Why teams connect Azure Synapse Analytics and Clari

Sync Clari into Azure Synapse Analytics continuously and push warehouse results back onto CRM records, one two-way connection instead of two pipelines.

The CRM feeds the warehouse and the warehouse should feed the CRM: relationship data flows one way, and computed scores, segments, and customer context flow back. Most teams build the first half as a batch pipeline and never quite get to the second.

Stacksync does both with one connection. Forecast, Quota, Opportunities, Activity (Capture) from Clari land in Azure Synapse Analytics as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Azure Synapse Analytics write back to fields in Clari. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Pull Activity (Capture) meetings and emails, mapped to their accounts and opportunities, into a database for coverage and engagement analysis.
  • 02 Write warehouse-computed health scores and usage metrics onto Clari Opportunity records as field extensions via the ingest API so deal reviews show product signals.
  • 03 Sync curated Synapse views into an operational Postgres or Azure SQL database that applications can query cheaply.
  • 04 Consolidate SaaS data alongside lake data so analysts join both through one SQL surface.

Common sync patterns

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Clari are queryable in Azure Synapse Analytics moments after they change, so dashboards stop lagging the reality they describe.

Scores and segments back on the record

Lead scores, churn risk, or usage segments computed in Azure Synapse Analytics appear as fields in Clari, where the people working accounts actually see them.

A single customer view

Join Clari's relationship data with billing, product, and support data in Azure Synapse Analytics to build the customer picture the CRM alone cannot hold.

What you can sync between Azure Synapse Analytics and Clari

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 Synapse Analytics objects Clari objects How this pairing syncs
Views Curated projections used when downstream tools should not read base tables directly. Opportunity field extensions Warehouse-computed fields pushed onto Opportunity records via the ingest API; up to 100 records per request or 10MB bulk files. Views is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Opportunity field extensions to Clari — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces that separate staging, integration, and presentation layers. Audit Events User edits and system events exported with filtering by actor, session, and date range; read-only feed for change tracking and compliance. Schemas is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Audit Events to Clari — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Precomputed aggregates that speed reads of frequently synced result sets. Forecast Exported per forecast tab and fiscal period via async jobs; includes submitted forecast calls, updates, manager adjustments, and CRM totals. Read-only. Materialized views is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Forecast to Clari — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
SQL pools Dedicated or serverless compute contexts that determine how and where queries run. Quota Quota and quota-history values exported alongside forecast data, scoped by fiscal quarter; read-only, useful for warehouse attainment reporting. SQL pools is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Quota to Clari — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables (dedicated SQL pool) Distributed warehouse tables that serve as sync destinations for analytics workloads. Opportunities Retrieved synchronously by ID from GET /opportunity (up to 100 IDs per call) with Clari CRM scoring and field-change history; read-only, mirroring the CRM opportunity Clari sits on. Tables (dedicated SQL pool) is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Opportunities to Clari — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External tables Tables over files in the data lake, queried through serverless SQL and often read-only in syncs. Activity (Capture) Meetings, emails, and attachments captured by Clari and mapped to accounts and opportunities; exported read-only via async activity jobs. External tables is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Activity (Capture) to Clari — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Synapse Analytics and Clari

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.

Azure Synapse Analytics Clari Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Azure Synapse Analytics for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on watermark columns.

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

Clari Azure Synapse Analytics Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Clari for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling — reads run as asynchronous export jobs (submit export, poll job status, download results).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Clari: Max 3 concurrent exports and roughly 1000 exports per rolling 30-day org window; ingestion capped at 100 requests/sec per API token.

How the Azure Synapse Analytics and Clari connectors work

Azure Synapse Analytics

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (TDS) with T-SQL for SQL pools; additional Spark and pipeline surfaces exist but syncs use the SQL endpoint
Authentication
SQL authentication or Microsoft Entra ID
Change detection
Polling on watermark columns; Synapse SQL pools do not expose log-based CDC for downstream consumers
Capabilities

Clari

Integration surface
REST APIs on api.clari.com - Export API (v4, asynchronous bulk jobs for forecast, quota, activity, and audit) and Ingest API (v2, field extensions); Opportunity reads are synchronous via GET /opportunity
Authentication
API token in the apikey header, generated per user in Settings; ingest/partner endpoints also require a partnerkey header, and Copilot endpoints require X-Api-Key and X-Api-Password
Change detection
Polling — reads run as asynchronous export jobs (submit export, poll job status, download results); the ingest API supports an incremental mode for regular field updates. No webhooks.
