Why teams connect 6sense and TimescaleDB

Treat 6sense like part of your database: its records live in TimescaleDB as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

6sense is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into TimescaleDB, so TimescaleDB always reflects the current state of 6sense — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in TimescaleDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Common use cases

  • Feed in-market account lists to sales engagement tools to start sequences automatically.
  • Sync 6sense buying stage and intent scores onto CRM accounts so sellers prioritize in-market targets.
  • Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
  • Replicate subscription and billing events from operational Postgres tables into Timescale hypertables for time-series analysis.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from 6sense become tables in TimescaleDB you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to TimescaleDB sync onto the matching records in 6sense, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the 6sense API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between 6sense and TimescaleDB

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.

6sense objects TimescaleDB objects
Buying Stage Scores Model-predicted stage per account, synced onto CRM records for prioritization. Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly.
Intent Signals Keyword-level research activity used to flag in-market accounts. Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems.
People / Contacts Persona and contact data surfaced for accounts, used to build outreach lists. Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data.
Reach Scores Model scores reflecting the level and recency of outreach to an account or contact, used to prioritize follow-up. Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers.
Accounts Company records enriched with firmographics and intent data, matched to CRM accounts. Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment.
Segments Dynamic account lists built from intent and fit criteria, read out to drive targeting. Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs.

How the 6sense and TimescaleDB connectors work

6sense

Integration surface
REST API
Authentication
API key (token passed in request headers)
Change detection
Polling; scores and segment membership are typically refreshed on the platform's model update cadence
Capabilities
read
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by contracted API package

TimescaleDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must be remapped to the parent — or timestamp-based polling on time columns; regular Postgres tables replicate through standard logical replication
Capabilities

Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
