Why teams connect Azure SQL Database and Microsoft 365

Mirror Microsoft 365's data into Azure SQL Database 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 SQL Database.

Stacksync mirrors Groups, Mail Messages, Calendar Events, Contacts from Microsoft 365 into Rows and columns, Stored procedures, Change tracking / CDC tables, Tables in Azure SQL Database 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

  • Archive mail and file metadata into a warehouse for compliance and activity analytics.
  • Keep CRM contacts and Microsoft 365 contacts aligned in both directions.
  • Replicate Azure SQL tables to a warehouse without building custom CDC pipelines.
  • Consolidate data from several line-of-business apps into one Azure SQL database as an integration hub.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Microsoft 365 with a query

Records from Microsoft 365 are ordinary rows in Azure SQL Database; 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 SQL Database and Stacksync propagates the change into Microsoft 365, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between Azure SQL Database 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 SQL Database objects Microsoft 365 objects
Rows and columns Standard relational records with typed columns; primary keys anchor upserts. Teams Team and membership data provisioned from upstream systems.
Stored procedures Existing business logic that some teams invoke on write instead of direct table inserts. Planner & To Do Tasks Task items synced with project and work-management tools.
Change tracking / CDC tables System-maintained change records used to drive incremental sync. Users Entra ID user accounts synced with HR and identity systems.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map one-to-one to records in the paired system. Groups Microsoft 365 and security groups kept aligned with org structure and access rules.
Views Read-only projections used when the sync should expose a curated shape rather than raw tables. Mail Messages Exchange Online messages read for logging, archiving, or activity capture.
Schemas Namespaces that organize tables and control which objects a sync user can reach. Calendar Events Events synced with scheduling tools and CRMs for meeting visibility.
