Why teams connect Attio and Jdbc

Treat Attio like part of your database: its records live in Jdbc as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in Jdbc, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors People, Companies, Users, Deals from Attio into Schemas & catalogs, Stored procedures & functions, Sequences, Tables in Jdbc with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Attio with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror lists and list entries into a database for pipeline reporting beyond the in-app views.
  • 02 Run a two-way dual-run when migrating to Attio from another CRM.
  • 03 Connect a niche or legacy RDBMS that has no dedicated Stacksync connector but ships a JDBC driver, using its JDBC URL to sync it two-way.
  • 04 Incrementally sync a high-volume table by polling an updated_at or auto-increment column, keeping a downstream store fresh without full reloads.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Attio API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Attio arrive as row changes in Jdbc, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Attio become tables in Jdbc you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Attio and Jdbc

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.

Attio objects Jdbc objects How this pairing syncs
Deals Pipeline records; read out for revenue reporting and written to from automation. Tables The base relational tables in the target database; synced two-way as rows over SQL, with each table's primary key driving upserts and row-level updates. Deals is specific to Attio and Tables to Jdbc — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Views Stored SELECT queries exposed like tables; read-only projections synced outbound when raw base tables should not be exposed downstream. Workspaces is specific to Attio and Views to Jdbc — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom objects Workspace-defined objects that behave like standard ones in the API. Columns Per-table fields with data types, nullability, and defaults; enumerated via DatabaseMetaData.getColumns to auto-generate and type-check field mappings. Custom objects is specific to Attio and Columns to Jdbc — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. Primary keys & indexes Key and index definitions read via DatabaseMetaData; the primary key is required for reliable upserts, and indexes on the cursor column keep incremental polling fast. People is specific to Attio and Primary keys & indexes to Jdbc — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. Schemas & catalogs Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema/catalog and lists its objects from the JDBC metadata to build the sync. Companies is specific to Attio and Schemas & catalogs to Jdbc — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Stored procedures & functions Server-side routines callable via JDBC CallableStatement; invoked for custom read or write logic when a table-level mapping is not enough. Users is specific to Attio and Stored procedures & functions to Jdbc — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Attio and Jdbc

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.

Attio Jdbc Sub-second propagation

DetectionAttio notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on record and list-entry events, with polling as a fallback.

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

Jdbc Attio Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Jdbc for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No native change feed.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Attio: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
  • Jdbc: No SaaS-style request quota. Throughput is bounded by the target database's max connections and connection-pool size, plus the CPU and I/O it shares with production queries, so heavy syncs can contend with live workloads.

Attio setup guide

Jdbc

Integration surface
JDBC API (java.sql / javax.sql) executing SQL through a JDBC driver, typically a pure-Java Type 4 driver; reaches any relational database with a driver - PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, IBM DB2, and others - via a JDBC URL such as jdbc:postgresql://host:5432/db.
Authentication
A database user's username and password supplied in the JDBC connection (DriverManager or a DataSource), typically over a TLS/SSL-encrypted connection. Some drivers add Kerberos, integrated Windows auth, or cloud IAM-token auth, but the available methods depend on the target database and its driver.
Change detection
No native change feed. Incremental sync polls a cursor column - an updated_at timestamp or an auto-incrementing key - to pull new and changed rows; detecting deletes needs soft-delete flags or database triggers writing to a shadow table. No webhooks.

Rate limits
No SaaS-style request quota. Throughput is bounded by the target database's max connections and connection-pool size, plus the CPU and I/O it shares with production queries, so heavy syncs can contend with live workloads.
