Why teams connect Demandbase and Materialize

Put modeled data to work and measure what it drives: Materialize and Demandbase keep contacts, audiences, and campaign results in step in real time, in both directions.

Materialize is where your team models customers, product usage, and revenue into trusted tables; Demandbase runs the campaigns, audiences, and messages that reach those people. The two overlap wherever the same person, account, or segment matters to both, and when the bridge between them is a nightly export or a hand-built list, marketing targets stale data while analytics never sees what the campaign returned.

Stacksync syncs Clusters, Connections & Secrets, Schemas & Databases, Tables in Materialize with Opportunities, People (Persons), Activities, Campaigns in Demandbase field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — a computed score or segment can flow out to Demandbase while sends, opens, and conversions flow back to Materialize — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read computed view results back into a CRM or application database as derived fields.
  • 02 Drive alerting and operational tooling from SUBSCRIBE change streams instead of scheduled queries.
  • 03 Subscribe to Demandbase company and person change webhooks - firmographic updates, M&A, and leadership or employment changes - and land them in an operational store for real-time account alerts.
  • 04 Push warehouse-computed account scores, custom fields, and audiences into Demandbase via the Data Import API so ABM campaigns and sales plays target the segments the warehouse defines.

Common sync patterns

Activate a modeled audience

A segment or score built in Materialize — high-intent accounts, churn risk, a lifetime-value tier — lands as an audience or contact field in Demandbase, so campaigns target the people your data actually points to instead of a static export.

Keep the contact and audience list current

New and updated contacts, leads, or audience members flow between Materialize and Demandbase, so the marketing audience reflects the people in your warehouse and corrections propagate instead of the two sides drifting apart.

Suppression and consent stay aligned

Unsubscribes, bounces, and consent or opt-out flags held in either system propagate to the other, so no one is messaged after opting out and Materialize holds the current state for auditing.

What you can sync between Demandbase and Materialize

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.

Demandbase objects Materialize objects How this pairing syncs
People (Persons) Contact/person records with verified business email, title, seniority, and quality grades; fetched and matched via the B2B Contact endpoints and exported or imported. Clusters Compute pools that isolate ingestion, view maintenance, and serving. People (Persons) is specific to Demandbase and Clusters to Materialize — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activities Engagement and custom activity records (web, campaign, intent); exported via Data Export and pushed in through the Data Import API using custom activity types. Connections & Secrets Stored credentials and endpoints used by sources and sinks. Activities is specific to Demandbase and Connections & Secrets to Materialize — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Campaigns Marketing campaign records and creative assets exported through the Data Export API; read-only reporting feed. Schemas & Databases Namespaces that organize objects a sync targets. Campaigns is specific to Demandbase and Schemas & Databases to Materialize — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Account & Person Lists (Audiences) Named account and person segments exported via Data Export; custom audiences pushed into Demandbase through the Data Import API. Read and write. Tables User-managed tables that accept INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from sync pipelines. Account & Person Lists (Audiences) is specific to Demandbase and Tables to Materialize — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Details (B2B enrichment) Firmographics, technographics, competitors, and corporate family tree fetched by domain or name via the B2B Company Search and Details endpoints; read-only enrichment. Sources Ingestion points (Kafka, Postgres CDC, MySQL CDC, webhook) that feed external data into Materialize. Company Details (B2B enrichment) is specific to Demandbase and Sources to Materialize — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Change Subscriptions Company firmographic, company news, family-tree (ownership), and DB person employment subscriptions delivered as webhook alerts with a signing secret; the real-time change feed. Materialized Views Incrementally maintained query results that syncs read as continuously up-to-date datasets. Change Subscriptions is specific to Demandbase and Materialized Views to Materialize — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Demandbase and Materialize

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.

Demandbase Materialize Sub-second propagation

DetectionDemandbase notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Subscription API webhooks - company firmographic, company news, family-tree (ownership), and person employment-change alerts to a configurable URL.

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

Materialize Demandbase Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Materialize are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. SUBSCRIBE queries stream row-level changes of any view or table to the client.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Demandbase: Credit-based per API call; bulk jobs accept up to 10,000 records per submission, CSV uploads up to 5GB, and result URLs stay valid 24 hours; subscription alerts page up to 5,000 entities and list endpoints up to 100 per page.

How the Demandbase and Materialize connectors work

Demandbase

Integration surface
REST APIs (Demandbase One) - a B2B API (company/contact search, details, and match with async bulk enrichment jobs), a read-only Data Export API and a write-capable Data Import API (both async bulk jobs), and a Subscription API for webhook change alerts.
Authentication
JWT bearer tokens minted from Demandbase One API Key Sets at the platform level; each credential set expires after 8 hours and is rotated. Legacy single-user API tokens are deprecated.
Change detection
Subscription API webhooks - company firmographic, company news, family-tree (ownership), and person employment-change alerts to a configurable URL secured with a signing secret; bulk reads run as async export jobs (submit, poll, download). No log-based CDC.
