Why teams connect InfluxDB and Pendo

Give Pendo the users, events, and records that live in InfluxDB in real time, and sync the cohorts and scores Pendo computes back into InfluxDB where your applications read them.

A database holds the rows your business runs on: the users, events, orders, and records that every service reads and writes. Pendo is where people make sense of them, as dashboards, funnels, cohorts, and metrics. Moving the data from InfluxDB into Pendo usually means a hand-built extract or a change-data-capture pipeline that breaks the moment a column is renamed, and reporting that always trails last night's load.

Stacksync syncs Tags, Fields, Retention policies, Organizations in InfluxDB with Visitors, Accounts, Feature Events, Page Events in Pendo in real time and in both directions. Operational rows flow into Pendo as they change, so dashboards read current data with no pipeline to maintain, and the segments, cohorts, or scores Pendo computes flow back into InfluxDB, where the applications and services that read from it get them at normal query latency. Field-level mapping, schema and type translation, and conflict resolution are handled for you.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Pendo Visitors and Accounts into a data model to score product-qualified accounts alongside behavioral event data.
  • 02 Load guide-engagement events into a reporting database to measure onboarding-flow adoption against retention and expansion.
  • 03 Write events from operational databases or applications into InfluxDB as time-stamped points for monitoring.
  • 04 Replicate downsampled aggregates into a data warehouse for long-term BI beyond retention windows.

Common sync patterns

Where Pendo builds cohorts or scores: results your services can read

Segments, cohorts, or scores computed in Pendo sync back into InfluxDB, where the services that read from the database act on them at query speed without calling the analytics API.

Analytics on live operational data, minus the pipeline

The users, events, orders, and records stored in InfluxDB land in Pendo as they change, so dashboards, funnels, and metrics run on current data instead of last night's extract.

One version of each user or account

A user, account, or record corrected in either system updates the other, so the identity your reports group by matches the identity your database stores.

What you can sync between InfluxDB and Pendo

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 Pendo objects How this pairing syncs
Organizations Tenancy scope for tokens and buckets in multi-tenant deployments. Features / Pages / Guides (metadata) Definitions of tagged UI elements listed through the entity endpoints; read-only reference used to label and join the event streams. Organizations is specific to InfluxDB and Features / Pages / Guides (metadata) to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets / databases Named containers with retention settings that scope reads and writes. Visitors End-user records with agent-collected and custom fields; queried through the Aggregation API and enriched with custom fields written back via the Metadata API. Buckets / databases is specific to InfluxDB and Visitors to Pendo — 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. Accounts Company/workspace records that roll visitors up to an account dimension; readable via Aggregation and a write target for custom fields (plan, ARR, health) via the Metadata API. Measurements is specific to InfluxDB and Accounts to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Points Individual time-stamped records, the unit of write via line protocol. Feature Events Click/interaction events on tagged features, read-only through the Aggregation API over an event-time window and joined to the Feature definitions. Points is specific to InfluxDB and Feature Events to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tags Indexed key-value metadata used for filtering and as sync partition keys. Page Events Page-view events for tagged pages; read-only via the Aggregation API, used for adoption and path analysis in a warehouse. Tags is specific to InfluxDB and Page Events to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fields The unindexed numeric or string values carried by each point. Guide Events Guide seen/advanced/dismissed and step events for in-app walkthroughs; read-only through the Aggregation API to measure onboarding flow adoption. Fields is specific to InfluxDB and Guide Events to Pendo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between InfluxDB and Pendo

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

Pendo InfluxDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Pendo for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling - reads query the Aggregation API over event-time windows.

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.
  • Pendo: Pendo does not publish fixed numeric limits; it throttles heavy Aggregation queries with 429s and caps/paginates large responses, so wide exports are paced and time-windowed.

How the InfluxDB and Pendo 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.

Pendo

Integration surface
Pendo Engage API (REST) on app.pendo.io (US) / app.eu.pendo.io (EU), base path /api/v1/ - Aggregation API for reads and the Metadata API for writes
Authentication
Integration key sent in the x-pendo-integration-key header, generated in Subscription Settings; keys are scoped read-only or read/write, so writes require a read/write key
Change detection
Polling - reads query the Aggregation API over event-time windows; no change-data-capture feed and no data-change webhooks. Writes go through the Metadata API on demand.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Pendo does not publish fixed numeric limits; it throttles heavy Aggregation queries with 429s and caps/paginates large responses, so wide exports are paced and time-windowed.
