Why teams connect Amazon Redshift and Pendo

Put the same events, users, and metrics on both sides: Pendo and Amazon Redshift stay current in real time, in both directions.

Pendo is where teams explore, visualize, and report; Amazon Redshift 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.

Stacksync syncs Feature Events, Page Events, Guide Events, Poll / NPS Responses in Pendo with Tables, Views, Materialized Views, External Tables (Spectrum) in Amazon Redshift field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set. Whether the flow is warehouse tables feeding live reports or captured events and segments landing back in Amazon Redshift, every copy stays consistent.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push warehouse-computed Account attributes (plan, ARR, renewal date, health score, CSM owner) onto Pendo Accounts via the Metadata API so segments and guide targeting stay current.
  • 02 Set custom Visitor fields (role, lifecycle stage, entitlement) from the warehouse so in-app guides reach the right users without manual CSV uploads.
  • 03 Publish finance rollups computed in Redshift back to spreadsheets or operational tools.
  • 04 Feed customer 360 tables built in Redshift to support and success platforms.

Common sync patterns

Shared user and account keys

Users and accounts tracked in Pendo line up with the customer or user rows in Amazon Redshift 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 Pendo matches the Amazon Redshift table it was built from instead of drifting between refreshes.

What you can sync between Amazon Redshift and Pendo

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.

Amazon Redshift objects Pendo objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Columnar tables used as sync destinations for SaaS and database data. Page Events Page-view events for tagged pages; read-only via the Aggregation API, used for adoption and path analysis in a warehouse. Tables is specific to Amazon Redshift and Page Events to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views readable as modeled sources for reverse syncs. Guide Events Guide seen/advanced/dismissed and step events for in-app walkthroughs; read-only through the Aggregation API to measure onboarding flow adoption. Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and Guide Events to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed results that downstream syncs can read for performance. Poll / NPS Responses Survey answers and NPS scores captured in-app (pollEvents / npsEvents); read-only via the Aggregation API as voice-of-customer data. Materialized Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and Poll / NPS Responses to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External Tables (Spectrum) S3-backed tables queryable through Redshift, readable in syncs. Features / Pages / Guides (metadata) Definitions of tagged UI elements listed through the entity endpoints; read-only reference used to label and join the event streams. External Tables (Spectrum) is specific to Amazon Redshift and Features / Pages / Guides (metadata) to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures SQL procedures sometimes invoked around load steps. Visitors End-user records with agent-collected and custom fields; queried through the Aggregation API and enriched with custom fields written back via the Metadata API. Stored Procedures is specific to Amazon Redshift and Visitors to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Groups Principals used to grant a sync connection scoped access. Accounts Company/workspace records that roll visitors up to an account dimension; readable via Aggregation and a write target for custom fields (plan, ARR, health) via the Metadata API. Users and Groups is specific to Amazon Redshift and Accounts to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Redshift and Pendo

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.

Amazon Redshift Pendo Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Amazon Redshift for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or query-based diffing.

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

Pendo Amazon Redshift Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Pendo for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling - reads query the Aggregation API over event-time windows.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon Redshift: Bounded by cluster or serverless capacity and concurrency settings rather than API quotas.
  • Pendo: Pendo does not publish fixed numeric limits; it throttles heavy Aggregation queries with 429s and caps/paginates large responses, so wide exports are paced and time-windowed.

Amazon Redshift

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC (PostgreSQL-derived protocol); Redshift Data API over HTTPS
Authentication
Database credentials or IAM-based authentication
Change detection
Polling or query-based diffing; Redshift does not expose a transaction log for external CDC consumers

Pendo

Integration surface
Pendo Engage API (REST) on app.pendo.io (US) / app.eu.pendo.io (EU), base path /api/v1/ - Aggregation API for reads and the Metadata API for writes
Authentication
Integration key sent in the x-pendo-integration-key header, generated in Subscription Settings; keys are scoped read-only or read/write, so writes require a read/write key
Change detection
Polling - reads query the Aggregation API over event-time windows; no change-data-capture feed and no data-change webhooks. Writes go through the Metadata API on demand.
