Why teams connect MySQL and Seismic

Treat Seismic like part of your database: its records live in MySQL as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in MySQL, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors LiveSend Links, Digital Sales Rooms, Reporting Activities, Library Content from Seismic into Stored Procedures, Triggers, Databases (Schemas), Tables in MySQL with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Seismic with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Library Content metadata and Custom Property Schemas with a DAM or PIM so one taxonomy governs assets across systems.
  • 02 React to ContentManager and DSR webhook events to update a database when documents are published, versioned, or expired.
  • 03 Replicate ERP master data (customers, items, pricing) into the MySQL databases behind storefronts and portals
  • 04 Keep e-commerce orders in MySQL flowing into finance and fulfillment systems without export scripts

Common sync patterns

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Seismic arrive as row changes in MySQL, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Seismic become tables in MySQL you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to MySQL sync onto the matching records in Seismic, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

What you can sync between MySQL and Seismic

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 Seismic objects How this pairing syncs
JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. Digital Sales Rooms Buyer-facing microsites (DSRs); lifecycle and content-change events surface via webhooks, currently marked Early Access. JSON Columns is specific to MySQL and Digital Sales Rooms to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Reporting Activities Content-interaction, engagement, and usage analytics extracted read-only through the ETL-oriented Reporting API v2 for a warehouse. Stored Procedures is specific to MySQL and Reporting Activities to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Library Content Documents, decks, and assets stored in teamsites; created, moved, and retrieved via the Content Management API, each with a contentId. Triggers is specific to MySQL and Library Content to Seismic — 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. Content Versions Version history for a library item; new versions upload via API and old ones expire, with events firing on ContentManager webhooks. Databases (Schemas) is specific to MySQL and Content Versions to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Users User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. Tables is specific to MySQL and Users to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. User Groups Group definitions and membership that govern content access; synced from an IdP or HRIS to keep permissions current. Views is specific to MySQL and User Groups to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MySQL and Seismic

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

Seismic MySQL Sub-second propagation

DetectionSeismic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend 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.
  • Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.
