Why teams connect MySQL and Rollworks

Give your team Rollworks's contacts, campaigns, and engagement in MySQL: query them with SQL, push audiences built from your own data back to Rollworks, and skip the marketing API.

Rollworks holds the people, audiences, and campaign activity that marketing runs on, but that data sits behind interfaces built for marketers, not for your internal systems. Engineers and analysts who need contacts, list membership, or engagement, for reporting, attribution, or product logic, end up writing integration code against a rate-limited API and maintaining it forever. Meanwhile the customer and usage data marketers want for targeting already lives in MySQL, hard to get into campaigns without manual exports.

Stacksync mirrors Reporting and Attribution, Target Account Lists, Account Tiers, Accounts (TAL Items) from Rollworks into Triggers, Databases (Schemas), Tables, Views in MySQL field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Marketing records become rows your code can query and join with product and customer data; audiences and attributes computed in MySQL, from usage, orders, or account status, sync back into Rollworks to drive campaigns and ads, with Rollworks kept authoritative for engagement. You decide which side owns which fields, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep e-commerce orders in MySQL flowing into finance and fulfillment systems without export scripts
  • 02 Feed a warehouse from MySQL continuously using binlog-based capture instead of nightly dumps
  • 03 Consolidate account-level ad engagement by domain into a reporting database to join RollWorks spend against CRM Opportunities.
  • 04 Push a Target Account List from a CRM or warehouse into RollWorks, keeping Accounts (domains) and their Account Tiers aligned as the source data changes.

Common sync patterns

Query Rollworks like a database

Contacts, leads, audiences, and campaign metrics from Rollworks live in MySQL as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data and reachable without touching the vendor API.

Build audiences from your own data

Segments computed in MySQL from product usage, orders, or account status sync into Rollworks as lists or audiences, so campaigns and ads target the people your data says they should.

Engagement and results next to the customer

Opens, clicks, sends, RSVPs, or ad activity from Rollworks land in MySQL beside the matching customer record, ready for reporting and revenue attribution.

What you can sync between MySQL and Rollworks

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 Rollworks objects How this pairing syncs
Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Target Account Lists Named lists of B2B accounts for ABM; managed through /audience/v1/target_accounts so a CRM or warehouse can push and reconcile the accounts RollWorks advertises against. Triggers is specific to MySQL and Target Account Lists to Rollworks — 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. Account Tiers Groups within a Target Account List; an account belongs to only one tier per list, so tier assignments are written from source-of-truth data to drive tiered targeting. Databases (Schemas) is specific to MySQL and Account Tiers to Rollworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Accounts (TAL Items) Individual accounts identified by domain; added or removed via the tier items endpoint (POST/DELETE) so an operational database can control which domains are targeted. Tables is specific to MySQL and Accounts (TAL Items) to Rollworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Audience Segments CRM (email), custom (cookie or ID), and lookalike segments created via /audience/v1/segments; membership is written from a warehouse with a duration of 1 to 540 days. Views is specific to MySQL and Audience Segments to Rollworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Campaigns Prospecting v2 campaigns running on Web and LinkedIn with budget, KPI, and flight settings; created and edited via API and read back for status and pacing. Columns is specific to MySQL and Campaigns to Rollworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. Ad Groups and Ads Campaign subdivisions carrying attribute, contextual, geo, and device targeting plus creative; read and written to keep targeting aligned with an internal planning system. Primary and Unique Keys is specific to MySQL and Ad Groups and Ads to Rollworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MySQL and Rollworks

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 Rollworks 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 Rollworks through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rollworks MySQL Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Rollworks for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling — reporting is pulled via GraphQL queries and account/audience membership is reconciled on a schedule.

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.
  • Rollworks: NextRoll does not publish explicit rate limits; access tokens expire 24 hours after issue and refresh tokens rotate on use, so long-running syncs must keep refreshing credentials.
