Why teams connect Smartrecruiters and Vertica

Land the people and organization records from Smartrecruiters in Vertica as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Smartrecruiters can use them.

Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Smartrecruiters is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in Vertica next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Offers, Users, Approvals, Candidates from Smartrecruiters into tables in Vertica continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Vertica, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Smartrecruiters where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate data from multiple operational databases into Vertica schemas for enterprise BI.
  • 02 Sync CRM accounts and opportunities into Vertica to join with large-scale behavioral or telemetry data.
  • 03 Export Interviews and Offers to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load, offer-acceptance rates, and hiring outcomes.
  • 04 Subscribe to the Webhooks API to react to new applications and status changes in near real time across downstream systems.

Common sync patterns

HR data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

People and organization records from Smartrecruiters arrive in Vertica as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind, replacing hand-built extract jobs.

Headcount and cost joined with everything else

Analysts combine Smartrecruiters's workforce records with finance, product, or operational data already in Vertica for reporting the HR system cannot produce on its own.

Fresh data instead of last night's load

Because changes stream continuously, reports query current workforce data rather than waiting for an overnight load window to finish.

What you can sync between Smartrecruiters and Vertica

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.

Smartrecruiters objects Vertica objects How this pairing syncs
Approvals Approval requests for jobs and offers; requests can be created, retrieved as pending, commented on, and approved or rejected via the Approvals API. Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced datasets by domain or source. Approvals is specific to Smartrecruiters and Schemas to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Tables Columnar tables; the primary read and write targets for syncs. Candidates is specific to Smartrecruiters and Tables to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Projections Sorted, encoded physical copies of table data that the optimizer selects at query time; they affect load and query behavior rather than being addressed directly. Applications is specific to Smartrecruiters and Projections to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Views Logical views used to shape reads for downstream consumers. Jobs is specific to Smartrecruiters and Views to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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). Flex Tables Schema-flexible tables for semi-structured JSON data landed before modeling. Job Postings is specific to Smartrecruiters and Flex Tables to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Interviews Interview types, timeslots, templates, and scheduled interviews with interviewers and times; created, updated, and read for scheduling and interviewer-load analytics. External Tables Data queried in place on files or object storage without loading. Interviews is specific to Smartrecruiters and External Tables to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Smartrecruiters and Vertica

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.

Smartrecruiters Vertica 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 Vertica as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Vertica Smartrecruiters Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Vertica for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No exposed transaction-log CDC.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • Vertica: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by cluster resources, and bulk COPY is preferred over row-by-row writes.
