Why teams connect Drift and Neo4j

Treat Drift like part of your database: its records live in Neo4j as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in Neo4j, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Messages, Accounts, Users, Playbooks from Drift into Users & Roles, Nodes, Relationships, Properties in Neo4j with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Drift with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Archive historical Drift conversation and contact data into a warehouse ahead of a platform migration.
  • Sync Drift-captured contacts into the CRM so chat-sourced leads enter standard sales workflows immediately.
  • Keep a customer-360 graph continuously updated from ERP, CRM, and support sources.
  • Mirror CRM accounts and contacts into a graph to model buying-group and referral relationships.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Drift become tables in Neo4j you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Neo4j sync onto the matching records in Drift, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Drift API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Drift and Neo4j

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.

Drift objects Neo4j objects
Accounts Company records used for account-based routing and targeting. Databases Named databases in a single instance that scope multi-tenant or multi-domain syncs.
Users Agents and sales reps who own conversations and meetings. Users & Roles Security principals controlling what an integration credential can query or modify.
Playbooks Bot flows that generate conversations and qualify visitors. Nodes Entity records (customers, products, accounts) written from source systems as labeled nodes.
Meetings Meetings booked through Drift, synced to CRM as sales activities. Relationships Typed, directed edges that carry the connections syncs exist to model.
Contacts Visitor and lead records created or matched from chat identities; the main CRM-sync object. Properties Key-value attributes on both nodes and relationships, mapped from source fields.
Conversations Chat threads with status and participants; the center of Drift's data model. Labels Node type markers used to map source tables or objects onto the graph.
