Why teams connect OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Smartsheet

Mirror Smartsheet's data into OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud).

Stacksync mirrors Users and Groups, Sheets, Rows, Columns from Smartsheet into Views, Materialized views, Schemas, Sequences in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 Write changes from SaaS applications back into OCI so PL/SQL-based processes operate on current data.
  • 04 Replicate operational tables from OCI to an analytics warehouse with log-based CDC instead of nightly batch dumps.

Common sync patterns

Read Smartsheet with a query

Records from Smartsheet are ordinary rows in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud); join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Smartsheet from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud), so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) objects Smartsheet objects How this pairing syncs
Sequences Key generators that matter when writing new rows from external systems Discussions and Comments Threaded comments on rows and sheets; read out to sync collaboration history or activity into another system. Sequences is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Discussions and Comments to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
PL/SQL procedures and packages Server-side logic that can react to synced data or transform it in place Users and Groups Account membership and sharing; synced to keep an HR or identity source aligned with sheet and workspace access. PL/SQL procedures and packages is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Users and Groups to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
JSON collections Document-style storage in the converged engine, synced alongside relational tables 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. JSON collections is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Sheets to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Physical table subdivisions relevant when replicating large fact tables Rows Records inside a sheet, each with createdAt/modifiedAt and cells keyed by columnId; the primary unit synced to and from external tables. Partitions is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Rows to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync surface; rows are read and written directly over SQL Columns Define sheet schema and cell type (TEXT_NUMBER, DATE, CONTACT_LIST, PICKLIST, CHECKBOX); read via the API so field mappings can be generated. Tables is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Columns to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used to expose curated subsets to downstream systems Cells Row-by-column values; writes must match the column type and no single cell can exceed 4,000 characters. Views is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Cells to Smartsheet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Smartsheet Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC from redo logs (LogMiner or GoldenGate), or timestamp polling.

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

Smartsheet OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 applied to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • OCI Database (Oracle Cloud): Throughput bounded by instance sizing rather than API quotas.
  • 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.
