Why teams connect Egnyte and Postgres Heroku
Keep Postgres Heroku and Egnyte in step: a row in Postgres Heroku for every file in Egnyte, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.
A database holds structured records; a storage system holds the files those records depend on, such as contracts, images, exports, uploads, and documents. The two describe the same things from opposite sides: a row in Postgres Heroku says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Egnyte holds the bytes. Linked only by a hand-kept path or a one-off script, the two drift the moment a file is renamed, moved, or deleted and the record still points at where it used to be.
Stacksync syncs Tables, Views, Materialized Views, Schemas in Postgres Heroku with Users, Groups, Permissions, Links in Egnyte bi-directionally and in real time. File attributes, including name, path or object key, size, type, modified time, owner, and tags or custom properties, map field by field to columns on the matching row, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds. New files appear as rows, metadata edits travel in the direction you choose, and deletes stay consistent, with conflict rules you set in place of nightly reconciliation scripts.
Common use cases
- 01 Expose CRM objects as Postgres tables the Heroku application can query and join directly
- 02 Sync Heroku Postgres into a warehouse for reporting without running ETL dynos
- 03 Stream Egnyte audit Events (file, login, permission, and Link changes) into a warehouse or SIEM for compliance and governance reporting.
- 04 Provision and deprovision Egnyte Users and Groups from an HRIS or IdP so folder access follows employee onboarding and offboarding.
Common sync patterns
File metadata kept in step
Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Postgres Heroku write back to the matching file's metadata in Egnyte, and metadata changed in Egnyte updates the row, so the two never disagree about a file.
Records that point at documents
Where a record in Postgres Heroku references a file in Egnyte, such as a contract, an image, an export, or an upload, the reference, path, and status stay consistent as files are renamed, moved, or replaced, so stored links keep resolving.
A landing zone for incoming files
Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Egnyte become rows in Postgres Heroku as they land, so a database-driven process can pick them up without polling the storage system's API.
What you can sync between Egnyte and Postgres Heroku
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.
| Egnyte objects | Postgres Heroku objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. | Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs. | Permissions is specific to Egnyte and Sequences to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. | Follower Databases Heroku-managed read replicas usable as low-impact sync sources. | Links is specific to Egnyte and Follower Databases to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. | Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target for app data. | Metadata is specific to Egnyte and Tables to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. | Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. | Events and Audit reports is specific to Egnyte and Views to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. | Materialized Views Precomputed result sets synced outward on refresh. | Files is specific to Egnyte and Materialized Views to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. | Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes. | Folders is specific to Egnyte and Schemas to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Egnyte and Postgres Heroku
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.
Egnyte Postgres Heroku Sub-second propagation
DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.
DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Postgres Heroku as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
Postgres Heroku Egnyte Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Postgres Heroku for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Trigger-based capture or polling in most configurations.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Egnyte through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
- Postgres Heroku: No API rate limits; connection counts and performance are bounded by the Heroku Postgres plan.

FAQ
Egnyte and Postgres Heroku integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Egnyte and Postgres Heroku: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Egnyte's Permissions and Links), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Common patterns for Egnyte and Postgres Heroku: File metadata kept in step; Records that point at documents; A landing zone for incoming files. Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Postgres Heroku write back to the matching file's metadata in Egnyte, and metadata changed in Egnyte updates the row, so the two never disagree about a file.
-
Egnyte: REST Public API (pubapi/v1) with File System, Users, Groups, Permissions, Links, Metadata, Events, and Webhooks endpoints. Authentication: OAuth 2.0 scoped access tokens (Authorization Code or Implicit for partner apps, Resource Owner Password for internal apps, Refresh Token flow); token sent in the Authorization header. Postgres Heroku: SQL wire protocol (standard PostgreSQL). Authentication: Database credentials from the Heroku DATABASE_URL config var; SSL required. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Postgres Heroku: All connections require SSL, and server-level settings such as replication configuration are controlled by Heroku rather than the user. Egnyte: File content operations use a separate fs-content endpoint (upload/download) from the fs metadata endpoint, and large files use chunked upload. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Egnyte and Postgres Heroku without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Egnyte and Postgres Heroku records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Egnyte and Postgres Heroku connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Egnyte–Postgres Heroku integration in-house.
