How it works
- You turn sync on for an action on a Connector Profile, and set how often it runs.
- StackOne creates one sync per Linked Account on that profile, for accounts already linked and any linked later.
- Each time a sync fires it is a run, which fetches records from the provider and writes them to the index.
Turn on sync for an action
1
Open the Connector Profile
Go to Connector Profiles, find the profile, and choose Edit Profile.
2
Open the Data Sync tab
The tab lists every action on this connector that can be synced. The same actions carry a blue Syncable tag on the Actions tab.Actions that need parameters to run, such as fetching one record by ID, aren’t syncable and aren’t listed. If the Data Sync tab isn’t there at all, no action on this connector supports sync yet.
3
Enable the action and set its cadence
Toggle sync on for the action, then set Sync every and Full re-sync.
4
Save changes
Saving starts the first sync immediately for every account already linked to the profile.
Accounts linked after you save start syncing on their own first run, with no further configuration. You don’t need to revisit the profile as your customers link accounts.
Full and incremental runs
Most runs are incremental, because they’re cheap. Full runs happen on their own interval to catch what an incremental run structurally cannot.Monitor syncs
Go to Accounts, open an account, and choose the Data Sync tab. Each synced action gets its own panel showing its cadence and when it next runs. Expand a sync to see its recent runs: whether each was full or incremental, how long it took, and how many records it created, updated, left unchanged, or deleted. The Enabled toggle is the one setting that’s per-account. Turn it off to stop syncing an action for this account without touching the profile or any other account.
A sync shows Paused when the action, or sync for that action, is switched off on the Connector Profile. Nothing runs until it’s turned back on.
Limits
The provider count means providers with at least one sync enabled, not actions. Syncing a second action on a provider you already sync costs nothing against it, and two Connector Profiles on the same provider count once.
Storage is measured in total record bytes, not fields, so there’s no cap on how wide a record can be. A connector can lower the per-run page and duration ceilings for an action that needs it, but never raise them.
Two more constraints are worth planning around rather than reading as numbers:
- Not every action can be synced. Actions that need parameters to run, such as fetching one record by ID, have no sync. See Turn on sync for an action.
- Deletions wait for a full run. Set Full re-sync to match how quickly you need them reflected.
