Why teams connect Gatekeeper and SAP Hana

Mirror Gatekeeper's data into SAP Hana 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 Gatekeeper 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 SAP Hana.

Stacksync mirrors Users, Categories, Contracts, Vendors (Suppliers) from Gatekeeper into System-versioned temporal tables, System views (SYS schema), Column store tables, Row store tables in SAP Hana 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 Gatekeeper, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Stream workflow-form data - intake requests, vendor onboarding, risk assessments - into an operational database for cycle-time and compliance reporting.
  • 02 Write contract or vendor records into Gatekeeper when a deal closes in the CRM to kick off downstream procurement and legal workflows.
  • 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

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Gatekeeper with a query

Records from Gatekeeper are ordinary rows in SAP Hana; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Gatekeeper from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in SAP Hana and Stacksync propagates the change into Gatekeeper, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between Gatekeeper 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.

Gatekeeper objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Custom data groups Customer-configured custom fields and data groups; because the JSON:API and its docs are dynamic, any custom data added in Configuration exposes the same read/write endpoints as the standard objects and syncs the same way. 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. Custom data groups is specific to Gatekeeper and Column store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Gatekeeper user and team records governed by role-based access; read to map contract and vendor owners, approvers, and internal contacts to CRM or HR records. 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. Users is specific to Gatekeeper and Row store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Categories The classification taxonomy applied to contracts and vendors (type, department, business unit); synced so categorization stays consistent between Gatekeeper and downstream reporting or ERP dimensions. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Categories is specific to Gatekeeper and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contracts The core contract records holding value, key dates, renewal terms, status, type, owner, and the linked vendor; created, read, updated, and deleted so contract data moves two-way between Gatekeeper and a database, ERP, or CRM. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Contracts is specific to Gatekeeper and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Vendors (Suppliers) Company records for counterparties and suppliers with onboarding status, compliance, risk, contacts, and spend; read and written to keep vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Vendors (Suppliers) is specific to Gatekeeper and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Files Document files attached to contracts and vendors - executed PDFs, certificates, and compliance evidence; read to pull signed files and evidence out, or written to push generated documents in. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Files is specific to Gatekeeper and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Gatekeeper 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.

Gatekeeper SAP Hana Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gatekeeper for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log.

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

SAP Hana Gatekeeper 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 Gatekeeper through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Gatekeeper: Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.
  • 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.

How the Gatekeeper and SAP Hana connectors work

Gatekeeper

Integration surface
RESTful API following the JSON:API specification, tenant-scoped with interactive docs at {tenant}.gatekeeperhq.com/api_docs and a published Postman collection. The API is dynamic: it exposes the standard Contract and Vendor objects plus any custom data groups and workflow-form data configured in the tenant.
Authentication
API keys created and managed under Configuration > API Keys and passed as a token; each key carries granular per-endpoint permissions set to read-only or write, so access is scoped per object. Multiple keys can be issued and revoked independently.
Change detection
No native developer webhook subscription API and no database change-data-capture log; detect changes by polling the JSON:API list endpoints filtered and sorted on updated-at timestamps. Gatekeeper's own event automation - Workflow Engine phase transitions and Interconnect process orchestration - runs inside the platform rather than as a subscribable webhook stream.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Gatekeeper publishes no fixed public per-minute request quota; throughput is governed per key by its endpoint permissions, and every call is recorded (parameters, payload, response) under API Logs for monitoring. Pace bulk writes and use JSON:API pagination on list endpoints.

SAP Hana

Integration surface
SQL over the SAP HANA client (JDBC/ODBC drivers); OData/REST via XS for app-layer access
Authentication
Dedicated database user credentials over an encrypted TLS connection (password sent hashed); Kerberos, SAML, JWT, and X.509 certificate authentication are also supported. SAP HANA Cloud enforces TLS and IP allowlisting.
Change detection
Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table; system-versioned temporal tables and SLT/SDI provide trigger- and log-based CDC. No native webhooks.
Capabilities

Rate limits
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.
