Why teams connect Apache Doris and Navan

Land the financial records from Navan in Apache Doris continuously, and write results back, without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Finance data belongs in the warehouse: revenue, invoices, payments, and customers joined with everything else the business measures. Getting it there usually means an extraction pipeline that breaks quietly and delivers yesterday's numbers.

Stacksync syncs Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments, Users, Card Transactions, Connect Transactions from Navan into tables in Apache Doris in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in Apache Doris can be written back to fields in Navan where you want them operational. Schema changes are handled, API limits are managed, and the sync is something you configure rather than code you maintain.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Users and department mappings from an HRIS into reporting tables so every transaction is attributed to a cost center and manager.
  • 02 Sync Card Transactions and Manual Transactions into Postgres or a warehouse so finance analyzes corporate spend in SQL without manual CSV exports.
  • 03 Continuously upsert changing records into Unique Key tables so analytics reflect current state rather than append-only history.
  • 04 Read aggregates from Doris and sync them into business tools like CRMs or spreadsheets.

Common sync patterns

Queryable history for audit and reconciliation

A continuously synced copy in Apache Doris gives you a durable, queryable record of financial data for month-end and audit questions.

Finance analytics without ETL

Invoices, payments, and customer records from Navan arrive in Apache Doris as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind.

Revenue joined with everything else

Analysts combine Navan's financial records with product, marketing, or operational data already in Apache Doris for reporting the finance system cannot do alone.

What you can sync between Apache Doris and Navan

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.

Apache Doris objects Navan objects How this pairing syncs
Aggregate Key Tables Tables that pre-aggregate on load, used for metric rollups. Manual Transactions Out-of-pocket reimbursements and payroll submissions; synced for approval and reimbursement, then GL-coded back into Navan. Aggregate Key Tables is specific to Apache Doris and Manual Transactions to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Range or list partitions that bound incremental loads. Bookings Flight, hotel, rail, and car reservations from the Booking API; pulled read-only by createdFrom/createdTo date range for trip and travel-spend reporting. Partitions is specific to Apache Doris and Bookings to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed views readable for downstream syncs and BI. Custom Fields Company metadata such as cost centers and project codes; discovered via GET and their option lists created or updated via async POST. Materialized Views is specific to Apache Doris and Custom Fields to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Roles Principals used to grant the sync connection scoped access. Receipts Receipt images tied to each transaction; fetched read-only through presigned URLs for archival in a warehouse or document store. Users and Roles is specific to Apache Doris and Receipts to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical containers that scope connections and grants. Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments Money-movement records including repayments, FX and platform fees, and credit or debit memos; read-only for reconciliation ledgers. Databases is specific to Apache Doris and Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Columnar tables in one of Doris's table models, used as sync destinations. Users Employee and cardholder records referenced by every transaction; usually provisioned from an HRIS and used to map spend to people and departments. Tables is specific to Apache Doris and Users to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Doris and Navan

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.

Apache Doris Navan Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Apache Doris for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on partition or timestamp columns for reads.

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

Navan Apache Doris Sub-second propagation

DetectionNavan notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Navan's Expense API supports webhooks for transaction and expense events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Doris: No API quotas; load throughput depends on cluster resources and load-job configuration.
  • Navan: Requests are throttled with HTTP 429 and Navan recommends retrying with exponential backoff; the Expense/Public API must first be enabled per account by Navan.

How the Apache Doris and Navan connectors work

Apache Doris

Integration surface
MySQL wire protocol for SQL access; HTTP APIs (such as Stream Load) for bulk ingestion
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Polling on partition or timestamp columns for reads; ingestion into Doris is push-based via load jobs
Capabilities

Rate limits
No API quotas; load throughput depends on cluster resources and load-job configuration

Navan

Integration surface
REST (Expense API and Booking API)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client-credentials flow; an admin creates a client_id and client_secret under Settings > Integrations and exchanges them at Navan's OAuth token endpoint for a short-lived bearer token that is refreshed on expiry (separate US and EU regional hosts)
Change detection
Navan's Expense API supports webhooks for transaction and expense events; sync engines also poll GET endpoints with date-range and updatedAt filters (createdFrom/createdTo for bookings) to backfill history and reconcile. There is no database-level CDC.
Capabilities

Rate limits
Requests are throttled with HTTP 429 and Navan recommends retrying with exponential backoff; the Expense/Public API must first be enabled per account by Navan.
