Why teams connect Apollo.io and TimescaleDB

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

Stacksync mirrors Tasks and calls, Custom fields, Contacts, Accounts from Apollo.io into Chunks, Continuous Aggregates, Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views in TimescaleDB 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

  • Deduplicate contacts across Apollo and the CRM by syncing on email as the match key.
  • Push CRM opportunity stages back into Apollo so reps see pipeline context while sequencing.
  • Keep device or asset reference tables bi-directionally in sync between TimescaleDB and an ERP.
  • Consolidate metrics from several services into one hypertable to serve a single reporting layer.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to TimescaleDB sync onto the matching records in Apollo.io, 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 Apollo.io API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

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

What you can sync between Apollo.io 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.

Apollo.io objects TimescaleDB objects
Tasks and calls Rep activity records synced for activity reporting and coaching workflows. Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems.
Custom fields Account- and contact-level custom attributes mapped field-by-field in a sync. Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data.
Contacts People saved to your Apollo account, synced with emails, phone numbers, and enrichment fields. Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers.
Accounts Company records with firmographic attributes, matched to CRM accounts during sync. Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment.
People (database records) Prospects from Apollo's global database, pulled into downstream systems once enriched or saved. Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs.
Sequences Outreach cadences (emailer campaigns in the API); enrollment status is read to track which contacts are being worked. Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly.
What ships with Apollo.io ⇄ TimescaleDB

At scale

Event queues

Handle millions of events per minute without losing a single Apollo.io or TimescaleDB record.

Observability

Monitoring

Track your Apollo.io ⇄ TimescaleDB sync health, view errors, and replay failed events in one click.

Trading partners

EDI

Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions between Apollo.io and TimescaleDB.

How the Apollo.io and TimescaleDB 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

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
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
