Why teams connect Autopilot and YugabyteDB

Sync the records in YugabyteDB into Autopilot and land its embeddings, classifications, and generated fields back on the same rows, in real time and without a pipeline to maintain.

AI systems do not hold customers or invoices the way business apps do. What they hold is derived from your data: the vectors and metadata in a vector store, or the classifications, extracted fields, and generated text a model produces over records it was given. YugabyteDB is where those source records actually live. The bridge between the two is the row itself, since an item in Autopilot and the record in YugabyteDB it describes are two halves of the same thing, and they drift the moment one is updated without the other.

Stacksync syncs Indexes, Materialized Views, Schemas, Sequences in YugabyteDB with Activities, Contacts, Lists, Custom Fields in Autopilot in real time. Rows created or changed in YugabyteDB flow into Autopilot so inference and embedding run on current data, and the scores, labels, and generated fields Autopilot produces flow back onto the matching rows in YugabyteDB, mapped field by field. A change on either side appears on the other within seconds, with no extraction job or webhook plumbing to keep alive.

Because matching is by a stable identifier, every row in YugabyteDB stays tied to its AI-side counterpart in Autopilot. Retrieval, enrichment, and generated content always resolve back to the record they came from, so there are no orphaned vectors and no labels describing a version of a row that no longer exists.

Common use cases

  • 01 Add contacts to a Journey from a database event or CRM stage change to start automated onboarding or nurture sequences.
  • 02 Mirror List and Smart Segment membership into a warehouse to power attribution and audience analytics alongside other sources.
  • 03 Run log-based CDC from YugabyteDB tables into a warehouse for analytics without batch dumps.
  • 04 Two-way sync between YugabyteDB application tables and a CRM so product data and account records stay consistent.

Common sync patterns

Keep derived data fresh as sources change

When a row in YugabyteDB is updated or removed, its counterpart in Autopilot is updated or removed too, so nothing in Autopilot describes a record that has since changed or gone.

Backfill once, then stay in step

Load your existing rows from YugabyteDB into Autopilot to build the index or enrichment set, then let ongoing changes sync automatically instead of re-running the whole job.

One record, one identifier

Each item in Autopilot carries the key of the row in YugabyteDB it came from, so results resolve back to the exact record with nothing orphaned or duplicated.

What you can sync between Autopilot and YugabyteDB

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.

Autopilot objects YugabyteDB objects How this pairing syncs
Lists Static contact lists; membership is readable per list and writable by adding or removing contacts. Sequences ID generation objects relevant when syncing writes into YSQL tables. Lists is specific to Autopilot and Sequences to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields User-defined contact properties (string, number, date, boolean); discovered so field keys map cleanly to destination columns. CDC Streams Change streams over the storage-layer WAL consumed through logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors. Custom Fields is specific to Autopilot and CDC Streams to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Smart Segments Rule-based dynamic audiences; membership is computed by Autopilot, so it is read-only over the API. Databases and Keyspaces Top-level containers for the YSQL (Postgres-style) and YCQL (Cassandra-style) APIs respectively. Smart Segments is specific to Autopilot and Databases and Keyspaces to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Journeys (Triggers) Automation journeys; a contact can be added to a journey via its trigger endpoint to start automated email or SMS sequences. Tables Distributed SQL tables split into tablets; the primary read and write targets. Journeys (Triggers) is specific to Autopilot and Tables to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activities Per-contact activity and event history (opens, clicks, journey steps); read-only feed used for engagement reporting. Indexes Global secondary indexes maintained transactionally alongside table writes. Activities is specific to Autopilot and Indexes to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contacts Core people records (email, name, custom fields, list and segment membership); upserted two-way as the primary sync object. Materialized Views Precomputed query results available in YSQL for read-side shaping. Contacts is specific to Autopilot and Materialized Views to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Autopilot and YugabyteDB

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.

Autopilot YugabyteDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Autopilot for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC.

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

YugabyteDB Autopilot Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in YugabyteDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Native CDC from the write-ahead log via PostgreSQL logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Autopilot: The REST API is capped at 100 requests/minute per account; exceeding it returns HTTP 429. Enterprise plans can request a higher limit. Contact writes accept an array for bulk upsert, and list and segment reads paginate via a bookmark cursor.
  • YugabyteDB: No API rate limits; throughput scales with cluster nodes and tablet distribution.

How the Autopilot and YugabyteDB connectors work

Autopilot

Integration surface
REST API (Autopilot v1); Autopilot rebranded to Ortto in 2021 and the newer Ortto API co-exists with the legacy Autopilot endpoints
Authentication
Per-account API key sent in the autopilotapikey request header (generated in account settings); requests use Content-Type application/json against https://api2.autopilothq.com/v1/
Change detection
No CDC; incremental sync polls the /contacts endpoint with bookmark cursor pagination and updated timestamps. Journey webhook actions can push specific contact events, but there is no general change-subscription webhook, so polling is the reliable path.

Rate limits
