Why teams connect Azure Cosmos DB and Microsoft 365

Mirror Microsoft 365's data into Azure Cosmos DB 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 Microsoft 365 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 Azure Cosmos DB.

Stacksync mirrors Contacts, OneDrive Files (driveItems), SharePoint Sites & Lists, Teams from Microsoft 365 into Stored procedures and triggers, Databases, Containers, Items (JSON documents) in Azure Cosmos DB 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 Microsoft 365, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Sync SharePoint lists with operational databases so business users edit in SharePoint while systems read SQL.
  • Archive mail and file metadata into a warehouse for compliance and activity analytics.
  • Two-way sync between a Cosmos DB-backed product catalog and a PIM or commerce platform.
  • Consolidate documents from multiple containers into a single reporting store.

Read Microsoft 365 with a query

Records from Microsoft 365 are ordinary rows in Azure Cosmos DB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Microsoft 365 from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Azure Cosmos DB and Stacksync propagates the change into Microsoft 365, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Microsoft 365 arrive as row changes in Azure Cosmos DB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between Azure Cosmos DB and Microsoft 365

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.

Azure Cosmos DB objects Microsoft 365 objects
Change feed entries Ordered record of inserts and updates per partition, consumed for incremental sync. Planner & To Do Tasks Task items synced with project and work-management tools.
Stored procedures and triggers Server-side logic scoped to a partition; relevant when writes must respect existing validation. Users Entra ID user accounts synced with HR and identity systems.
Databases Top-level namespaces that scope containers and throughput provisioning. Groups Microsoft 365 and security groups kept aligned with org structure and access rules.
Containers The unit of partitioning and throughput; each container maps to a synced collection. Mail Messages Exchange Online messages read for logging, archiving, or activity capture.
Items (JSON documents) Schema-flexible JSON records read and written during sync; nested structures are flattened or mapped as needed. Calendar Events Events synced with scheduling tools and CRMs for meeting visibility.
Partition keys Determine data distribution and must be included on writes for the sync to route items correctly. Contacts Personal and org contacts kept consistent with CRM contact records.
