Why teams connect AWS S3 and Ramp

Land the financial records from Ramp in AWS S3 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 Funds (Spend Controls), General Ledger Accounts, Transactions, Cards from Ramp into tables in AWS S3 in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in AWS S3 can be written back to fields in Ramp 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 Read Reimbursements into a finance database for cross-entity expense reporting and reconciliation without manual CSV exports.
  • 02 Two-way sync Transactions and their accounting codings with a Postgres warehouse so finance analyzes spend in SQL and pushes GL categories and memos back to Ramp.
  • 03 Stage bulk loads for warehouses that ingest from object storage.
  • 04 Archive change history from ongoing syncs as timestamped files for audit and replay.

Common sync patterns

Write-back of computed fields

Scores or segments computed in AWS S3, like payment-risk flags or customer tiers, sync back onto records in Ramp where the finance team can act on them.

Queryable history for audit and reconciliation

A continuously synced copy in AWS S3 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 Ramp arrive in AWS S3 as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind.

What you can sync between AWS S3 and Ramp

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.

AWS S3 objects Ramp objects How this pairing syncs
Object Metadata System and user-defined metadata read alongside object contents. Users Employee and cardholder records; invited, updated, and deactivated, commonly synced from an HRIS or identity provider. Object Metadata is specific to AWS S3 and Users to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object Versions Prior copies retained when versioning is enabled, relevant for reprocessing. Departments Org groupings for cost-center and GL allocation; pushed from an ERP/HRIS and referenced by cards and transactions. Object Versions is specific to AWS S3 and Departments to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Event Notifications Notifications on object creation or deletion that trigger incremental processing. Reimbursements Out-of-pocket expense claims; read for reporting and marked ready-to-sync then synced to the ERP. Event Notifications is specific to AWS S3 and Reimbursements to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Access Points Scoped network endpoints used to grant a sync narrow access to a bucket. Bills Accounts-payable bills; created, updated, approved, and paid, then posted ready-to-sync and synced to accounting. Access Points is specific to AWS S3 and Bills to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Multipart Uploads The mechanism used to write large export files reliably. Vendors Supplier records under the accounting namespace; uploaded and updated for AP matching and payments. Multipart Uploads is specific to AWS S3 and Vendors to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets Top-level containers a sync targets; region and policy are set at this level. Funds (Spend Controls) Spend controls governing card usage; read and created via the funds API to enforce budgets per user, department, or program. Buckets is specific to AWS S3 and Funds (Spend Controls) to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between AWS S3 and Ramp

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.

AWS S3 Ramp Sub-second propagation

DetectionAWS S3 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. S3 Event Notifications on object create/delete delivered to SQS, SNS, Lambda, or EventBridge.

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

Ramp AWS S3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionRamp notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Signed webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 X-Ramp-Signature) for bill, transaction, reimbursement, vendor, and user events.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to AWS S3 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • AWS S3: Request throughput scales per prefix; sustained high-volume workloads should spread keys across prefixes.
  • Ramp: 200 requests per 10-second rolling window per source IP; exceeding it returns 429 Too Many Requests, and requests running over 60 seconds return 504. Results use keyset pagination (follow the page.next URL / start cursor); higher limits can be requested from support.

Ramp

Integration surface
REST API (Developer API v1)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0: exchange client_id/client_secret (HTTP Basic) at api.ramp.com/developer/v1/token for scoped bearer tokens; client_credentials grant for server-to-server and authorization_code for user-delegated access; scopes follow resource:permission (e.g. transactions:read, bills:write, accounting:write).
Change detection
Signed webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 X-Ramp-Signature) for bill, transaction, reimbursement, vendor, and user events; otherwise poll incrementally (synced_after on transactions, from_created_at on bills) with keyset pagination, or read the audit-logs/events feed.
