Why teams connect Render Postgres and Sharepoint

Keep Render Postgres and Sharepoint in step: a row in Render Postgres for every file in Sharepoint, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.

A database holds structured records; a storage system holds the files those records depend on, such as contracts, images, exports, uploads, and documents. The two describe the same things from opposite sides: a row in Render Postgres says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Sharepoint holds the bytes. Linked only by a hand-kept path or a one-off script, the two drift the moment a file is renamed, moved, or deleted and the record still points at where it used to be.

Stacksync syncs Indexes and Constraints, Tables, Views, Materialized Views in Render Postgres with Sites, Lists, List items, Drive items (document libraries) in Sharepoint bi-directionally and in real time. File attributes, including name, path or object key, size, type, modified time, owner, and tags or custom properties, map field by field to columns on the matching row, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds. New files appear as rows, metadata edits travel in the direction you choose, and deletes stay consistent, with conflict rules you set in place of nightly reconciliation scripts.

Common use cases

  • 01 Capture row-level changes via logical replication and propagate them to a warehouse or another database in near real time.
  • 02 Serve as the operational read/write store behind internal tools while Stacksync keeps it consistent with SaaS systems of record.
  • 03 Stream list and library changes through delta query and change-notification webhooks into a warehouse for audit, access-review, and reporting.
  • 04 Two-way sync SharePoint List items with a database table so internal apps read and write structured records in SQL without calling the SharePoint API directly.

Common sync patterns

File metadata kept in step

Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Render Postgres write back to the matching file's metadata in Sharepoint, and metadata changed in Sharepoint updates the row, so the two never disagree about a file.

Records that point at documents

Where a record in Render Postgres references a file in Sharepoint, such as a contract, an image, an export, or an upload, the reference, path, and status stay consistent as files are renamed, moved, or replaced, so stored links keep resolving.

A landing zone for incoming files

Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Sharepoint become rows in Render Postgres as they land, so a database-driven process can pick them up without polling the storage system's API.

What you can sync between Render Postgres and Sharepoint

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.

Render Postgres objects Sharepoint objects How this pairing syncs
Materialized Views Precomputed query results refreshed on demand; read for fast reporting tables that downstream systems can consume. Permissions and sharing Role assignments and sharing links on sites, list items, and drive items; read and written to manage access, requiring Sites.Manage.All or Sites.FullControl.All scopes. Materialized Views is specific to Render Postgres and Permissions and sharing to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces that organize tables per app or environment; sync targets are scoped per schema to keep synced data isolated and tidy. Site pages Modern site pages via /sites/{id}/pages; read page content, layout, and metadata for indexing and content governance. Schemas is specific to Render Postgres and Site pages to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns and Types Full Postgres type system including JSONB and arrays; field mappings preserve native types instead of flattening to strings. Sites SharePoint site collections and subsites via /sites; read site properties and discover the document libraries (drives) and lists each site contains, addressed by hostname and site path or site ID. Columns and Types is specific to Render Postgres and Sites to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes and Constraints Primary keys, unique constraints, and foreign keys; unique keys drive idempotent upserts and conflict resolution during sync. Lists Custom lists and libraries via /sites/{id}/lists; create and read lists along with their columns and content types so a target system can mirror or provision list definitions. Indexes and Constraints is specific to Render Postgres and Lists to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables with full column typing; synced two-way with CRMs, ERPs, and SaaS apps so application data is queryable as plain Postgres rows. List items Rows in a SharePoint list via /lists/{id}/items with a fields facet of column values; full create, read, update, and delete, synced two-way with database rows. Tables is specific to Render Postgres and List items to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Saved queries exposed as read-only relations; read out to BI tools or downstream syncs without duplicating transformation logic. Drive items (document libraries) Files and folders in a library's drive via /drives and /drive/root; upload, download, move, delete, and read per-item metadata, synced two-way with a store. Views is specific to Render Postgres and Drive items (document libraries) to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Render Postgres and Sharepoint

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.

Render Postgres Sharepoint Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Render Postgres are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Logical replication via WAL and replication slots for change data capture when enabled on the instance, with timestamp or cursor-based polling as the.

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

Sharepoint Render Postgres Sub-second propagation

DetectionSharepoint notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Render Postgres: No API rate limits — throughput is bounded by the instance's plan (CPU, RAM, connection limit); connection pooling is recommended since managed plans cap concurrent connections.
  • Sharepoint: SharePoint Online throttles per app, returning HTTP 429 (or 503) with a Retry-After header in seconds and IETF RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, and RateLimit-Reset headers; throttled requests still count toward limits, so clients honor the greater of Retry-After and RateLimit-Reset with exponential backoff.

Render Postgres

Integration surface
PostgreSQL wire protocol (managed Postgres on Render)
Authentication
Standard Postgres connection string — host, port, database, user, password with TLS; Render provides internal and external connection URLs and IP allowlisting

Rate limits
No API rate limits — throughput is bounded by the instance's plan (CPU, RAM, connection limit); connection pooling is recommended since managed plans cap concurrent connections.

Sharepoint

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (graph.microsoft.com/v1.0 and beta) covering SharePoint sites, lists, list items, columns, content types, and document-library drives and drive items; plus the classic SharePoint REST API (_api/web) and CSOM. Supports Graph JSON $batch (up to 20 requests per call).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID). An app registration holds delegated or application (app-only) scopes such as Sites.Read.All, Sites.ReadWrite.All, Sites.Selected, Sites.Manage.All, or Sites.FullControl.All, plus Files.ReadWrite.All for drive content; application permissions require tenant admin consent.
Change detection
Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last deltaLink; change-notification subscriptions (push webhooks) POST near-real-time notifications for list and drive/root changes to a notification URL and must be renewed before they expire. Classic SharePoint list webhooks are also available.
