Why teams connect Navan and SingleStore

Work with Navan's financial data straight from SingleStore: 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 Receipts, Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments, Users, Card Transactions from Navan into Indexes and Shard Keys, Databases, Tables (rowstore and columnstore), Views in SingleStore and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against SingleStore, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Navan with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Pull Bookings by date range into a database to reconcile travel reservations against Card Transactions and monitor travel-policy spend.
  • 02 Sync Users and department mappings from an HRIS into reporting tables so every transaction is attributed to a cost center and manager.
  • 03 Consolidate data from transactional databases and SaaS apps into one store that handles both lookups and scans.
  • 04 Keep reference data consistent between SingleStore and application databases.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API plumbing

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

Write back safely

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

React to financial events

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

What you can sync between Navan and SingleStore

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.

Navan objects SingleStore objects How this pairing syncs
Manual Transactions Out-of-pocket reimbursements and payroll submissions; synced for approval and reimbursement, then GL-coded back into Navan. Pipelines Native ingestion jobs from Kafka or object storage that coexist with external syncs. Manual Transactions is specific to Navan and Pipelines to SingleStore — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Bookings Flight, hotel, rail, and car reservations from the Booking API; pulled read-only by createdFrom/createdTo date range for trip and travel-spend reporting. Stored Procedures Existing logic sometimes invoked on write paths. Bookings is specific to Navan and Stored Procedures to SingleStore — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields Company metadata such as cost centers and project codes; discovered via GET and their option lists created or updated via async POST. Indexes and Shard Keys Determine data distribution and lookup speed for sync match keys. Custom Fields is specific to Navan and Indexes and Shard Keys to SingleStore — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Receipts Receipt images tied to each transaction; fetched read-only through presigned URLs for archival in a warehouse or document store. Databases The connection target containing the tables a sync addresses. Receipts is specific to Navan and Databases to SingleStore — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments Money-movement records including repayments, FX and platform fees, and credit or debit memos; read-only for reconciliation ledgers. Tables (rowstore and columnstore) Primary read/write target; storage type affects whether a table suits point lookups or scans. Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments is specific to Navan and Tables (rowstore and columnstore) to SingleStore — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Employee and cardholder records referenced by every transaction; usually provisioned from an HRIS and used to map spend to people and departments. Views Read-only projections used as curated sync sources. Users is specific to Navan and Views to SingleStore — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Navan and SingleStore

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.

Navan SingleStore Sub-second propagation

DetectionNavan notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Navan's Expense API supports webhooks for transaction and expense events.

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

SingleStore Navan Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls SingleStore for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on timestamp or watermark columns.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Navan: Requests are throttled with HTTP 429 and Navan recommends retrying with exponential backoff; the Expense/Public API must first be enabled per account by Navan.
  • SingleStore: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by workspace or cluster size.

How the Navan and SingleStore connectors work

Navan

Integration surface
REST (Expense API and Booking API)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client-credentials flow; an admin creates a client_id and client_secret under Settings > Integrations and exchanges them at Navan's OAuth token endpoint for a short-lived bearer token that is refreshed on expiry (separate US and EU regional hosts)
Change detection
Navan's Expense API supports webhooks for transaction and expense events; sync engines also poll GET endpoints with date-range and updatedAt filters (createdFrom/createdTo for bookings) to backfill history and reconcile. There is no database-level CDC.
Capabilities

Rate limits
Requests are throttled with HTTP 429 and Navan recommends retrying with exponential backoff; the Expense/Public API must first be enabled per account by Navan.

SingleStore

Integration surface
