Why teams connect Affinity and InfluxDB

Treat Affinity like part of your database: its records live in InfluxDB 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 InfluxDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Reminders, Lists, List Entries, Persons from Affinity into Points, Tags, Fields, Retention policies in InfluxDB 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

  • Mirror deal-flow lists into a warehouse or BI tool for pipeline and portfolio reporting.
  • Push enrichment data computed elsewhere into Affinity field values on list entries.
  • Feed alert-relevant thresholds and asset metadata from business systems into InfluxDB tags for richer queries.
  • Sync device and telemetry rollups from InfluxDB into a CRM or ERP so account teams see product usage and fleet health.

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 InfluxDB, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

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

What you can sync between Affinity and InfluxDB

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 InfluxDB objects
Lists Pipelines (deal flow, fundraising, portfolio) that structure most Affinity data; syncs usually target a specific list. Fields The unindexed numeric or string values carried by each point.
List Entries The membership of a person, organization, or opportunity on a list, carrying its list-specific fields. Retention policies Automatic expiry rules that determine how long synced history remains queryable.
Persons Contact records enriched with relationship intelligence, synced with CRMs and outreach tools. Organizations Tenancy scope for tokens and buckets in multi-tenant deployments.
Organizations Company records matched to accounts in other systems by domain. Buckets / databases Named containers with retention settings that scope reads and writes.
Opportunities Deal records tracked on lists and synced with pipeline reporting. Measurements The table-like grouping for points, typically mapped to a synced dataset.
Field Values Custom field data, either global or scoped to a list, mapped field-by-field in syncs. Points Individual time-stamped records, the unit of write via line protocol.
