Why teams connect MotherDuck and Sharepoint

Bridge query-ready tables and stored files: MotherDuck and Sharepoint keep the same records in step, in real time, in both directions.

MotherDuck keeps the tables and query results a business reports on; Sharepoint keeps the raw files, documents, and objects that the same business produces and shares. The two overlap wherever a dataset lives as both — a file dropped in Sharepoint that has to become rows in MotherDuck, or a result in MotherDuck that people downstream need back as a file in Sharepoint. When that overlap is bridged by manual export and import or an overnight job, one side spends the day working from a stale copy.

Stacksync syncs Schemas, Tables, Views, Database Shares in MotherDuck with Permissions and sharing, Site pages, Sites, Lists in Sharepoint field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land CRM and operational database records in MotherDuck so a small team gets warehouse-style analytics without cluster management
  • 02 Sync modeled MotherDuck tables outward to operational tools for activation
  • 03 Mirror document-library drive items and their metadata into a store to index files for search and governance, and push generated documents back into the right library.
  • 04 Sync list columns and content types so database fields map onto SharePoint list fields and schema stays aligned as either side changes.

Common sync patterns

Where Sharepoint receives the raw files: land them as query-ready rows

Files and exports that arrive in Sharepoint are parsed into Schemas, Tables, Views, Database Shares in MotherDuck as they land, so analysts query current data instead of waiting on the next scheduled load.

Where Sharepoint is the shared drive: publish results back as files

Curated tables and query results from MotherDuck are written to Sharepoint as files the rest of the business can open, keeping the shared copy current without a hand-run export.

One dataset, kept consistent both ways

Where the same dataset lives as a file in Sharepoint and a table in MotherDuck, a change on either side propagates to the other, ending the drift between the file people read and the table people query.

What you can sync between MotherDuck and Sharepoint

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.

MotherDuck objects Sharepoint objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize synced tables. Lists Custom lists and libraries via /sites/{id}/lists; create and read lists along with their columns and content types so a target system can mirror or provision list definitions. Schemas is specific to MotherDuck and Lists to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The main landing target for synced records and source for analysis. List items Rows in a SharePoint list via /lists/{id}/items with a fields facet of column values; full create, read, update, and delete, synced two-way with database rows. Tables is specific to MotherDuck and List items to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Modeled projections used as outbound sync sources. Drive items (document libraries) Files and folders in a library's drive via /drives and /drive/root; upload, download, move, delete, and read per-item metadata, synced two-way with a store. Views is specific to MotherDuck and Drive items (document libraries) to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Database Shares Read-only copies of a database shared with other users or teams. Columns and content types Field definitions and content types on a site or list; read the schema and create columns so database fields map cleanly onto SharePoint list fields. Database Shares is specific to MotherDuck and Columns and content types to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attached Local DuckDB Databases Local files attached alongside cloud databases for hybrid queries. Permissions and sharing Role assignments and sharing links on sites, list items, and drive items; read and written to manage access, requiring Sites.Manage.All or Sites.FullControl.All scopes. Attached Local DuckDB Databases is specific to MotherDuck and Permissions and sharing to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Cloud-hosted DuckDB databases that scope a sync's reads and writes. Site pages Modern site pages via /sites/{id}/pages; read page content, layout, and metadata for indexing and content governance. Databases is specific to MotherDuck and Site pages to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MotherDuck and Sharepoint

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.

MotherDuck Sharepoint Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls MotherDuck for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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

Sharepoint MotherDuck Sub-second propagation

DetectionSharepoint notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • MotherDuck: Subject to the platform's compute and concurrency limits rather than per-request API rate limits.
  • Sharepoint: SharePoint Online throttles per app, returning HTTP 429 (or 503) with a Retry-After header in seconds and IETF RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, and RateLimit-Reset headers; throttled requests still count toward limits, so clients honor the greater of Retry-After and RateLimit-Reset with exponential backoff.

How the MotherDuck and Sharepoint connectors work

MotherDuck

Integration surface
SQL through DuckDB clients and drivers using a MotherDuck (md:) connection
Authentication
Access token created in MotherDuck (Settings > General > Create Token), pasted into Stacksync; database name and schema configurable if not using defaults

MotherDuck setup guide

Sharepoint

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (graph.microsoft.com/v1.0 and beta) covering SharePoint sites, lists, list items, columns, content types, and document-library drives and drive items; plus the classic SharePoint REST API (_api/web) and CSOM. Supports Graph JSON $batch (up to 20 requests per call).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID). An app registration holds delegated or application (app-only) scopes such as Sites.Read.All, Sites.ReadWrite.All, Sites.Selected, Sites.Manage.All, or Sites.FullControl.All, plus Files.ReadWrite.All for drive content; application permissions require tenant admin consent.
Change detection
Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last deltaLink; change-notification subscriptions (push webhooks) POST near-real-time notifications for list and drive/root changes to a notification URL and must be renewed before they expire. Classic SharePoint list webhooks are also available.
