Why teams connect Aircall and DuckDB

Turn the messages, calls, and events Aircall handles into live rows in DuckDB, and write back to trigger new outbound communication, with both sides in sync in seconds.

Engineers reach communications tools like Aircall through APIs, which means auth tokens, webhooks, delivery callbacks, and rate limits, all maintained forever and all shaped differently for every tool. The data those tools produce, who was contacted, what was sent, and what came back, would be simple to use if it lived in DuckDB next to everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Webhooks, Contacts, Calls, Users from Aircall into Database files, Schemas, Tables, Views in DuckDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Communication activity lands in the database as ordinary rows you can query and join, and rows your code writes, such as a queued outbound message or an updated contact, flow back into Aircall so the tool and the database never disagree.

There is no webhook endpoint to host, no rate limit to babysit, and no nightly export that leaves your services reading yesterday's activity.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Tags and call dispositions onto matching CRM records as call outcomes so RevOps can report on conversation activity.
  • 02 Log every Call with its recording URL, tags, comments, and metadata into Postgres or a warehouse for talk-time and call-outcome reporting beside CRM pipeline data.
  • 03 Sync SaaS data to Parquet on object storage and query it with DuckDB without standing up a warehouse.
  • 04 Push aggregates computed in DuckDB out to a CRM or business tools so analysis results reach operational systems.

Common sync patterns

One contact list across both

Recipients and contacts stay consistent between Aircall and DuckDB, so a phone number or email corrected on either side is current the next time either system uses it.

React to activity as it happens

Sends, replies, answered calls, or completed meetings arrive in DuckDB as row changes, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for every channel

Each communications tool looks like tables in the database, so adding email, voice, or messaging is configuration rather than a new codebase.

What you can sync between Aircall and DuckDB

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.

Aircall objects DuckDB objects How this pairing syncs
Users Agent seats with name, email, and availability; full CRUD to provision or deprovision seats and map Aircall agents to CRM, HR, or directory identities. Attached databases Additional database files or external systems attached into one session for cross-source queries. Users is specific to Aircall and Attached databases to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Numbers Provisioned phone numbers with settings, open hours, and IVR config; read and update to keep routing and business-hours data aligned across systems. Database files Single-file .duckdb databases that jobs read and write directly on disk or object storage. Numbers is specific to Aircall and Database files to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tags Call tags with name and color; full CRUD, applied to calls for disposition and outcome reporting in the CRM or warehouse. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize tables in sync outputs. Tags is specific to Aircall and Schemas to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Groups of users for routing and reporting; create and delete teams and add or remove members to mirror org structure from an HR system or IdP. Tables Columnar tables created via SQL; the destination for materialized sync data. Teams is specific to Aircall and Tables to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Messages (SMS/MMS) Text messages tied to a number and contact; send outbound SMS/MMS through the API and read inbound messages delivered via webhook events. Views SQL views used to shape or filter data for downstream consumers. Messages (SMS/MMS) is specific to Aircall and Views to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Webhooks Event subscriptions for call, contact, user, message, and number events; full CRUD, the mechanism for near-real-time change delivery to Stacksync. External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) Files DuckDB queries in place without loading, common as a sync interchange format. Webhooks is specific to Aircall and External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) to DuckDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Aircall and DuckDB

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.

Aircall DuckDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionAircall notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (POST /v1/webhooks) for call, contact, user, message, and number events.

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

DuckDB Aircall Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DuckDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or full re-reads.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Aircall: 60 requests per minute per company by default (120/min for Advanced Messaging customers); responses carry X-AircallApi-Limit, X-AircallApi-Remaining, and X-AircallApi-Reset headers.
  • DuckDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O.
