Why teams connect Google Sheets and SAP Hana

Mirror Google Sheets's data into SAP Hana 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 Google Sheets 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 SAP Hana.

Stacksync mirrors Cell values, Spreadsheets, Sheets (tabs), Rows from Google Sheets into Sequences, Triggers, System-versioned temporal tables, System views (SYS schema) in SAP Hana 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 Google Sheets, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Prototype an integration by syncing a sheet before committing to a database schema.
  • 02 Give ops and finance teams an editable spreadsheet view of CRM or database records, with edits written back to the source.
  • 03 Detect inserts, updates, and deletes on high-write tables via AFTER triggers or a last-modified column and replicate the deltas downstream near-real-time.
  • 04 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.

Common sync patterns

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 Google Sheets with a query

Records from Google Sheets are ordinary rows in SAP Hana; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Google Sheets from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in SAP Hana and Stacksync propagates the change into Google Sheets, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between Google Sheets and SAP Hana

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 Sheets objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Ranges Addressed in A1 notation for batched reads and writes. Row store tables OLTP-oriented tables held fully in memory; read and written the same way through the SAP HANA client for high-write operational tables. Ranges is specific to Google Sheets and Row store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Named ranges Stable references that keep sync mappings valid when the grid moves. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Named ranges is specific to Google Sheets and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cell values Untyped by default, so syncs handle type coercion for dates and numbers. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Cell values is specific to Google Sheets and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Spreadsheets The file-level container a sync connects to, identified by spreadsheet ID. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Spreadsheets is specific to Google Sheets and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sheets (tabs) Individual worksheets, typically mapped one-to-one to a synced table. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Sheets (tabs) is specific to Google Sheets and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows Treated as records; a header row usually defines field names. Triggers AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers capture changes into a shadow/logging table so updates and deletes are detected near-real-time without full scans. Rows is specific to Google Sheets and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Sheets and SAP Hana

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 Sheets SAP Hana Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Google Sheets for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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

SAP Hana Google Sheets Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in SAP Hana are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Sheets: Subject to per-minute read and write quotas per project and per user, so large syncs are batched.
  • SAP Hana: No SaaS-style request quota; throughput is bounded by connection limits, statement memory caps, and workload-class admission control (concurrency/memory limits) that share capacity with production queries.

How the Google Sheets and SAP Hana connectors work

Google Sheets

Integration surface
REST API (Google Sheets API), with file-level change signals available through the Drive API
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (user consent) or Google service accounts
Change detection
Polling; the Sheets API has no cell-level webhooks, and Drive push notifications only signal file-level changes
Capabilities

Rate limits
Subject to per-minute read and write quotas per project and per user, so large syncs are batched.

SAP Hana

Integration surface
SQL over the SAP HANA client (JDBC/ODBC drivers); OData/REST via XS for app-layer access
Authentication
Dedicated database user credentials over an encrypted TLS connection (password sent hashed); Kerberos, SAML, JWT, and X.509 certificate authentication are also supported. SAP HANA Cloud enforces TLS and IP allowlisting.
Change detection
Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table; system-versioned temporal tables and SLT/SDI provide trigger- and log-based CDC. No native webhooks.
