Why teams connect Freshworks CRM and SAP Hana

Treat Freshworks CRM like part of your database: its records live in SAP Hana 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 SAP Hana, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Contacts, Accounts, Deals, Tasks from Freshworks CRM into Sequences, Triggers, System-versioned temporal tables, System views (SYS schema) in SAP Hana with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Freshworks CRM 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

  • 01 Sync unified contact records, covering sales and marketing attributes, into a warehouse for full-funnel reporting.
  • 02 Push scored leads from a data platform into Freshworks CRM and route them by lifecycle stage.
  • 03 Detect inserts, updates, and deletes on high-write tables via AFTER triggers or a last-modified column and replicate the deltas downstream near-real-time.
  • 04 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.

Common sync patterns

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to SAP Hana sync onto the matching records in Freshworks CRM, 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 Freshworks CRM API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Freshworks CRM arrive as row changes in SAP Hana, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between Freshworks CRM and SAP Hana

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.

Freshworks CRM objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Deals Pipeline records synced out for forecasting and full-funnel reporting. System-versioned temporal tables Column store tables with a history table tracking each row's validity period; used to reconstruct update and delete history for change capture. Deals is specific to Freshworks CRM and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tasks Follow-ups created from external signals such as product usage events. System views (SYS schema) Catalog and monitoring views such as SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS; read to discover schema and auto-generate field mappings for new tables. Tasks is specific to Freshworks CRM and System views (SYS schema) to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Appointments Meeting records readable for activity reporting. Column store tables HANA's default table type, optimized for analytics; synced two-way as rows over the SQL interface with the primary key driving upserts and delete tracking. Appointments is specific to Freshworks CRM and Column store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sales activities Logged activity types used in engagement and productivity analysis. Row store tables OLTP-oriented tables held fully in memory; read and written the same way through the SAP HANA client for high-write operational tables. Sales activities is specific to Freshworks CRM and Row store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lists Contact list membership synced against segments computed in a warehouse. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Lists is specific to Freshworks CRM and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Notes Context records attached to contacts, accounts, and deals. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Notes is specific to Freshworks CRM and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Freshworks CRM and SAP Hana

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.

Freshworks CRM SAP Hana Sub-second propagation

DetectionFreshworks CRM notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with updated-at filters.

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

SAP Hana Freshworks CRM Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in SAP Hana are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Freshworks CRM: Subject to per-account API rate limits that vary by plan.
  • SAP Hana: No SaaS-style request quota; throughput is bounded by connection limits, statement memory caps, and workload-class admission control (concurrency/memory limits) that share capacity with production queries.
