Why teams connect Affinity and Dynamo DB

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

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 Dynamo DB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Field Values, Notes, Interactions, Reminders from Affinity into Global Tables, Tables, Items, Attributes in Dynamo DB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Affinity with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Sync notes and reminders into project or task systems used outside the deal team.
  • Mirror deal-flow lists into a warehouse or BI tool for pipeline and portfolio reporting.
  • Replace ad-hoc export scripts with continuous sync driven by DynamoDB Streams.
  • Stream item changes from DynamoDB application tables into a Postgres or warehouse copy for SQL analytics.

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Affinity arrive as row changes in Dynamo DB, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Affinity become tables in Dynamo DB you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Affinity and Dynamo DB

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.

Affinity objects Dynamo DB objects
Field Values Custom field data, either global or scoped to a list, mapped field-by-field in syncs. Attributes Per-item fields, including nested maps and lists, flattened or mapped during sync.
Notes Meeting and call notes synced for record-keeping in other systems. Partition and Sort Keys The primary key pair used as the match key for bi-directional sync.
Interactions Automatically captured emails and meetings, read for activity reporting. Global Secondary Indexes Alternate access paths used when sync queries filter on non-key attributes.
Reminders Follow-up tasks associated with people and organizations. DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records consumed for incremental sync.
Lists Pipelines (deal flow, fundraising, portfolio) that structure most Affinity data; syncs usually target a specific list. Global Tables Multi-region replicas relevant when syncs must read from a specific region.
List Entries The membership of a person, organization, or opportunity on a list, carrying its list-specific fields. Tables The top-level containers a sync targets; each table is addressed independently.
