Why teams connect Outreach and TiDB

Treat Outreach like part of your database: its records live in TiDB 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 TiDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Sequences, Sequence states, Mailings, Calls from Outreach into Views, Columns, Indexes, Sequences in TiDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Outreach 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 Enroll leads in sequences automatically by writing sequence-state records when a lead crosses a scoring threshold in the warehouse.
  • 02 Pull mailing, call, and task activity into a database for engagement analytics beyond native reports.
  • 03 Stream row-level changes to a warehouse or Kafka via CDC for near-real-time analytics
  • 04 Serve mixed transactional and analytical workloads on synced data using TiFlash columnar replicas

Common sync patterns

Product events onto CRM records

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

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Outreach API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

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

What you can sync between Outreach and TiDB

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.

Outreach objects TiDB objects How this pairing syncs
Sequences Multi-step cadences; synced as reference data for enrollment automation Sequences Server-side ID generation relevant when external systems write rows. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Mailings Sent emails with engagement data, pulled for activity analytics Indexes Secondary indexes that keep incremental sync queries efficient. Mailings is specific to Outreach and Indexes to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calls Logged call records synced into engagement reporting Databases MySQL-style schemas addressed by any MySQL-compatible client. Calls is specific to Outreach and Databases to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tasks Rep action items mirrored between Outreach and the CRM Tables Row data stored in TiKV; the primary unit for reads, writes, and CDC. Tasks is specific to Outreach and Tables to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Opportunities Deal records used to tie engagement to pipeline outcomes Views Logical views for shaping reads before syncing outward. Opportunities is specific to Outreach and Views to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Seat holders used to resolve ownership on synced records Columns MySQL-compatible types mapped to fields in the paired system. Users is specific to Outreach and Columns to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Outreach and TiDB

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.

Outreach TiDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionOutreach notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions on resource create, update, and destroy events, plus polling.

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

TiDB Outreach Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in TiDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via TiCDC, which captures row changes from TiKV and streams them to downstream sinks.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Outreach: Subject to per-user hourly rate limits.
  • TiDB: Throughput scales with cluster size rather than fixed API quotas.
