Why teams connect Google Cloud Spanner and Nimble

Treat Nimble like part of your database: its records live in Google Cloud Spanner 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 Google Cloud Spanner, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Tags, Custom fields, Contacts, Companies from Nimble into Databases, Tables, Rows, Interleaved tables in Google Cloud Spanner with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Nimble 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

  • Keep deals aligned between Nimble and an accounting system so invoicing starts when a deal closes.
  • Consolidate contacts from marketing tools into Nimble while writing Nimble edits back to avoid duplicates.
  • Push billing or entitlement changes from finance tools into Spanner tables the application reads at runtime.
  • Use change streams to feed near-real-time copies of operational tables into an analytics warehouse.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Nimble API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Nimble arrive as row changes in Google Cloud Spanner, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Nimble become tables in Google Cloud Spanner you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Spanner and Nimble

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.

Google Cloud Spanner objects Nimble objects
Change streams Capture inserts, updates, and deletes for log-style change data capture. Notes Free-text records attached to contacts, replicated for a complete account timeline
Views Read-only projections useful for shaping data before it leaves Spanner. Tags Segmentation labels that map to list membership or filters in downstream systems
Databases Top-level containers that scope schema and sync configuration. Custom fields Account-defined contact attributes that carry enrichment or internal identifiers
Tables Relational tables mapped one-to-one to sync targets. Contacts Person records with multi-value fields for email, phone, and social profiles; the primary sync entity
Rows The unit of read and write in each sync cycle, keyed by primary key. Companies Stored as contact records with a company record type, so they sync through the same contacts resource
Interleaved tables Child rows physically co-located with parents; synced as related records. Deals Pipeline records linked to contacts, synced to keep revenue systems aligned with sales activity
