Why teams connect Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres
Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: Scaleway Postgres and Paylocity share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.
Paylocity is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. Scaleway Postgres is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Deductions (Pay Setup), Earnings (Pay Setup), Local and State Taxes, Direct Deposit in Paylocity need to exist as queryable Schemas, Sequences, Columns, Tables in Scaleway Postgres before an app can act on them. When that bridge is a nightly export or a hand-run CSV, every downstream system spends the day working from a roster that has already moved on.
Stacksync syncs Schemas, Sequences, Columns, Tables in Scaleway Postgres with Deductions (Pay Setup), Earnings (Pay Setup), Local and State Taxes, Direct Deposit in Paylocity field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Paylocity typically owns identity and org attributes, while operational or computed values can flow back the other way — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent, matching records on a stable key and resolving conflicts by rules you set.
The result is one live picture of the workforce on both sides: HR keeps its source of truth, and the database keeps a current mirror that internal apps, reports, and access controls can trust without a batch window in between.
Common use cases
- 01 Run a two-way sync between Scaleway Postgres and SaaS tools so edits made in either system converge on the same rows
- 02 Replicate the application database into a warehouse for analytics without writing custom pipelines
- 03 Read Pay Statements and Direct Deposit allocations into a Postgres or warehouse database for labor-cost, GL, and headcount reporting in SQL.
- 04 React to the Employee Change webhook to pull the updated Employee record and propagate title, location, or manager changes to downstream apps within minutes.
Common sync patterns
Mirror people records into the database
Records maintained in Paylocity land as queryable Schemas, Sequences, Columns, Tables in Scaleway Postgres, so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.
One directory of record
When a person record is added, changed, or deactivated in either system, the matching row in the other stays current, ending dual maintenance.
Reporting and analytics on current data
Deductions (Pay Setup), Earnings (Pay Setup), Local and State Taxes, Direct Deposit replicate into Scaleway Postgres where they join operational tables, so headcount, roles, and status reports run on the live state without manual pulls.
What you can sync between Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres
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.
| Paylocity objects | Scaleway Postgres objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Company Codes Read-only reference codes and descriptions (cost centers, departments, positions) used to validate field mappings on employee writes. | Materialized views Precomputed result sets that can be read on a schedule for downstream syncs. | Company Codes is specific to Paylocity and Materialized views to Scaleway Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Custom Fields Read-only company-specific custom fields returned by category, used to enrich the employee record downstream. | Schemas Namespace tables so multiple applications or environments can be synced selectively. | Custom Fields is specific to Paylocity and Schemas to Scaleway Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Employees Core HR record keyed by companyId + employeeId; two-way via Create New Employee (POST) and Update Employee (PATCH), plus Get Employee / Get All Employees for reads. | Sequences Generate primary keys; sync tooling must respect them when writing rows. | Employees is specific to Paylocity and Sequences to Scaleway Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Onboarding Create Employee Onboarding pushes new-hire data into Paylocity's onboarding workflow; Get Onboarding Status reads back partner onboarding progress. Write-in for hires from an ATS. | Columns Postgres-native types, including JSONB and arrays, are mapped to fields in the paired system. | Onboarding is specific to Paylocity and Columns to Scaleway Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Deductions (Pay Setup) Recurring deduction codes at the employee level; two-way via Upsert Deduction and Delete, with Get Deduction / Get All Deductions for reads. | Tables Primary sync unit; each table maps to an object or table on the other side of the sync. | Deductions (Pay Setup) is specific to Paylocity and Tables to Scaleway Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Earnings (Pay Setup) Recurring earning codes at the employee level; two-way via Upsert Earning and Delete, with Get All Earnings and Get by earning code for reads. | Views Read-only sources for shaping data before it leaves the database. | Earnings (Pay Setup) is specific to Paylocity and Views to Scaleway Postgres — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres
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.
Paylocity Scaleway Postgres Sub-second propagation
DetectionPaylocity notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL.
DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Scaleway Postgres as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
Scaleway Postgres Paylocity Sub-second propagation
DetectionChanges in Scaleway Postgres are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication where the managed instance permits it.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Paylocity through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Paylocity: 25 requests per second (1,500 per minute); exceeding it returns HTTP 429. Every path is scoped to a Paylocity-assigned companyId (a company code, not a UUID).
- Scaleway Postgres: Throughput is bounded by instance size and connection limits rather than API quotas.

How the Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres connectors work
Paylocity
- Integration surface
- REST API (v1 and v2), JSON payloads
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 client credentials via the Paylocity Identity Provider (/IdentityServer/connect/token) with the WebLinkAPI scope; access tokens expire after one hour and API access must be enabled by Paylocity for the company
- Change detection
- Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL; payloads carry only companyId and employeeId, so the receiver calls the relevant API to fetch changed values. Scheduled polling is used for objects without webhooks.

FAQ
Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Paylocity's Company Codes and Custom Fields), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Scaleway Postgres: Scaleway operates data centers in European regions, which matters for teams with EU data residency requirements. Paylocity: Webhook payloads contain only companyId and employeeId with no field-level diff, so a sync must call the Employee, Deduction, or Earning endpoints after each notification to read the changed values. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Paylocity–Scaleway Postgres integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Paylocity and Scaleway Postgres. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Paylocity: Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL; payloads carry only companyId and employeeId, so the receiver calls the relevant API to fetch changed values. Scheduled polling is used for objects without webhooks. On Scaleway Postgres: Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication where the managed instance permits it; otherwise timestamp or query-based polling. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
