Why teams connect Azure Cosmos DB and SendGrid

Mirror SendGrid's data into Azure Cosmos DB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like SendGrid through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Azure Cosmos DB.

Stacksync mirrors Senders, Single Sends, Unsubscribe Groups, Email Activity from SendGrid into Partition keys, Change feed entries, Stored procedures and triggers, Databases in Azure Cosmos DB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into SendGrid, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Reconcile transactional email activity with support tickets so agents see what a customer was sent
  • Sync CRM contacts and their custom fields into SendGrid lists so campaign targeting reflects live sales data
  • Mirror Cosmos DB items into Postgres so teams can query operational data with standard SQL.
  • Two-way sync between a Cosmos DB-backed product catalog and a PIM or commerce platform.

Automate SendGrid from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Azure Cosmos DB and Stacksync propagates the change into SendGrid, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in SendGrid arrive as row changes in Azure Cosmos DB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

What you can sync between Azure Cosmos DB and SendGrid

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.

Azure Cosmos DB objects SendGrid objects
Databases Top-level namespaces that scope containers and throughput provisioning. Contacts Marketing recipients upserted from CRM or database records, including custom field values.
Containers The unit of partitioning and throughput; each container maps to a synced collection. List Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Items (JSON documents) Schema-flexible JSON records read and written during sync; nested structures are flattened or mapped as needed. Segments Query-based contact groups whose membership SendGrid computes from contact fields.
Partition keys Determine data distribution and must be included on writes for the sync to route items correctly. Categories Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Change feed entries Ordered record of inserts and updates per partition, consumed for incremental sync. Senders Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Stored procedures and triggers Server-side logic scoped to a partition; relevant when writes must respect existing validation. Single Sends One-off marketing campaigns whose stats are read back for reporting.

Trading partners

EDI

Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions between Azure Cosmos DB and SendGrid.

How the Azure Cosmos DB and SendGrid connectors work

Azure Cosmos DB

Integration surface
REST API and SDKs over HTTPS (API for NoSQL, formerly the SQL API); also MongoDB, Cassandra, Gremlin, and Table API surfaces
Authentication
Account keys, resource tokens, or Microsoft Entra ID role-based access
Change detection
Built-in change feed exposing inserts and updates in order within each partition key range
Capabilities
read · write · CDC

SendGrid

Integration surface
REST API (v3)
Authentication
API key (create in SendGrid Settings > API Keys with Custom Access / Full Access for the objects to sync; key begins with "SG")
Change detection
Event Webhook posts delivery and engagement events (processed, delivered, open, click, bounce, spam report) to an HTTP endpoint; contact and list changes are detected by polling
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits; contact upserts are batched, asynchronous jobs rather than per-row writes
