Why teams connect Adobe Sign and TimescaleDB

Mirror Adobe Sign's data into TimescaleDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Adobe Sign through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in TimescaleDB.

Stacksync mirrors Agreements, Agreement Form Field Data, Agreement Events, Library Templates from Adobe Sign into Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas, Hypertables in TimescaleDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Adobe Sign, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync completed Agreements and their Agreement Form Field Data into a Postgres warehouse so operations and finance query signer inputs (contract value, effective dates, checkbox selections) in SQL.
  • 02 Provision and deactivate Users and Groups from an HR system or identity provider so Acrobat Sign membership and group placement track employee status.
  • 03 Keep device or asset reference tables bi-directionally in sync between TimescaleDB and an ERP.
  • 04 Consolidate metrics from several services into one hypertable to serve a single reporting layer.

Common sync patterns

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Adobe Sign arrive as row changes in TimescaleDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Adobe Sign with a query

Records from Adobe Sign are ordinary rows in TimescaleDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

What you can sync between Adobe Sign and TimescaleDB

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.

Adobe Sign objects TimescaleDB objects How this pairing syncs
Groups Organizational groups that scope sharing and settings; synced from org structure or an IdP. Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment. Groups is specific to Adobe Sign and Schemas to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Agreements The core e-signature transaction; created and sent from other systems, then read back for status (out-for-signature, signed, cancelled) and the completed PDF. Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs. Agreements is specific to Adobe Sign and Hypertables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Agreement Form Field Data Merge fields prefilled at send and values captured from signers; read into a database so contract terms and inputs are queryable. Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly. Agreement Form Field Data is specific to Adobe Sign and Chunks to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Agreement Events Per-agreement audit trail of every action (viewed, delegated, signed); read-only, synced into compliance stores. Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems. Agreement Events is specific to Adobe Sign and Continuous Aggregates to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Library Templates Reusable document templates (libraryDocuments); referenced when creating Agreements and synced for template governance. Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data. Library Templates is specific to Adobe Sign and Regular PostgreSQL Tables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Widgets Reusable web signing forms with a public URL; submissions read out to trigger downstream onboarding or fulfillment. Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers. Widgets is specific to Adobe Sign and Views to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adobe Sign and TimescaleDB

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.

Adobe Sign TimescaleDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionAdobe Sign notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (REST v6 webhook subscriptions) fire near-real-time on agreement events such as created, action requested, completed, and cancelled.

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

TimescaleDB Adobe Sign Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in TimescaleDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adobe Sign: Per-user throttling at minute, hour, and day tiers shared between web UI and API traffic; exceeding a tier returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Exponential backoff with jitter is recommended.
  • TimescaleDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
