Why teams connect Campfire and MySQL

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

Connecting Campfire to MySQL gives engineers a relational, two-way copy of the books. Campfire Invoices, Bills, and Bank Transactions replicate into MySQL Tables with real Columns and keys, and updates written back to those Tables sync into Campfire.

Stacksync mirrors Credit Memo, Bank Account, Bank Transaction, Journal Entry from Campfire into Tables, Views, Columns, Primary and Unique Keys in MySQL 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 Campfire, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Query Campfire Bills and Invoices with plain SQL from existing MySQL-based tooling.
  • 02 Build internal dashboards on MySQL Views over Campfire Bank Account and Bank Transaction tables.
  • 03 Let internal apps create or correct Campfire Invoices by writing to MySQL instead of integrating the Campfire API.
  • 04 Send scheduled digest messages built from synced database queries.

Common sync patterns

Relational mirror

Campfire Invoices, Credit Memos, and Debit Memos map to MySQL Tables with Primary and Unique Keys preserving record identity.

Two-way updates

edits to Invoice rows in MySQL propagate back to the matching Campfire records.

Flexible payloads

Campfire Bank Transaction detail stores in MySQL JSON Columns alongside structured fields.

What you can sync between Campfire and MySQL

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.

Campfire objects MySQL objects How this pairing syncs
Bill Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Bill is specific to Campfire and Databases (Schemas) to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Debit Memo Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Debit Memo is specific to Campfire and Tables to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Invoice Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Invoice is specific to Campfire and Views to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Credit Memo Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Credit Memo is specific to Campfire and Columns to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Bank Account Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. Bank Account is specific to Campfire and Primary and Unique Keys to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Bank Transaction Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. Bank Transaction is specific to Campfire and JSON Columns to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Campfire and MySQL

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.

Campfire MySQL Sub-second propagation

DetectionCampfire pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Near real-time updates via change tracking (incremental sync).

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

MySQL Campfire Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MySQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing (requires log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON when.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Campfire: Limits depend on the self-hosted deployment; confirm against the instance's documentation.
  • MySQL: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources.

How it works

How to connect Campfire to MySQL — three steps, no code

Configure and sync within minutes, no code. Whether you sync 50k or 100M+ records, Stacksync handles the queues, infra, and plumbing. Integrations are non-invasive and need zero setup on your systems.

  1. 01

    Connect your apps

    Authenticate Campfire and MySQL with each platform's native method — OAuth, API keys, or service accounts — plus secure options like SSH tunneling, IP whitelisting, and VPC peering.
