Why teams connect Elasticsearch and Insightly

Treat Insightly like part of your database: its records live in Elasticsearch 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 Elasticsearch, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Contacts, Organizations, Leads, Opportunities from Insightly into Data streams, Ingest pipelines, Index templates, Indices in Elasticsearch with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Insightly 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

  • Two-way sync of Insightly contacts and organizations with a marketing automation platform
  • Replicate opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse so RevOps can report on pipeline with SQL
  • Mirror support tickets into an index used for full-text search and agent-assist tooling.
  • Feed enriched customer records into an index used for vector or hybrid search in AI applications.

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Insightly arrive as row changes in Elasticsearch, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

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

What you can sync between Elasticsearch and Insightly

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.

Elasticsearch objects Insightly objects
Index templates Reusable settings and mappings applied automatically to new indices a sync creates. Tasks Activity records keep follow-ups consistent across systems.
Indices Target containers for synced records; each holds a table-like collection of JSON documents. Events Calendar items sync for a complete activity timeline.
Documents The unit of sync; JSON records created, updated, and deleted by _id. Notes Free-text context attaches to synced records for downstream visibility.
Index mappings Field type definitions that determine how synced fields are indexed and queried. Products Product catalog entries support line-item syncing on opportunities and quotes.
Aliases Stable read/write names that let a sync cut over between index versions without downtime. Custom Fields Per-object custom fields carry enrichment and billing data written from external systems.
Data streams Append-only targets for time-series or event data pushed from source systems. Contacts Person records sync with marketing and support tools to keep one contact list.
