracted through Connect load/query steps and server-side ETL Pipelines. The base host is region/pod-specific (for example https://<pod>.xactlycorp.com).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Xactly Connect API Gateway (bearer tokens issued on behalf of an Xactly Incent user), with HTTP Basic authentication using a dedicated Xactly Connect service-user's credentials also supported for the Connect REST API v2. The connecting user needs Connect/API access plus the relevant object permissions in Incent.
Change detection
No CDC log for external tools to consume. Incremental sync uses SQL predicates on modified/last-updated timestamp columns (for example WHERE modified_date > watermark) against Connect's queryable objects, or scheduled Connect ETL Pipelines that pull deltas since the last run. Xactly Connect has no outbound HTTP webhooks, so change detection is pull/ETL-based.
