Why teams connect Apache Kylin and Smartsheet

Get the data locked inside Smartsheet into Apache Kylin as live tables, and send results back where Smartsheet can use them, without writing a pipeline.

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

Whatever Smartsheet is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

Common use cases

  • 01 Pull Reports and Sheets into a warehouse for cross-project reporting and dashboards without manual CSV exports.
  • 02 Mirror Users and Groups from an HR system or directory so sheet sharing and workspace access stay aligned with headcount changes.
  • 03 Sync Kylin aggregates into a cloud warehouse to combine them with data Kylin does not cover.
  • 04 Trigger downstream syncs after segment build jobs complete so consumers only read refreshed data.

Common sync patterns

Analytics on Smartsheet's data

Records and events from Smartsheet land in Apache Kylin as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

Cross-tool reporting

Combine Smartsheet's data with data from every other synced system to answer questions no single tool can.

Where Smartsheet accepts updates: operational write-back

Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Apache Kylin sync back onto records in Smartsheet, putting analysis where the work happens.

What you can sync between Apache Kylin and Smartsheet

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 Kylin objects Smartsheet objects How this pairing syncs
Cubes / Indexes Pre-computed aggregate structures that answer queries at low latency. Users and Groups Account membership and sharing; synced to keep an HR or identity source aligned with sheet and workspace access. Cubes / Indexes is specific to Apache Kylin and Users and Groups to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Source Tables Hive or other upstream tables that builds read from. Sheets The core container; each sheet has typed columns, rows, and a modifiedAt stamp. Stacksync treats a sheet as a table and syncs its rows two-way. Source Tables is specific to Apache Kylin and Sheets to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Time-ranged build units that partition pre-computed data. Rows Records inside a sheet, each with createdAt/modifiedAt and cells keyed by columnId; the primary unit synced to and from external tables. Segments is specific to Apache Kylin and Rows to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Build Jobs Batch jobs that compute or refresh segments, monitored via the REST API. Columns Define sheet schema and cell type (TEXT_NUMBER, DATE, CONTACT_LIST, PICKLIST, CHECKBOX); read via the API so field mappings can be generated. Build Jobs is specific to Apache Kylin and Columns to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Projects Top-level workspaces that group models, tables, and jobs. Cells Row-by-column values; writes must match the column type and no single cell can exceed 4,000 characters. Projects is specific to Apache Kylin and Cells to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Models Star-schema definitions over source tables that determine what can be queried. Reports Read-only roll-ups spanning multiple sheets; pulled into a warehouse for cross-sheet reporting, capped at 50,000 rows. Models is specific to Apache Kylin and Reports to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Kylin and Smartsheet

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 Kylin Smartsheet Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Apache Kylin for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Data freshness follows segment build and refresh jobs, so integrations poll query results.

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

Smartsheet Apache Kylin Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartsheet notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Sheet-scoped webhooks subscribed to *.* events notify on row and cell changes.

DeliveryApache Kylin does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Apache Kylin's output flows back as field updates on the originating Smartsheet records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Kylin: No fixed API quotas; query capacity depends on the deployment and pre-computed index coverage.
  • Smartsheet: 300 requests per minute per access token; heavy calls like posting attachments cost 10x (30/min). A 429 returns errorCode 4003, back off ~60s.
