Why teams connect Close and Dynamo DB

Treat Close like part of your database: its records live in Dynamo DB 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 Dynamo DB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Custom Fields, Users, Smart Views, Leads from Close into DynamoDB Streams, Global Tables, Tables, Items in Dynamo DB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Close 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

  • Keep Close contacts aligned with a marketing automation platform so outreach lists stay current.
  • Push call, SMS, and email activity data into a warehouse for rep performance and outreach-cadence analysis.
  • Consolidate multi-region Global Tables data into a single reporting store.
  • Replace ad-hoc export scripts with continuous sync driven by DynamoDB Streams.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Close become tables in Dynamo DB you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Dynamo DB sync onto the matching records in Close, 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 Close API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Close and Dynamo DB

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.

Close objects Dynamo DB objects
Custom Fields Org-specific fields on leads, contacts, and opportunities; addressed by stable field ids in syncs. DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records consumed for incremental sync.
Users Sales reps referenced as owners on leads, opportunities, and activities. Global Tables Multi-region replicas relevant when syncs must read from a specific region.
Smart Views Saved lead searches that can scope which records a segment-based sync pulls. Tables The top-level containers a sync targets; each table is addressed independently.
Leads The top-level record in Close; represents a company and holds its contacts, opportunities, and activity history. Items Schemaless records keyed by partition (and optional sort) key, mapped to rows or SaaS objects in syncs.
Contacts People nested under a lead, with emails and phone numbers used for outreach syncs. Attributes Per-item fields, including nested maps and lists, flattened or mapped during sync.
Opportunities Deal records with value, confidence, and status; commonly synced to reporting and billing systems. Partition and Sort Keys The primary key pair used as the match key for bi-directional sync.
