Why teams connect AWS Aurora MySQL and SendGrid

Mirror SendGrid's data into AWS Aurora MySQL so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like SendGrid through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in AWS Aurora MySQL.

Stacksync mirrors Unsubscribe Groups, Email Activity, Contacts, List from SendGrid into Databases (schemas), Tables, Rows, Columns in AWS Aurora MySQL and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into SendGrid, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Sync CRM contacts and their custom fields into SendGrid lists so campaign targeting reflects live sales data
  • Write bounces, spam reports, and unsubscribes back to the CRM to keep email opt-in status accurate everywhere
  • Stream row changes from Aurora into SaaS tools via binlog CDC instead of scheduled batch exports.
  • Sync a production Aurora cluster with an analytics database while filtering out sensitive columns.

Read SendGrid with a query

Records from SendGrid are ordinary rows in AWS Aurora MySQL; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate SendGrid from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in AWS Aurora MySQL and Stacksync propagates the change into SendGrid, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in SendGrid arrive as row changes in AWS Aurora MySQL, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora MySQL and SendGrid

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.

AWS Aurora MySQL objects SendGrid objects
Primary keys and indexes Used to match rows across systems and keep incremental syncs efficient. List Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Views Can serve as read-only sync sources for derived or filtered datasets. Segments Query-based contact groups whose membership SendGrid computes from contact fields.
Foreign keys Express relationships that syncs preserve when mapping to related objects elsewhere. Categories Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Stored procedures and triggers Existing database logic keeps firing on rows written by a sync. Senders Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Databases (schemas) Logical namespaces that scope which tables a sync connection can see. Single Sends One-off marketing campaigns whose stats are read back for reporting.
Tables The primary sync unit; each table maps one-to-one to a table or object in the paired system. Unsubscribe Groups Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.

How the AWS Aurora MySQL and SendGrid connectors work

AWS Aurora MySQL

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL-compatible), standard MySQL drivers and JDBC
Authentication
Database credentials, optionally AWS IAM database authentication, over TLS
Change detection
Log-based CDC via the MySQL binary log (binlog), with polling on timestamp columns as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC

SendGrid

Integration surface
REST API (v3)
Authentication
API key (create in SendGrid Settings > API Keys with Custom Access / Full Access for the objects to sync; key begins with "SG")
Change detection
Event Webhook posts delivery and engagement events (processed, delivered, open, click, bounce, spam report) to an HTTP endpoint; contact and list changes are detected by polling
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits; contact upserts are batched, asynchronous jobs rather than per-row writes
