Why teams connect MongoDB and Ramp

Work with Ramp's financial data straight from MongoDB: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Departments, Reimbursements, Bills, Vendors from Ramp into Views, Change streams, GridFS files, Databases in MongoDB and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against MongoDB, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Ramp with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync Transactions and their accounting codings with a Postgres warehouse so finance analyzes spend in SQL and pushes GL categories and memos back to Ramp.
  • 02 Mirror Bills and their approval and payment state into an AP or ERP system, marking each one ready-to-sync then synced to keep both ledgers reconciled.
  • 03 Sync MongoDB collections with a CRM so customer documents written by the application appear as CRM records, and CRM edits flow back as document updates.
  • 04 Replicate operational MongoDB data into a relational database, flattening nested documents into normalized tables for SQL reporting.

Common sync patterns

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in MongoDB propagate into Ramp, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Ramp appear in MongoDB as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Ramp live in MongoDB as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

What you can sync between MongoDB and Ramp

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.

MongoDB objects Ramp objects How this pairing syncs
GridFS files Chunked file storage whose metadata can be referenced by synced documents. General Ledger Accounts Chart-of-accounts entries uploaded from the ERP; accounting codings are posted back against transactions and bills. GridFS files is specific to MongoDB and General Ledger Accounts to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical groupings of collections that scope a sync connection. Transactions Card purchase records with merchant, amount, and state; read for spend/GL sync and written back via accounting codings and sync status. Databases is specific to MongoDB and Transactions to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collections The table-like sync unit; each collection maps to a table or object in the paired system. Cards Physical and virtual card records; created and managed through the API to provision or suspend cardholder spend. Collections is specific to MongoDB and Cards to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Documents BSON records created, updated, and deleted during syncs, keyed by _id. Users Employee and cardholder records; invited, updated, and deactivated, commonly synced from an HRIS or identity provider. Documents is specific to MongoDB and Users to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Embedded documents and arrays Nested structures that syncs flatten or map to related records in relational targets. Departments Org groupings for cost-center and GL allocation; pushed from an ERP/HRIS and referenced by cards and transactions. Embedded documents and arrays is specific to MongoDB and Departments to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes Keep lookups by sync key fast on large collections. Reimbursements Out-of-pocket expense claims; read for reporting and marked ready-to-sync then synced to the ERP. Indexes is specific to MongoDB and Reimbursements to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MongoDB and Ramp

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.

MongoDB Ramp Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MongoDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. MongoDB oplog and change streams (requires the database to run as a replica set — even single-node).

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

Ramp MongoDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionRamp notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Signed webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 X-Ramp-Signature) for bill, transaction, reimbursement, vendor, and user events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Ramp: 200 requests per 10-second rolling window per source IP; exceeding it returns 429 Too Many Requests, and requests running over 60 seconds return 504. Results use keyset pagination (follow the page.next URL / start cursor); higher limits can be requested from support.

How the MongoDB and Ramp connectors work

MongoDB

Integration surface
MongoDB wire protocol via official drivers; Atlas additionally offers an administration REST API for cluster management
Authentication
Database credentials (username/password) or TLS/SSL X.509 certificate (.pem upload), entered individually or via a MongoDB connection string (SRV or standard); Stacksync IP allowlisting required
Change detection
MongoDB oplog and change streams (requires the database to run as a replica set — even single-node); Stacksync leverages these built-in tools to track changes in real time

Ramp

Integration surface
REST API (Developer API v1)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0: exchange client_id/client_secret (HTTP Basic) at api.ramp.com/developer/v1/token for scoped bearer tokens; client_credentials grant for server-to-server and authorization_code for user-delegated access; scopes follow resource:permission (e.g. transactions:read, bills:write, accounting:write).
Change detection
Signed webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 X-Ramp-Signature) for bill, transaction, reimbursement, vendor, and user events; otherwise poll incrementally (synced_after on transactions, from_created_at on bills) with keyset pagination, or read the audit-logs/events feed.
