Why teams connect PagerDuty and TiDB

Keep TiDB and PagerDuty in step: the rows in your database and the Services, Users, Teams, Schedules your engineering tools track stay consistent in real time, in both directions.

TiDB is where your application's durable data lives; PagerDuty is where engineering and operations teams track the issues, events, messages, or identities that run alongside it. The two overlap constantly, a row should open a ticket, an alert should land as a record, a user in one should exist in the other, but bridging them today means per-tool integration code: auth, webhooks, pagination, rate limits, and retries, built and maintained separately for every tool.

Stacksync syncs Databases, Tables, Views, Columns in TiDB with Services, Users, Teams, Schedules in PagerDuty field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set, so the database and the tooling around it never drift apart.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync between TiDB tables and SaaS tools so operational edits made in either system converge
  • 02 Stream row-level changes to a warehouse or Kafka via CDC for near-real-time analytics
  • 03 Write Schedules and Escalation Policies from a workforce tool or source-of-truth spreadsheet so rotations and overrides stay consistent across teams.
  • 04 Mirror Services and their integration keys with a CMDB or service catalog so ownership and tier metadata stay aligned in both directions.

Common sync patterns

Turn rows into the records your tools track

A new or changed row in TiDB creates or updates the matching record in PagerDuty, whether that is an issue, an event, a message, or a user, so the tool reflects the database without a custom API job.

Land tool activity as queryable rows

Records and events from PagerDuty arrive in TiDB as rows, so tickets, alerts, messages, or identity changes become joinable data your services and reports read directly.

One integration pattern instead of per-tool API code

Read and write the synced tables in TiDB and Stacksync keeps PagerDuty current, replacing the auth, webhooks, rate limits, and retry logic you would otherwise maintain for each tool.

What you can sync between PagerDuty 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.

PagerDuty objects TiDB objects How this pairing syncs
Incidents Core records with status of triggered, acknowledged, or resolved plus urgency and assignments; created, updated, and resolved two-way, with V3 webhooks firing on each transition. Views Logical views for shaping reads before syncing outward. Incidents is specific to PagerDuty and Views to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Services Technical services that group incidents and hold integration keys; read and written two-way, with service.created, service.updated, and service.deleted webhook events. Columns MySQL-compatible types mapped to fields in the paired system. Services is specific to PagerDuty and Columns to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Responders with contact methods and notification rules; provisioned and updated two-way to keep the on-call roster aligned with an HRIS or identity provider. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep incremental sync queries efficient. Users is specific to PagerDuty and Indexes to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Groupings of users, services, and escalation policies; synced two-way so membership mirrors org structure from an IdP or HRIS. Sequences Server-side ID generation relevant when external systems write rows. Teams is specific to PagerDuty and Sequences to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schedules On-call rotations built from layers and overrides; read and written so calendar or workforce tools can drive who is on call. Databases MySQL-style schemas addressed by any MySQL-compatible client. Schedules is specific to PagerDuty and Databases to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Escalation Policies Ordered rules routing incidents to users and schedules; read and written two-way to codify paging logic from a source of truth. Tables Row data stored in TiKV; the primary unit for reads, writes, and CDC. Escalation Policies is specific to PagerDuty and Tables to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between PagerDuty 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.

PagerDuty TiDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionPagerDuty notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. V3 webhook subscriptions push incident.* and service.* events (triggered, acknowledged, escalated, resolved, created, updated).

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • PagerDuty: REST API allows 960 requests per minute per token and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; the Events API is rate-limited separately per integration key.
  • TiDB: Throughput scales with cluster size rather than fixed API quotas.

How the PagerDuty and TiDB connectors work

PagerDuty

Integration surface
REST API v2 (plus Events API v2 for inbound alerts)
Authentication
REST API token via the Authorization: Token header (account-level for full access or user-level scoped to the user's permissions), or OAuth 2.0 (Authorization Code / PKCE); the Events API v2 uses a per-service routing (integration) key
Change detection
V3 webhook subscriptions push incident.* and service.* events (triggered, acknowledged, escalated, resolved, created, updated); list endpoints also support polling with updated_at and since/until windows
Capabilities

Rate limits
REST API allows 960 requests per minute per token and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; the Events API is rate-limited separately per integration key.
