Why teams connect Neo4j and Smartsheet

Mirror Smartsheet's data into Neo4j so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Smartsheet through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Neo4j.

Stacksync mirrors Columns, Cells, Reports, Attachments from Smartsheet into Databases, Users & Roles, Nodes, Relationships in Neo4j and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Smartsheet, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Trigger downstream actions in an operational database when a Row's status Cell changes, using sheet webhooks for near-real-time updates.
  • 02 Two-way sync a project-tracker Sheet's Rows with a Postgres table so engineering works in SQL while project managers stay in Smartsheet.
  • 03 Keep a customer-360 graph continuously updated from ERP, CRM, and support sources.
  • 04 Mirror CRM accounts and contacts into a graph to model buying-group and referral relationships.

Common sync patterns

Automate Smartsheet from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Neo4j and Stacksync propagates the change into Smartsheet, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Smartsheet arrive as row changes in Neo4j, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

What you can sync between Neo4j and Smartsheet

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.

Neo4j objects Smartsheet objects How this pairing syncs
Users & Roles Security principals controlling what an integration credential can query or modify. Reports Read-only roll-ups spanning multiple sheets; pulled into a warehouse for cross-sheet reporting, capped at 50,000 rows. Users & Roles is specific to Neo4j and Reports to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Nodes Entity records (customers, products, accounts) written from source systems as labeled nodes. Attachments Files linked to rows or sheets; posting one carries a 10x rate cost, so bulk file sync is throttled to 30 per minute. Nodes is specific to Neo4j and Attachments to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Relationships Typed, directed edges that carry the connections syncs exist to model. Discussions and Comments Threaded comments on rows and sheets; read out to sync collaboration history or activity into another system. Relationships is specific to Neo4j and Discussions and Comments to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Properties Key-value attributes on both nodes and relationships, mapped from source fields. Users and Groups Account membership and sharing; synced to keep an HR or identity source aligned with sheet and workspace access. Properties is specific to Neo4j and Users and Groups to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Labels Node type markers used to map source tables or objects onto the graph. Sheets The core container; each sheet has typed columns, rows, and a modifiedAt stamp. Stacksync treats a sheet as a table and syncs its rows two-way. Labels is specific to Neo4j and Sheets to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes & Constraints Uniqueness constraints and indexes that make MERGE-based upserts reliable and fast. Rows Records inside a sheet, each with createdAt/modifiedAt and cells keyed by columnId; the primary unit synced to and from external tables. Indexes & Constraints is specific to Neo4j and Rows to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Neo4j and Smartsheet

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.

Neo4j Smartsheet Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Neo4j are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Neo4j Change Data Capture on Enterprise and Aura streams graph changes.

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

Smartsheet Neo4j Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartsheet notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Sheet-scoped webhooks subscribed to *.* events notify on row and cell changes.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Neo4j through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Smartsheet: 300 requests per minute per access token; heavy calls like posting attachments cost 10x (30/min). A 429 returns errorCode 4003, back off ~60s.
