Why teams connect Gong and TimescaleDB

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

Stacksync mirrors Users, Interaction Stats (Activity), Trackers & Scorecards, CRM Objects from Gong into Schemas, Hypertables, Chunks, Continuous Aggregates in TimescaleDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Gong 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 Interaction Stats such as talk ratios and per-rep activity into a coaching database for engagement and rep-performance dashboards.
  • 02 Import externally recorded dialer or web-conference calls into Gong via POST /v2/calls so they get transcribed and analyzed like native Gong calls.
  • 03 Keep device or asset reference tables bi-directionally in sync between TimescaleDB and an ERP.
  • 04 Consolidate metrics from several services into one hypertable to serve a single reporting layer.

Common sync patterns

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

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

Query the CRM like a database

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

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to TimescaleDB sync onto the matching records in Gong, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

What you can sync between Gong 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.

Gong objects TimescaleDB objects How this pairing syncs
Interaction Stats (Activity) Aggregated talk/listen ratios, interaction stats, and day-by-day user activity retrieved via POST /v2/stats endpoints; read out for coaching and engagement reporting. Read-only. Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment. Interaction Stats (Activity) is specific to Gong and Schemas to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Trackers & Scorecards Keyword and topic tracker definitions plus coaching scorecards, including answered scorecards, read from Settings as coaching and deal-risk signals. Read-only. Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs. Trackers & Scorecards is specific to Gong and Hypertables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
CRM Objects Accounts, opportunities, stages, and users uploaded into Gong through the CRM integration API so CRM context appears alongside conversations. Write (upload) path. Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly. CRM Objects is specific to Gong and Chunks to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Library Call-library folders and folder content (curated calls and snippets) read via GET /v2/library/folders and /v2/library/folder-content. Read-only. Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems. Library is specific to Gong and Continuous Aggregates to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Data Privacy (Erasure) GDPR/CCPA deletion handled by POST /v2/data-privacy/erase-data-for-email, with data-for-email lookups on the read side; a write path used for compliance deletions. Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data. Data Privacy (Erasure) is specific to Gong and Regular PostgreSQL Tables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calls Retrieved via POST /v2/calls/extensive with participants, topics, trackers, scorecards, and media URLs, filtered by fromDateTime/toDateTime; external recordings are also imported via POST /v2/calls with media uploaded via PUT /v2/calls/{id}/media. Read and write. Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers. Calls is specific to Gong and Views to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Gong 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.

Gong TimescaleDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gong for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling POST /v2/calls/extensive on fromDateTime/toDateTime.

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

TimescaleDB Gong 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 Gong through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Gong: 3 API calls per second and 10,000 calls per day per company by default; exceeding returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header, and limits can be raised by contacting Gong.
  • TimescaleDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.

How the Gong and TimescaleDB connectors work

Gong

Integration surface
REST API on api.gong.io/v2 - retrieval endpoints (calls, transcript, users, stats, settings, library, logs) plus write endpoints for importing calls, uploading CRM data, and data-privacy erasure
Authentication
Basic authorization header combining an Access Key and Access Key Secret (created by a Gong technical admin, base64-encoded as key:secret); OAuth 2.0 Bearer tokens are supported for marketplace apps
Change detection
Polling POST /v2/calls/extensive on fromDateTime/toDateTime; the public API exposes no outbound webhooks or CDC, though a Gong admin can configure a product-side automation Rule that POSTs matching calls to a URL. Transcripts and analysis appear only after asynchronous processing.
Capabilities

Rate limits
3 API calls per second and 10,000 calls per day per company by default; exceeding returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header, and limits can be raised by contacting Gong.
