Why teams connect GitHub and Microsoft 365

Stop re-entering the same information in GitHub and Microsoft 365: 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 Releases, Workflow runs (Actions), Organizations and Teams, Users in GitHub with Mail Messages, Calendar Events, Contacts, OneDrive Files (driveItems) in Microsoft 365 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

  • Create GitHub issues automatically from records written elsewhere, such as bug reports logged in a CRM case object.
  • Publish release data into customer-communication tools when a new version ships.
  • Mirror calendar events into scheduling or CRM tools so meetings appear on customer timelines.
  • Sync SharePoint lists with operational databases so business users edit in SharePoint while systems read SQL.

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 Microsoft 365 is where the team documents or plans: keep its data fed

Information that originates in GitHub stays current in Microsoft 365 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 GitHub and Microsoft 365

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.

GitHub objects Microsoft 365 objects
Repositories Top-level containers whose metadata and settings syncs read to scope other objects. Users Entra ID user accounts synced with HR and identity systems.
Issues Synced two-way with project trackers and support tools, including labels and assignees. Groups Microsoft 365 and security groups kept aligned with org structure and access rules.
Pull Requests Review state, status checks, and merge status feed engineering dashboards and workflow tools. Mail Messages Exchange Online messages read for logging, archiving, or activity capture.
Commits Read-only history used to link code activity to tickets and releases. Calendar Events Events synced with scheduling tools and CRMs for meeting visibility.
Releases Tagged versions synced into changelogs, CRMs, or customer-notification systems. Contacts Personal and org contacts kept consistent with CRM contact records.
Workflow runs (Actions) CI results synced into incident and reporting systems. OneDrive Files (driveItems) File and folder metadata synced for document workflows and audits.
