Why teams connect Lever and StarRocks

Land the people and organization records from Lever in StarRocks as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Lever can use them.

Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Lever is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in StarRocks next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Interviews, Notes and Contacts, Opportunities, Postings from Lever into tables in StarRocks continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in StarRocks, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Lever where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.

Common use cases

  • 01 Serve customer-facing analytics from SaaS data synced into one analytical store
  • 02 Consolidate several sources into StarRocks as the query layer while Stacksync handles movement
  • 03 Push Postings and Requisitions into an HRIS or warehouse to reconcile approved headcount against open roles.
  • 04 When an Opportunity is marked hired, write the candidate and its Offer into an HRIS or onboarding system to start employee provisioning.

Common sync patterns

Fresh data instead of last night's load

Because changes stream continuously, reports query current workforce data rather than waiting for an overnight load window to finish.

Queryable history for planning and audit

A continuously synced copy in StarRocks gives you a durable, queryable record of how Lever's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

Write-back of computed values

Segments, rollups, or risk flags computed in StarRocks sync back onto the matching records in Lever, where the HR team sees them in the system they already use.

What you can sync between Lever and StarRocks

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.

Lever objects StarRocks objects How this pairing syncs
Feedback Interview feedback and scorecard forms attached to Opportunities; created via POST /opportunities/:id/feedback and consolidated into a warehouse for interviewer analytics. Partitions Time or range partitions that scope loads and retention. Feedback is specific to Lever and Partitions to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Interviews Scheduled interview panel events with times and interviewers; read for scheduling reporting and time-to-hire metrics, and creatable via the panels endpoint. Columns Columnar storage with types mapped from source systems during sync. Interviews is specific to Lever and Columns to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Notes and Contacts Free-text Notes on Opportunities plus the underlying Contact (person) that dedupes multiple Opportunities; notes are posted via POST /opportunities/:id/notes and contact-level tags, sources, and links can be added back for attribution. Databases Top-level namespaces addressed exactly as in MySQL clients. Notes and Contacts is specific to Lever and Databases to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Opportunities The core pipeline record for a candidate applying to a role; replaced the deprecated Candidates endpoint. Created via POST /opportunities and updated (stage, archive, links, tags, sources, files) through the API, and synced two-way with a database or HRIS. Tables Defined with a table model (Primary Key, Unique Key, Aggregate, Duplicate Key) that determines update behavior. Opportunities is specific to Lever and Tables to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Postings Job posting records with categories, apply URLs, workplace type, and requisition codes. Can be created via POST /postings and read into a warehouse for open-role reporting. Materialized views Automatically maintained rollups used to accelerate queries on synced data. Postings is specific to Lever and Materialized views to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Requisitions Headcount/requisition records with custom requisition fields, tied to Postings; read via GET /requisitions and synced to an HRIS to reconcile approved headcount against open roles. Views Logical views for shaping analytical reads. Requisitions is specific to Lever and Views to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Lever and StarRocks

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.

Lever StarRocks Sub-second propagation

DetectionLever notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for candidate and application lifecycle events (applicationCreated, candidateStageChange, candidateArchiveStateChange, candidateHired,.

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

StarRocks Lever Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls StarRocks for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Query-based polling when reading.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Lever: 10 requests/second per API key with a token-bucket burst to ~20/s; POSTs that create candidates/applications are throttled to roughly 2/second. Sustained overage returns 429 with Retry-After. List endpoints are cursor-paginated at up to 100 records per page.
  • StarRocks: Ingestion throughput is bounded by cluster resources rather than API quotas.
