Why teams connect Apollo.io and Google Cloud Spanner

Treat Apollo.io like part of your database: its records live in Google Cloud Spanner 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 Google Cloud Spanner, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Sequences, Deals (Opportunities), Tasks and calls, Custom fields from Apollo.io into Databases, Tables, Rows, Interleaved tables in Google Cloud Spanner with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Apollo.io 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

  • Push CRM opportunity stages back into Apollo so reps see pipeline context while sequencing.
  • Land sequence enrollment status and outcomes in a warehouse for outbound performance reporting.
  • Use change streams to feed near-real-time copies of operational tables into an analytics warehouse.
  • Run a two-way sync between Spanner and a SaaS tool so edits made by ops teams land back in the application database.

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Apollo.io arrive as row changes in Google Cloud Spanner, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Apollo.io become tables in Google Cloud Spanner you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Apollo.io and Google Cloud Spanner

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.

Apollo.io objects Google Cloud Spanner objects
Contacts People saved to your Apollo account, synced with emails, phone numbers, and enrichment fields. Interleaved tables Child rows physically co-located with parents; synced as related records.
Accounts Company records with firmographic attributes, matched to CRM accounts during sync. Secondary indexes Used to make incremental read queries efficient on non-key columns.
People (database records) Prospects from Apollo's global database, pulled into downstream systems once enriched or saved. Change streams Capture inserts, updates, and deletes for log-style change data capture.
Sequences Outreach cadences (emailer campaigns in the API); enrollment status is read to track which contacts are being worked. Views Read-only projections useful for shaping data before it leaves Spanner.
Deals (Opportunities) Pipeline records that can be read and written to keep Apollo aligned with the CRM of record. Databases Top-level containers that scope schema and sync configuration.
Tasks and calls Rep activity records synced for activity reporting and coaching workflows. Tables Relational tables mapped one-to-one to sync targets.

How the Apollo.io and Google Cloud Spanner connectors work

Apollo.io

Integration surface
REST API
Authentication
API key (passed in request headers); master keys unlock account-wide endpoints
Change detection
Polling on updated-at timestamps; webhook callbacks exist only for delivering asynchronous enrichment results, not as a general change-event stream
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Rate limits and enrichment credits vary by plan; bulk endpoints are throttled separately from single-record calls

Google Cloud Spanner

Integration surface
gRPC/REST client API with SQL query surface (GoogleSQL and PostgreSQL-interface dialects)
Authentication
Google Cloud IAM (service accounts)
Change detection
Change streams (log-style CDC), or timestamp-based polling queries
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Throughput is bounded by the instance's provisioned compute capacity rather than a fixed API quota.
