Why teams connect Adobeanalytics and Databricks

Flow Adobeanalytics data into Databricks in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

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

Adobeanalytics is where teams explore, visualize, and report; Databricks is the store of record that holds the raw tables and full history behind those views. The two overlap wherever the same events, users, and metrics matter to both, and when the bridge between them is a nightly export or a hand-built extract, dashboards lag the warehouse and analysts spend the morning arguing over whose number is right.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read Users and Usage/Audit logs into a security or governance database for access reviews and tool-usage reporting across the Analytics company.
  • 02 Feed report metrics into a data model that blends channel performance with conversion and cost data.
  • 03 Serve ML feature outputs computed in Databricks to production apps through a synced operational store.
  • 04 Land CRM and ERP records in Delta tables continuously so lakehouse models work from current operational data.

Common sync patterns

Shared user and account keys

Users and accounts tracked in Adobeanalytics line up with the customer or user rows in Databricks on a stable key, so both sides count the same population.

Corrections propagate instead of reloading

When a record is fixed or backfilled on one side, the change reaches the other without a full reload, keeping history consistent across both.

One number both sides agree on

Metrics and aggregates stay aligned between the two systems, so a figure shown in Adobeanalytics matches the Databricks table it was built from instead of drifting between refreshes.

What you can sync between Adobeanalytics and Databricks

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.

Adobeanalytics objects Databricks objects How this pairing syncs
Dimensions Available report dimensions (eVars, props, and standard dimensions) per report suite, read via GET /dimensions; pulled as reporting metadata to build report requests and mirror the model. Volumes Unity Catalog file storage used for staging bulk loads. Dimensions is specific to Adobeanalytics and Volumes to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metrics Standard metrics available for a report suite, read via GET /metrics; read as metadata to construct report requests and document available measures. SQL Warehouses The compute endpoint a sync connects to for query execution. Metrics is specific to Adobeanalytics and SQL Warehouses to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calculated Metrics User-defined derived metrics, read via GET /calculatedmetrics; mirrored so downstream tools reference the same calculated-metric definitions. Change Data Feed Row-level change records on Delta tables that drive incremental reads. Calculated Metrics is specific to Adobeanalytics and Change Data Feed to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Saved segment definitions used to filter reports, read via GET /segments; cataloged and reused so downstream systems target the same audiences. Catalogs Top level of the Unity Catalog namespace, scoping which schemas a sync can address. Segments is specific to Adobeanalytics and Catalogs to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Date Ranges Saved relative or rolling date ranges, read via GET /dateranges; read as reusable reporting components for report requests. Schemas Group tables and views; syncs typically target a dedicated schema per source system. Date Ranges is specific to Adobeanalytics and Schemas to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Report Suites Report suite and virtual report suite configuration read via the /collections/suites endpoint; enumerated to list the report suites available to the company. Delta Tables The primary read and write target; operational data lands here as managed or external tables. Report Suites is specific to Adobeanalytics and Delta Tables to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adobeanalytics and Databricks

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.

Adobeanalytics Databricks Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Adobeanalytics for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Pull-based over a date range: reports are requested for a from/to window and re-queried on a schedule.

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

Databricks Adobeanalytics Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Databricks are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Delta Lake Change Data Feed for row-level changes.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adobeanalytics: The Analytics 2.0 API enforces 12 requests per 6 seconds (about 120 per minute) per user; exceeding it returns HTTP 429 with error_code 429050. A separate per-report-suite reporting-engine throttle can slow large requests without returning an error.
  • Databricks: Throughput depends on the SQL warehouse size; API calls are subject to workspace rate limits.

How the Adobeanalytics and Databricks connectors work

Adobeanalytics

Integration surface
Analytics 2.0 REST API on analytics.adobe.io for reporting and components; Data Feeds and Data Warehouse for raw hit-level export; Data Insertion and Bulk Data Insertion (CSV) APIs for inbound server-side collection.
Authentication
OAuth Server-to-Server via the Adobe Developer Console (JWT service-account auth was deprecated January 1, 2025). The company's global company ID is sent in the x-proxy-global-company-id header, and the integration needs at least the Report Suites, Metrics, and Dimensions permission groups.
Change detection
Pull-based over a date range: reports are requested for a from/to window and re-queried on a schedule. No change-data-capture feed or report-data webhooks; Adobe recommends not polling for new data faster than every 30 minutes and caching results.
