Why teams connect Gainsight and TimescaleDB
Mirror Gainsight's data into TimescaleDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.
Engineers integrate with tools like Gainsight through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in TimescaleDB.
Stacksync mirrors Custom Objects, Company, Person (People), Relationship from Gainsight into Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas, Hypertables in TimescaleDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Gainsight, so the tool and the database never disagree.
Common use cases
- 01 Read Timeline Activities and Success Plan objectives into a reporting database for churn, QBR, and CSM-productivity dashboards.
- 02 Keep Relationship records aligned with a billing system or ERP so multi-product customers map to the correct contracts and invoices.
- 03 Consolidate metrics from several services into one hypertable to serve a single reporting layer.
- 04 Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
Common sync patterns
Read Gainsight with a query
Records from Gainsight are ordinary rows in TimescaleDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.
Automate Gainsight from your codebase
Write to the synced tables in TimescaleDB and Stacksync propagates the change into Gainsight, replacing custom integration code.
React to changes as they happen
Updates in Gainsight arrive as row changes in TimescaleDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.
What you can sync between Gainsight and TimescaleDB
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.
| Gainsight objects | TimescaleDB objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Custom Objects Org-specific MDA tables with the __gc suffix; discoverable via the Describe API so field mappings can be generated automatically. | Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers. | Custom Objects is specific to Gainsight and Views to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Company Customer/account master in Gainsight CS; two-way synced with CRM and warehouse customer tables to keep ARR, owner, and renewal fields aligned. | Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment. | Company is specific to Gainsight and Schemas to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Person (People) Contacts associated to companies through the Company Person junction; synced two-way with CRM contacts and warehouse person records. | Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs. | Person (People) is specific to Gainsight and Hypertables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Relationship Sub-units within a company for multi-product or multi-team accounts; synced so each maps to the right contract in billing or an ERP. | Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly. | Relationship is specific to Gainsight and Chunks to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| CTA (Call to Action) Risk and expansion alerts that drive CSM plays; often synced to ticketing or project tools so follow-up work is tracked where teams operate. | Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems. | CTA (Call to Action) is specific to Gainsight and Continuous Aggregates to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Scorecard Fact Health scores and measures per Company or Relationship; usage metrics from a warehouse are written in so scores reflect live telemetry. | Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data. | Scorecard Fact is specific to Gainsight and Regular PostgreSQL Tables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Gainsight and TimescaleDB
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.
Gainsight TimescaleDB Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Gainsight for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object.
DeliveryEach detected change is applied to TimescaleDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
TimescaleDB Gainsight Sub-second propagation
DetectionChanges in TimescaleDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Gainsight through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Gainsight: Synchronous APIs are capped near 100 calls/min and 50,000/day; the asynchronous Bulk API allows 10 calls/hour and 100/day. Both are fixed-window limits, and the applicable per-hour and per-day limits are returned in the x-ratelimit-limit response header.
- TimescaleDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.

FAQ
Gainsight and TimescaleDB integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Gainsight and TimescaleDB: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Gainsight's Custom Objects and Company), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Change detection on Gainsight: Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object; Rules Engine Real-Time Rules can optionally push specific object events (e.g., a Company stage change) to an external endpoint. On TimescaleDB: Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must be remapped to the parent — or timestamp-based polling on time columns; regular Postgres tables replicate through standard logical replication. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Gainsight side: Custom Objects, Company, Person (People), Relationship, plus custom fields where Gainsight exposes them. On the TimescaleDB side: Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas, Hypertables. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Gainsight and TimescaleDB: Read Gainsight with a query; Automate Gainsight from your codebase; React to changes as they happen. Records from Gainsight are ordinary rows in TimescaleDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.
