Why teams connect MySQL and Ramp

Work with Ramp's financial data straight from MySQL: 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 Funds (Spend Controls), General Ledger Accounts, Transactions, Cards from Ramp into Triggers, Databases (Schemas), Tables, Views in MySQL and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against MySQL, 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 Read Reimbursements into a finance database for cross-entity expense reporting and reconciliation without manual CSV exports.
  • 02 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.
  • 03 Feed a warehouse from MySQL continuously using binlog-based capture instead of nightly dumps
  • 04 Two-way sync between a MySQL application database and a CRM so operational records and sales records stay identical

Common sync patterns

React to financial events

Changes in Ramp appear in MySQL 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 MySQL as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on MySQL; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Ramp.

What you can sync between MySQL 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.

MySQL objects Ramp objects How this pairing syncs
JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. Bills Accounts-payable bills; created, updated, approved, and paid, then posted ready-to-sync and synced to accounting. JSON Columns is specific to MySQL and Bills to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Vendors Supplier records under the accounting namespace; uploaded and updated for AP matching and payments. Stored Procedures is specific to MySQL and Vendors to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Funds (Spend Controls) Spend controls governing card usage; read and created via the funds API to enforce budgets per user, department, or program. Triggers is specific to MySQL and Funds (Spend Controls) to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. General Ledger Accounts Chart-of-accounts entries uploaded from the ERP; accounting codings are posted back against transactions and bills. Databases (Schemas) is specific to MySQL and General Ledger Accounts to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Transactions Card purchase records with merchant, amount, and state; read for spend/GL sync and written back via accounting codings and sync status. Tables is specific to MySQL and Transactions to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Cards Physical and virtual card records; created and managed through the API to provision or suspend cardholder spend. Views is specific to MySQL and Cards to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MySQL 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.

MySQL Ramp Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MySQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing (requires log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON when.

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

Ramp MySQL 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 MySQL as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • MySQL: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources.
  • 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.

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.
