Why teams connect Intercom and Redis Enterprise

Treat Intercom like part of your database: its records live in Redis Enterprise 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 Redis Enterprise, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Data Events, Custom Data Attributes, Tags, Segments from Intercom into Streams, Pub/Sub channels, Search indexes, Keys (Strings) in Redis Enterprise with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Intercom 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

  • Mirror conversations and tickets into a warehouse for support analytics and SLA reporting
  • Keep custom data attributes updated from billing or ERP systems so message segments reflect current plan and spend
  • Sync Postgres reference tables into RedisJSON documents that power API responses and personalization lookups.
  • Publish record-change events into Redis Streams so microservices react to upstream CRM updates without polling.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Intercom arrive as row changes in Redis Enterprise, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Intercom become tables in Redis Enterprise you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Redis Enterprise sync onto the matching records in Intercom, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

What you can sync between Intercom and Redis Enterprise

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.

Intercom objects Redis Enterprise objects
Custom Data Attributes Typed custom fields on contacts and companies hold synced billing and usage data. Hashes Field-value maps that commonly hold one synced row per hash, keyed by record ID.
Tags Labels applied to contacts, companies, and conversations sync for routing and reporting. JSON documents Native JSON storage (RedisJSON) for nested records synced from APIs or document stores.
Segments Saved audience definitions are readable for targeting parity across tools. Sets Unordered unique-member collections used for membership checks like segment or ID lists.
Admins & Teams Teammate records map conversation ownership to CRM users. Sorted Sets Score-ordered collections used for rankings, priority queues, and time-ordered indexes.
Articles Help center content is accessible via API for knowledge sync and audits. Lists Ordered sequences often used as lightweight queues fed by sync events.
Contacts A single contact model covers both users and leads, distinguished by a role attribute. Streams Append-only logs with consumer groups, used to fan sync events out to downstream services.
