Why teams connect Adobeanalytics and SQL Server

Give Adobeanalytics the users, events, and records that live in SQL Server in real time, and sync the cohorts and scores Adobeanalytics computes back into SQL Server where your applications read them.

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

A database holds the rows your business runs on: the users, events, orders, and records that every service reads and writes. Adobeanalytics is where people make sense of them, as dashboards, funnels, cohorts, and metrics. Moving the data from SQL Server into Adobeanalytics usually means a hand-built extract or a change-data-capture pipeline that breaks the moment a column is renamed, and reporting that always trails last night's load.

Common use cases

  • 01 Load report data on a schedule into a reporting database for executive dashboards without manual Analysis Workspace exports or Report Builder pulls.
  • 02 Sync Segment definitions into a marketing database so downstream tools target the same audiences Adobe Analytics computes.
  • 03 Bi-directional sync between SQL Server rows and CRM objects so .NET line-of-business apps and sales tools share one dataset
  • 04 Expose SaaS records as SQL Server tables that existing SSRS reports and internal apps can query

Common sync patterns

Filter and grouping dimensions kept fresh

Attributes teams slice by, such as plan, region, or account owner, stay current in Adobeanalytics because they sync from SQL Server as they change, instead of going stale after a one-time import.

Where Adobeanalytics tracks product events: behavior onto stored records

Signup, usage, and lifecycle events captured in Adobeanalytics sync into SQL Server as rows, so applications and internal tools can read behavioral data next to the records they already keep.

Where Adobeanalytics builds cohorts or scores: results your services can read

Segments, cohorts, or scores computed in Adobeanalytics sync back into SQL Server, where the services that read from the database act on them at query speed without calling the analytics API.

What you can sync between Adobeanalytics and SQL Server

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 SQL Server objects How this pairing syncs
Segments Saved segment definitions used to filter reports, read via GET /segments; cataloged and reused so downstream systems target the same audiences. CDC Change Tables System-populated tables holding captured inserts, updates, and deletes for consumers. Segments is specific to Adobeanalytics and CDC Change Tables to SQL Server — 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. Stored Procedures T-SQL logic that can validate or post-process synced rows. Date Ranges is specific to Adobeanalytics and Stored Procedures to SQL Server — 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. Databases Instance-level databases that scope a sync's reads and writes. Report Suites is specific to Adobeanalytics and Databases to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Users in the Analytics company, read via GET /users and /users/me; loaded for access, entitlement, and identity reconciliation reporting. Schemas Namespaces (dbo and custom) used to organize synced tables. Users is specific to Adobeanalytics and Schemas to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Usage and Access Logs Admin audit and usage logs of report and tool activity, read via the usage/audit-log endpoints; loaded for security, governance, and adoption reporting. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Usage and Access Logs is specific to Adobeanalytics and Tables to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reports Core reporting endpoint (POST /reports on analytics.adobe.io); returns ranked or trended report data for chosen metrics broken down by dimensions over a date range, with optional segment filters. The main dataset Stacksync reads out. Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Reports is specific to Adobeanalytics and Views to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adobeanalytics and SQL Server

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 SQL Server 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 SQL Server as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

SQL Server Adobeanalytics Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in SQL Server are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. SQL Server Native Change Data Capture (CDC).

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 SQL Server 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.
  • SQL Server: No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance resources, licensing tier, and connection limits.

How the Adobeanalytics and SQL Server 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.
