Why teams connect Google Pubsub and Sysaid

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

Sysaid 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 Assets, Configuration Items (CIs), Companies, Custom Fields in Sysaid with Ordering keys, Topics, Subscriptions, Messages 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 Two-way sync Incidents and Service Requests with a Postgres database so on-call and internal apps read and update tickets in SQL while agents keep working in SysAid.
  • 02 Create SysAid Incidents from monitoring or error-tracking alerts, then write status and resolution back so both systems stay aligned.
  • 03 Fan out CRM record changes to a topic and let billing, analytics, and notification subscriptions each react without coupling to the source.
  • 04 Bridge order or billing events off a topic into an ERP or ticketing system as they arrive, mapping message attributes to target fields.

Common sync patterns

Where Google Pubsub tracks engineering work: requests become issues

A ticket or request raised in Sysaid 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 Sysaid 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 Sysaid 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 Sysaid

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 Sysaid objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Avro or Protocol Buffer definitions bound to a topic; validate that every published message matches the agreed structure. Service Requests Catalog and help-desk requests on the same /sr endpoint (type=request); written or read so fulfillment can be driven from another system. Schemas is specific to Google Pubsub and Service Requests to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Snapshots Captured subscription state for seek/replay; lets already-acknowledged messages be redelivered from a point in time. Problems Root-cause records that group related incidents; read and written to keep problem management aligned with an external ITSM or reporting store. Snapshots is specific to Google Pubsub and Problems to Sysaid — 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. Changes Change records (type=change) with approval and scheduling fields; synced two-way to drive CAB review and deployment workflows. Message attributes is specific to Google Pubsub and Changes to Sysaid — 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. Users End users and admins on the /users endpoint; synced with an HRIS or identity source to keep requester and agent records current. Dead-letter topics is specific to Google Pubsub and Users to Sysaid — 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. Assets Hardware and software inventory; read out to a warehouse or written from a discovery or CMDB source of truth. Ordering keys is specific to Google Pubsub and Assets to Sysaid — 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. Configuration Items (CIs) CMDB entries and their relationships; synced with an external CMDB or asset database for one inventory view. Topics is specific to Google Pubsub and Configuration Items (CIs) to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Pubsub and Sysaid

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

Sysaid Google Pubsub Sub-second propagation

DetectionSysaid notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature.

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.
  • Sysaid: Requests are throttled per the X-RateLimit-Limit / -Remaining / -Reset headers; list calls are paginated with a limit parameter and each org is capped at 100 application keys.

How the Google Pubsub and Sysaid connectors work

Google Pubsub

Integration surface
REST and gRPC (Cloud Pub/Sub API v1)
Authentication
Google Cloud IAM via OAuth 2.0 / service-account credentials (JSON key or workload identity); requires roles such as pubsub.publisher and pubsub.subscriber
Change detection
Consumes messages as they arrive on a subscription — StreamingPull (long-lived gRPC) or a push subscription delivering each message as an HTTPS POST; no modified-date polling
Capabilities

Rate limits
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

Sysaid

Integration surface
REST API (JSON)
Authentication
Client-credentials app keys: an application key (clientId/clientSecret) is created via /v1/application-keys, then exchanged at /v1/access-tokens for a bearer token (default 24h, up to 30 days); an x-sysaid-accountid header scopes the account. Legacy V0 uses session-cookie login.
Change detection
Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature; otherwise poll the /sr endpoint filtering on update_time.gte.
