Why teams connect InfluxDB and Microsoft Graph

Keep InfluxDB and Microsoft Graph in step: the rows in your database and the Contacts, Drive items (OneDrive & SharePoint), Teams messages and chats, Planner tasks your engineering tools track stay consistent in real time, in both directions.

InfluxDB is where your application's durable data lives; Microsoft Graph is where engineering and operations teams track the issues, events, messages, or identities that run alongside it. The two overlap constantly, a row should open a ticket, an alert should land as a record, a user in one should exist in the other, but bridging them today means per-tool integration code: auth, webhooks, pagination, rate limits, and retries, built and maintained separately for every tool.

Stacksync syncs Retention policies, Organizations, Buckets / databases, Measurements in InfluxDB with Contacts, Drive items (OneDrive & SharePoint), Teams messages and chats, Planner tasks in Microsoft Graph field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set, so the database and the tooling around it never drift apart.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write events from operational databases or applications into InfluxDB as time-stamped points for monitoring.
  • 02 Replicate downsampled aggregates into a data warehouse for long-term BI beyond retention windows.
  • 03 Send Outlook mail through the sendMail action when a database or CRM record changes, then read replies back onto the same record.
  • 04 Mirror OneDrive and SharePoint drive items into a data store to index documents and their metadata for search and governance.

Common sync patterns

One integration pattern instead of per-tool API code

Read and write the synced tables in InfluxDB and Stacksync keeps Microsoft Graph current, replacing the auth, webhooks, rate limits, and retry logic you would otherwise maintain for each tool.

React to changes on either side in near real time

Updates in Microsoft Graph arrive as row changes in InfluxDB, and writes to InfluxDB propagate to Microsoft Graph within seconds, so triggers, jobs, and alerts fire without polling.

Where Microsoft Graph manages users or groups: keep identity aligned

Directory and identity records in Microsoft Graph stay matched to the users or owners table in InfluxDB, so provisioning and de-provisioning flow from one source.

What you can sync between InfluxDB and Microsoft Graph

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.

InfluxDB objects Microsoft Graph objects How this pairing syncs
Fields The unindexed numeric or string values carried by each point. Planner tasks Plans, buckets, and tasks via /planner; read and write task status, assignments, and due dates to keep project state in sync. Fields is specific to InfluxDB and Planner tasks to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Retention policies Automatic expiry rules that determine how long synced history remains queryable. Users Entra ID user accounts read and written via /users; create, update profile attributes, and enable or disable accounts with User.ReadWrite.All. Retention policies is specific to InfluxDB and Users to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations Tenancy scope for tokens and buckets in multi-tenant deployments. Groups and memberships Microsoft 365 and security groups via /groups; read and write name, owners, and add/remove members, with membership deltas surfaced by delta query. Organizations is specific to InfluxDB and Groups and memberships to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets / databases Named containers with retention settings that scope reads and writes. Mail messages (Outlook) Messages via /users/{id}/messages; read and create drafts, update, and send with the sendMail action, so this surface is fully read-write. Buckets / databases is specific to InfluxDB and Mail messages (Outlook) to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Measurements The table-like grouping for points, typically mapped to a synced dataset. Calendar events Outlook events via /users/{id}/events; read and write meetings, attendees, and recurrence, and accept or decline invitations. Measurements is specific to InfluxDB and Calendar events to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Points Individual time-stamped records, the unit of write via line protocol. Contacts Personal Outlook contacts via /users/{id}/contacts; full create, read, update, delete, synced two-way with CRM person records. Points is specific to InfluxDB and Contacts to Microsoft Graph — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between InfluxDB and Microsoft Graph

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.

InfluxDB Microsoft Graph Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls InfluxDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with time-range queries.

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

Microsoft Graph InfluxDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionMicrosoft Graph notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delta query (change tracking) returns created, updated, and deleted items since the last deltaLink for users, groups, mail, events, contacts, and.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • InfluxDB: Subject to the platform's API rate limits on cloud plans; self-hosted deployments are bounded by hardware.
  • Microsoft Graph: Throttled per app and per tenant, returning HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header; limits vary by service — the Outlook mail service allows about 10,000 requests per 10 minutes per app per mailbox with up to 4 concurrent requests, and delta and subscription tokens expire and must be renewed.

How the InfluxDB and Microsoft Graph connectors work

InfluxDB

Integration surface
REST API with line-protocol writes; queries via InfluxQL, Flux, or SQL depending on version
Authentication
API token
Change detection
Polling with time-range queries; data is timestamped, so incremental reads use time cursors
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits on cloud plans; self-hosted deployments are bounded by hardware.

Microsoft Graph

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph unified REST API (v1.0 and beta) at graph.microsoft.com, spanning Microsoft 365 services — Entra ID, Outlook mail and calendar, OneDrive and SharePoint, Teams, and Planner; supports JSON $batch (up to 20 requests per call).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID). An app registration holds delegated or application (app-only) scopes such as Mail.ReadWrite, Calendars.ReadWrite, Files.ReadWrite.All, User.ReadWrite.All, and Group.ReadWrite.All; application permissions require tenant admin consent.
Change detection
Delta query (change tracking) returns created, updated, and deleted items since the last deltaLink for users, groups, mail, events, contacts, and driveItems; change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) POST near-real-time notifications to a notification URL and must be renewed before they expire.
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Throttled per app and per tenant, returning HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header; limits vary by service — the Outlook mail service allows about 10,000 requests per 10 minutes per app per mailbox with up to 4 concurrent requests, and delta and subscription tokens expire and must be renewed.
