Why teams connect Aircall and TimescaleDB

Turn the messages, calls, and events Aircall handles into live rows in TimescaleDB, 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 TimescaleDB next to everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Webhooks, Contacts, Calls, Users from Aircall into Continuous Aggregates, Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas in TimescaleDB 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 Replicate subscription and billing events from operational Postgres tables into Timescale hypertables for time-series analysis.
  • 04 Keep device or asset reference tables bi-directionally in sync between TimescaleDB and an ERP.

Common sync patterns

Trigger outbound communication from the database

Write a row to a synced table in TimescaleDB and Stacksync propagates it into Aircall, so your code sends the message, places the call, or schedules the meeting without integration glue.

One contact list across both

Recipients and contacts stay consistent between Aircall and TimescaleDB, 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 TimescaleDB as row changes, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between Aircall 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.

Aircall objects TimescaleDB objects How this pairing syncs
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. Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems. Teams is specific to Aircall and Continuous Aggregates to TimescaleDB — 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. Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data. Messages (SMS/MMS) is specific to Aircall and Regular PostgreSQL Tables to TimescaleDB — 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. Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers. Webhooks is specific to Aircall and Views to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contacts Shared and personal phone-book contacts with full CRUD plus search by phone number or email; the primary two-way object synced with CRM contacts for click-to-dial. Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment. Contacts is specific to Aircall and Schemas to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calls Inbound and outbound call records with recording URL, duration, tags, comments, and metadata; the record itself is read-only, but you can add tags, comments, insight cards, transfer, archive, and control recording. Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs. Calls is specific to Aircall and Hypertables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly. Users is specific to Aircall and Chunks to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Aircall 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.

Aircall TimescaleDB 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 TimescaleDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

TimescaleDB Aircall 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 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.
  • TimescaleDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
