Why teams connect GitHub and Reltio

Mirror GitHub's data into Reltio 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 GitHub 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 Reltio.

Stacksync mirrors Organizations and Teams, Users, Labels and Milestones, Repositories from GitHub into Matches (Potential Matches), Activity Log, Data Change Requests (DCR), Reference Data (RDM) in Reltio 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 GitHub, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync organization and team membership with an identity or HR system to automate access reviews and offboarding.
  • 02 Create GitHub issues automatically from records written elsewhere, such as bug reports logged in a CRM case object.
  • 03 Sync Relations (affiliations, hierarchies, households) between Reltio and a CRM or graph so account and affiliation structures stay aligned.
  • 04 Feed Interactions (transactions, visits, events) into Reltio to enrich entity profiles, then read them back for 360-degree reporting.

Common sync patterns

React to changes as they happen

Updates in GitHub arrive as row changes in Reltio, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

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 GitHub with a query

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

What you can sync between GitHub and Reltio

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.

GitHub objects Reltio objects How this pairing syncs
Releases Tagged versions synced into changelogs, CRMs, or customer-notification systems. Relations Typed relationships between two entities (affiliations, hierarchies, employment, households); read and written via /relations to keep account hierarchies and affiliation graphs aligned across systems. Releases is specific to GitHub and Relations to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflow runs (Actions) CI results synced into incident and reporting systems. Crosswalks Per-entity references to the source systems and their record IDs; written when loading records so Reltio ties each source contribution to a golden record, and read to trace lineage back to origin systems. Workflow runs (Actions) is specific to GitHub and Crosswalks to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations and Teams Membership data synced with identity systems and HR directories for access reviews. Interactions Transactional or event records linked to entities (purchases, visits, activities); read and written via /interactions to enrich profiles and power 360-degree reporting. Organizations and Teams is specific to GitHub and Interactions to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Author and assignee identities matched to internal directories. Matches (Potential Matches) Candidate duplicate pairs produced by match rules; read to review, and resolved with merge, unmerge, or not-a-match actions to control survivorship. Users is specific to GitHub and Matches (Potential Matches) to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Labels and Milestones Classification fields mapped to statuses and sprints in external trackers. Activity Log Immutable audit trail of changes to entities and relations via /activities; read-only, used for history, lineage, and compliance reporting. Labels and Milestones is specific to GitHub and Activity Log to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Repositories Top-level containers whose metadata and settings syncs read to scope other objects. Data Change Requests (DCR) Stewardship change proposals routed through approval workflows; read and written to feed or track governed edits to golden records. Repositories is specific to GitHub and Data Change Requests (DCR) to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between GitHub and Reltio

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.

GitHub Reltio Sub-second propagation

DetectionGitHub notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks with a broad event catalog covering issues, pull requests, pushes, and releases.

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

Reltio GitHub Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Reltio for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling the REST API on updateTime (epoch-ms), for example filter=gt(updateTime,<timestamp>), for entities and relations changed past a stored.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • GitHub: Authenticated REST requests are limited to 5,000 per hour per user; GitHub Apps scale limits per installation.
  • Reltio: Reltio applies per-tenant API throttling and returns HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) when limits are exceeded; there is no single fixed request-per-second cap published for all tenants, and throttling is tuned per tenant and environment. Large loads and reads use bulk create/update and the asynchronous export/jobs API rather than row-by-row calls.

Reltio

Integration surface
Reltio REST API (Data API) — /entities, /relations, /interactions, /activities, plus Match, RDM (reference data), and Data Change Request endpoints; base URL https://{environment}.reltio.com/reltio/api/{tenantId}
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens obtained from Reltio's central auth server (POST https://auth.reltio.com/oauth/token, client-credentials or password grant, application/x-www-form-urlencoded) and sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>; access tokens expire after about 60 minutes and are renewed with a refresh token, and are scoped per API (entities_api, relations_api, interactions_api, configuration_api, graphs_api)
Change detection
Polling the REST API on updateTime (epoch-ms), for example filter=gt(updateTime,<timestamp>), for entities and relations changed past a stored watermark. Reltio has no CDC log external tools consume; separately, Reltio's event streaming can publish entity change events (created, changed, removed) to a customer-configured message queue (Amazon SQS/SNS, Google Pub/Sub, Azure Service Bus, or Kafka), which is a queue feed rather than HTTP webhooks.
