Why teams connect Gorgias and Render Postgres

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

Stacksync mirrors Customers, Users (agents), Tags, Satisfaction surveys from Gorgias into Columns and Types, Indexes and Constraints, Tables, Views in Render Postgres with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Gorgias 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 Push order, subscription, and shipping data from a production database into Gorgias customer profiles so agents see context without switching tools.
  • 02 Route high-value or churn-risk customers to priority queues by writing scores from a data warehouse into ticket or customer fields.
  • 03 Two-way sync CRM or ERP objects into Render Postgres tables so product and ops teams query business data with plain SQL.
  • 04 Capture row-level changes via logical replication and propagate them to a warehouse or another database in near real time.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Gorgias arrive as row changes in Render Postgres, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Gorgias become tables in Render Postgres you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Gorgias and Render Postgres

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.

Gorgias objects Render Postgres objects How this pairing syncs
Custom fields Extend tickets with brand-specific attributes. Schemas Namespaces that organize tables per app or environment; sync targets are scoped per schema to keep synced data isolated and tidy. Custom fields is specific to Gorgias and Schemas to Render Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tickets The central support object, aggregating a conversation across channels. Columns and Types Full Postgres type system including JSONB and arrays; field mappings preserve native types instead of flattening to strings. Tickets is specific to Gorgias and Columns and Types to Render Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Messages Individual inbound and outbound messages attached to a ticket. Indexes and Constraints Primary keys, unique constraints, and foreign keys; unique keys drive idempotent upserts and conflict resolution during sync. Messages is specific to Gorgias and Indexes and Constraints to Render Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Customers Unified shopper profiles that merge identities across connected stores. Tables Relational tables with full column typing; synced two-way with CRMs, ERPs, and SaaS apps so application data is queryable as plain Postgres rows. Customers is specific to Gorgias and Tables to Render Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users (agents) Support staff records used for assignment and workload reporting. Views Saved queries exposed as read-only relations; read out to BI tools or downstream syncs without duplicating transformation logic. Users (agents) is specific to Gorgias and Views to Render Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tags Categorize tickets for routing and downstream analytics. Materialized Views Precomputed query results refreshed on demand; read for fast reporting tables that downstream systems can consume. Tags is specific to Gorgias and Materialized Views to Render Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Gorgias and Render Postgres

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.

Gorgias Render Postgres Sub-second propagation

DetectionGorgias notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for ticket and message events, supplemented by polling with updated-at cursors.

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

Render Postgres Gorgias Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Render Postgres are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Logical replication via WAL and replication slots for change data capture when enabled on the instance, with timestamp or cursor-based polling as the.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Gorgias: Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by plan.
  • Render Postgres: No API rate limits — throughput is bounded by the instance's plan (CPU, RAM, connection limit); connection pooling is recommended since managed plans cap concurrent connections.
