Why teams connect Iterable and Tinybird

Put modeled data to work and measure what it drives: Tinybird and Iterable keep contacts, audiences, and campaign results in step in real time, in both directions.

Tinybird is where your team models customers, product usage, and revenue into trusted tables; Iterable runs the campaigns, audiences, and messages that reach those people. The two overlap wherever the same person, account, or segment matters to both, and when the bridge between them is a nightly export or a hand-built list, marketing targets stale data while analytics never sees what the campaign returned.

Stacksync syncs Tokens, Data Sources, Pipes, API Endpoints in Tinybird with Templates, Lists, Catalogs, Commerce / Purchases in Iterable field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — a computed score or segment can flow out to Iterable while sends, opens, and conversions flow back to Tinybird — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Compute aggregates in Tinybird and write the results back to CRM fields for scoring and routing.
  • 02 Stream CRM activity such as deals and tickets into Tinybird Data Sources to power customer-facing dashboards.
  • 03 Write list subscribe/unsubscribe changes from a CRM back into Iterable Lists so suppression and opt-in state stay current before the next send.
  • 04 Two-way sync User profiles and their custom data fields between Iterable and a Postgres database or CRM so attributes and subscription state stay aligned in both systems.

Common sync patterns

Keep the contact and audience list current

New and updated contacts, leads, or audience members flow between Tinybird and Iterable, so the marketing audience reflects the people in your warehouse and corrections propagate instead of the two sides drifting apart.

Suppression and consent stay aligned

Unsubscribes, bounces, and consent or opt-out flags held in either system propagate to the other, so no one is messaged after opting out and Tinybird holds the current state for auditing.

Enrich records with warehouse context

Product-usage counts, plan tier, region, or account owner computed in Tinybird appear on the matching record in Iterable, so targeting, routing, and personalization use up-to-date context.

What you can sync between Iterable and Tinybird

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.

Iterable objects Tinybird objects How this pairing syncs
Campaigns Email, SMS, push, and in-app sends; metadata and metrics read via GET /api/campaigns and /api/campaigns/metrics, created and sent via /api/campaigns/create and /api/campaigns/trigger. Pipes Chained SQL nodes that transform Data Sources into query-ready results. Campaigns is specific to Iterable and Pipes to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Templates Reusable email/SMS/push/in-app message templates with handlebars fields; read via /api/templates and per-channel get endpoints, written via /api/templates/email/upsert and the other channel upserts. API Endpoints Published Pipe outputs exposed as parameterized HTTP queries; the main read surface. Templates is specific to Iterable and API Endpoints to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lists Static subscriber lists; read via GET /api/lists and /api/lists/getUsers, with users added or removed via /api/lists/subscribe and /api/lists/unsubscribe to control who receives a send. Materialized Views Pipes materialized into new Data Sources for pre-aggregation at ingest time. Lists is specific to Iterable and Materialized Views to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Catalogs Named catalogs of items (products, content) used for personalization and recommendations; items upserted and read via /api/catalogs/{catalogName}/items. Workspaces Project boundary that scopes Data Sources, Pipes, and tokens for a sync. Catalogs is specific to Iterable and Workspaces to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Commerce / Purchases Purchase and cart activity tracked via /api/commerce/trackPurchase and /api/commerce/updateCart, feeding revenue attribution and abandoned-cart journeys. Tokens Scoped credentials that control read and append rights per resource. Commerce / Purchases is specific to Iterable and Tokens to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Export data Historical user and event records pulled through the Export API (/api/export/data.json, data.csv, and userEvents) across data types like emailSend, emailOpen, emailClick, emailBounce, purchase, and customEvent. Data Sources ClickHouse-backed tables that receive ingested rows; the write target for syncs into Tinybird. Export data is specific to Iterable and Data Sources to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Iterable and Tinybird

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.

Iterable Tinybird Sub-second propagation

DetectionIterable notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. System Webhooks push email/SMS/push/in-app and custom events (send, open, click, bounce, complaint, unsubscribe) as JSON POSTs in near real time.

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

Tinybird Iterable Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Tinybird for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Append-oriented ingestion.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Iterable: Limits are per endpoint and per project/key; exceeding one returns HTTP 429, so exponential backoff is advised. Event tracking allows far higher volume than metadata endpoints like campaigns/templates, and the Export API is throttled more tightly. Since Nov 10, 2025, passing the key in the query string or body is rate-limited more strictly than the Api-Key header.
  • Tinybird: Subject to the platform's ingestion and query rate limits; batch appends where possible.

How the Iterable and Tinybird connectors work

Iterable

Integration surface
Iterable REST API (JSON over HTTPS): Users, Events, Campaigns, Templates, Lists, Catalogs, and Commerce endpoints, plus a bulk Export API for historical data
Authentication
API key sent in the Api-Key HTTP header (also accepted as Api_Key; the name is case-insensitive). Keys are scoped by type - Server-side, JavaScript (Web SDK), or Mobile - with optional JWT-enabled keys. US projects use api.iterable.com; EU projects use api.eu.iterable.com.
Change detection
System Webhooks push email/SMS/push/in-app and custom events (send, open, click, bounce, complaint, unsubscribe) as JSON POSTs in near real time; historical backfill and incremental catch-up run through the Export API over a date range.
