Why teams connect Scaleway Postgres and Smartrecruiters

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: Scaleway Postgres and Smartrecruiters share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

Smartrecruiters 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: Approvals, Candidates, Applications, Jobs in Smartrecruiters need to exist as queryable Sequences, Columns, Tables, Views 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 Sequences, Columns, Tables, Views in Scaleway Postgres with Approvals, Candidates, Applications, Jobs in Smartrecruiters field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Smartrecruiters 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 Back internal tools with the same Postgres instance while Stacksync keeps it consistent with external systems
  • 02 Keep an EU-hosted Postgres as the system of record while distributing data to US-hosted SaaS applications
  • 03 Write enriched or sourced Candidates from external sourcing tools into SmartRecruiters and keep contact fields refreshed as data changes.
  • 04 Stream Jobs and Job Postings into a reporting database for requisition, funnel, and time-to-fill dashboards.

Common sync patterns

Reporting and analytics on current data

Approvals, Candidates, Applications, Jobs replicate into Scaleway Postgres where they join operational tables, so headcount, roles, and status reports run on the live state without manual pulls.

Org and structure stay aligned

Groups, departments, managers, and reporting lines from Smartrecruiters stay consistent in Scaleway Postgres, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in Scaleway Postgres write onto the matching record in Smartrecruiters where those fields are writable, keeping the people system enriched.

What you can sync between Scaleway Postgres and Smartrecruiters

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.

Scaleway Postgres objects Smartrecruiters objects How this pairing syncs
Columns Postgres-native types, including JSONB and arrays, are mapped to fields in the paired system. Users Company users (recruiters, hiring managers) with roles, access groups, and activation state; read and written via the User Management API. Columns is specific to Scaleway Postgres and Users to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Primary sync unit; each table maps to an object or table on the other side of the sync. Approvals Approval requests for jobs and offers; requests can be created, retrieved as pending, commented on, and approved or rejected via the Approvals API. Tables is specific to Scaleway Postgres and Approvals to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only sources for shaping data before it leaves the database. Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, attachments, custom properties, and consent; created, updated, and searched via the Candidates API, often populated from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Views is specific to Scaleway Postgres and Candidates to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Precomputed result sets that can be read on a schedule for downstream syncs. Applications Links a Candidate to a Job and carries the current hiring status and source; created and advanced through statuses (screening, interview, offer, hired, rejected) via the Application API. Materialized views is specific to Scaleway Postgres and Applications to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespace tables so multiple applications or environments can be synced selectively. Jobs Requisitions (positions) with openings, departments, locations, and hiring team; created, patched, and read out for requisition and time-to-fill reporting via the Jobs API. Schemas is specific to Scaleway Postgres and Jobs to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences Generate primary keys; sync tooling must respect them when writing rows. Job Postings Job ads and publications pushed to the career site and job boards; created and managed via the job publication endpoints (rate-limited to 2 requests/sec). Sequences is specific to Scaleway Postgres and Job Postings to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Scaleway Postgres and Smartrecruiters

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.

Scaleway Postgres Smartrecruiters 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 Smartrecruiters through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Smartrecruiters Scaleway Postgres Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartrecruiters notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks API — subscribe to events (new application, candidate updated, status changed) delivered with a signing secret and retrievable callback logs.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Scaleway Postgres: Throughput is bounded by instance size and connection limits rather than API quotas.
  • Smartrecruiters: Per API credential: most endpoints allow up to 10 requests/sec (job publication and offer documents 2/sec), plus a concurrency limiter of up to 8 simultaneous requests (GET /candidates capped at 1). Exceeding returns 429; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit/Remaining and concurrent-limit headers.
