Why teams connect Google Pubsub and Klaviyo

Connect the tickets, records, and events in Klaviyo to the systems engineering runs in Google Pubsub, kept current in real time and in both directions.

Klaviyo is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. Google Pubsub is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.

Stacksync syncs Segments, Events, Metrics, Campaigns in Klaviyo with Subscriptions, Messages, Schemas, Snapshots in Google Pubsub field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push offline, ERP, or subscription order events into Klaviyo as metrics to trigger post-purchase and win-back flows
  • 02 Mirror campaign and flow engagement events into a warehouse for revenue attribution alongside order data
  • 03 Bridge order or billing events off a topic into an ERP or ticketing system as they arrive, mapping message attributes to target fields.
  • 04 Attach an Avro or Protocol Buffer schema to a topic so every message Stacksync publishes is validated against an agreed contract.

Common sync patterns

Where Google Pubsub tracks engineering work: requests become issues

A ticket or request raised in Klaviyo opens or updates a matching issue in Google Pubsub, and status, comments, and resolution flow back, so support and engineering work the same item instead of retyping it.

Where Google Pubsub moves messages between services: activity lands on the stream

Records created or changed in Klaviyo publish to the queue or topic in Google Pubsub as they happen, so downstream services react to real events rather than polling for them.

Where Google Pubsub is the directory or identity source: one set of users

People and accounts in Klaviyo stay matched to the users in Google Pubsub, so access, provisioning, and org changes propagate instead of being keyed in twice.

What you can sync between Google Pubsub and Klaviyo

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 Pubsub objects Klaviyo objects How this pairing syncs
Snapshots Captured subscription state for seek/replay; lets already-acknowledged messages be redelivered from a point in time. Profiles Person records with arbitrary custom properties are the target for CRM and warehouse-sourced attributes. Snapshots is specific to Google Pubsub and Profiles to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Message attributes Up to 100 key-value pairs per message; carry routing metadata and drive subscription filter expressions. Lists Static audience memberships sync in from CRMs and forms for targeting. Message attributes is specific to Google Pubsub and Lists to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dead-letter topics Destination for messages that exceed a subscription's max delivery attempts; isolates poison messages for later handling. Segments Dynamic audiences are readable so other tools can mirror who qualifies. Dead-letter topics is specific to Google Pubsub and Segments to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Ordering keys Tag messages so those sharing a key deliver in publish order when message ordering is enabled; throughput capped at 1 MBps per key. Events Timestamped behavioral records tied to metrics; external order and product events are pushed in to trigger flows. Ordering keys is specific to Google Pubsub and Events to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Topics Named resource publishers send to; Stacksync publishes each record change as a message to a topic for downstream subscribers to consume. Metrics Event type definitions organize the activity stream used in segmentation and attribution. Topics is specific to Google Pubsub and Metrics to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subscriptions A stream of messages from one topic; Stacksync consumes here via StreamingPull or a push endpoint, acknowledging each message after a successful write. Campaigns Email and SMS sends expose performance data for warehouse-based reporting. Subscriptions is specific to Google Pubsub and Campaigns to Klaviyo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Pubsub and Klaviyo

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.

Google Pubsub Klaviyo Sub-second propagation

DetectionGoogle Pubsub notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Consumes messages as they arrive on a subscription — StreamingPull (long-lived gRPC) or a push subscription delivering each message as an HTTPS POST.

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

Klaviyo Google Pubsub Sub-second propagation

DetectionKlaviyo notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on updated timestamps.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Pubsub: Per-region throughput quotas (publish up to ~4 GB/s in large regions); 10 MB max per message and per publish request, 1,000 messages per request, and 1 MBps per ordering key.
  • Klaviyo: Per-endpoint burst and steady rate limits apply.
