Why teams connect InfluxDB and Sysaid

Mirror Sysaid's data into InfluxDB 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 Sysaid 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 InfluxDB.

Stacksync mirrors Companies, Custom Fields, Incidents, Service Requests from Sysaid into Retention policies, Organizations, Buckets / databases, Measurements in InfluxDB 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 Sysaid, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Assets and Configuration Items with an external CMDB or asset database so inventory and ticket linkage share one source of truth.
  • 02 Stream Service Records into a warehouse for SLA, backlog, and MTTR reporting without manual CSV exports.
  • 03 Push metered usage aggregates into billing systems to drive usage-based pricing.
  • 04 Write events from operational databases or applications into InfluxDB as time-stamped points for monitoring.

Common sync patterns

Automate Sysaid from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in InfluxDB and Stacksync propagates the change into Sysaid, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Sysaid arrive as row changes in InfluxDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

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.

What you can sync between InfluxDB 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.

InfluxDB objects Sysaid objects How this pairing syncs
Fields The unindexed numeric or string values carried by each point. Companies Customer and department organizations that scope tickets and users; mapped to Accounts in a CRM or org tables in a database. Fields is specific to InfluxDB and Companies to Sysaid — 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. Custom Fields Org-specific fields on service records, discoverable through the API so mappings can be generated without hardcoding names. Retention policies is specific to InfluxDB and Custom Fields to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations Tenancy scope for tokens and buckets in multi-tenant deployments. Incidents Break/fix tickets under /api/v1/sr with type=incident; created and updated two-way with status, priority, assignee, category, and SLA fields. Organizations is specific to InfluxDB and Incidents to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets / databases Named containers with retention settings that scope reads and writes. 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. Buckets / databases is specific to InfluxDB and Service Requests to Sysaid — 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. Problems Root-cause records that group related incidents; read and written to keep problem management aligned with an external ITSM or reporting store. Measurements is specific to InfluxDB and Problems to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Points Individual time-stamped records, the unit of write via line protocol. Changes Change records (type=change) with approval and scheduling fields; synced two-way to drive CAB review and deployment workflows. Points is specific to InfluxDB and Changes to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between InfluxDB 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.

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

Sysaid InfluxDB 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 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.
  • 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 InfluxDB and Sysaid 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

Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits on cloud plans; self-hosted deployments are bounded by hardware.

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.

Rate limits
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.
