Why teams connect DuckDB and Zoom

Turn the messages, calls, and events Zoom handles into live rows in DuckDB, and write back to trigger new outbound communication, with both sides in sync in seconds.

Engineers reach communications tools like Zoom through APIs, which means auth tokens, webhooks, delivery callbacks, and rate limits, all maintained forever and all shaped differently for every tool. The data those tools produce, who was contacted, what was sent, and what came back, would be simple to use if it lived in DuckDB next to everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Participant Reports, Zoom Phone Call Logs, Team Chat Channels and Messages, Users from Zoom into External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON), Attached databases, Database files, Schemas in DuckDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Communication activity lands in the database as ordinary rows you can query and join, and rows your code writes, such as a queued outbound message or an updated contact, flow back into Zoom so the tool and the database never disagree.

There is no webhook endpoint to host, no rate limit to babysit, and no nightly export that leaves your services reading yesterday's activity.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Zoom Users and Groups two-way with an HRIS or identity database so new hires get provisioned licenses and departures are deactivated automatically.
  • 02 Write Meetings and webinar Registrants from a CRM or event platform into Zoom, then read Participant Reports back onto the lead or contact record.
  • 03 Use DuckDB as a transform step: read synced Parquet exports, aggregate with SQL, and write results back to an operational database.
  • 04 Sync SaaS data to Parquet on object storage and query it with DuckDB without standing up a warehouse.

Common sync patterns

Trigger outbound communication from the database

Write a row to a synced table in DuckDB and Stacksync propagates it into Zoom, so your code sends the message, places the call, or schedules the meeting without integration glue.

One contact list across both

Recipients and contacts stay consistent between Zoom and DuckDB, so a phone number or email corrected on either side is current the next time either system uses it.

React to activity as it happens

Sends, replies, answered calls, or completed meetings arrive in DuckDB as row changes, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between DuckDB and Zoom

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.

DuckDB objects Zoom objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize tables in sync outputs. Participant Reports Past-meeting and webinar attendance from the Reports and Dashboard APIs; read-only, used to write attendance onto CRM records. Schemas is specific to DuckDB and Participant Reports to Zoom — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Columnar tables created via SQL; the destination for materialized sync data. Zoom Phone Call Logs Call detail records and recordings from Zoom Phone (requires the Phone license); read into a database to log calls against customers. Tables is specific to DuckDB and Zoom Phone Call Logs to Zoom — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views used to shape or filter data for downstream consumers. Team Chat Channels and Messages Chat channels, membership, and messages; listed and sent two-way to align collaboration spaces with team data. Views is specific to DuckDB and Team Chat Channels and Messages to Zoom — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) Files DuckDB queries in place without loading, common as a sync interchange format. Users Account members with license type, role, and status; created, updated, and deactivated two-way to sync with HRIS or identity systems. External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) is specific to DuckDB and Users to Zoom — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attached databases Additional database files or external systems attached into one session for cross-source queries. Groups User groups that carry policy and settings; membership synced from department or team data in an operational database. Attached databases is specific to DuckDB and Groups to Zoom — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Database files Single-file .duckdb databases that jobs read and write directly on disk or object storage. Meetings Scheduled and instant meetings with join URLs and settings; created and updated from a CRM or calendar, read back for reporting. Database files is specific to DuckDB and Meetings to Zoom — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between DuckDB and Zoom

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.

DuckDB Zoom Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DuckDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or full re-reads.

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

Zoom DuckDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionZoom notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks via Event Subscriptions (meeting.started/ended, participant joined/left, user.created/updated, recording.completed, and more) for real-time.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • DuckDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O.
  • Zoom: APIs are grouped into Light, Medium, Heavy, and Resource-intensive categories with per-second and daily quotas that scale by plan (e.g. Business+ Heavy APIs allow 40/second within a 60,000/day combined cap); exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429.

How the DuckDB and Zoom connectors work

DuckDB

In-process SQL engine via client libraries (Python, Node.js, JDBC, CLI); no server or network API by default
Authentication
None built in; access control is file-system level (MotherDuck adds token auth for its hosted service)
Change detection
Polling or full re-reads; no change feed or transaction log API
Capabilities

No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O

Zoom

Integration surface
REST API (v2) with webhook Event Subscriptions
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 — user-authorized OAuth or Server-to-Server OAuth using account credentials; access tokens are valid for one hour and requests use granular per-resource scopes (e.g. meeting:read, user:write)
Change detection
Webhooks via Event Subscriptions (meeting.started/ended, participant joined/left, user.created/updated, recording.completed, and more) for real-time events, with polling on list endpoints using date-range filters for backfill and objects without an event
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
APIs are grouped into Light, Medium, Heavy, and Resource-intensive categories with per-second and daily quotas that scale by plan (e.g. Business+ Heavy APIs allow 40/second within a 60,000/day combined cap); exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429.
