Why teams connect Drift and Google AlloyDB

Treat Drift like part of your database: its records live in Google AlloyDB 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 Google AlloyDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Meetings, Contacts, Conversations, Messages from Drift into Replication Slots, Databases, Schemas, Tables in Google AlloyDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Drift 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

  • Enrich Drift contact and account records with firmographic or product data from an internal database to sharpen playbook targeting.
  • Sync meetings booked in Drift to CRM activities so pipeline attribution stays accurate.
  • Migrate workloads from self-managed Postgres while keeping existing syncs pointed at a compatible endpoint.
  • Mirror CRM objects into AlloyDB tables so product and internal tools query customer data with plain SQL.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Drift arrive as row changes in Google AlloyDB, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Drift become tables in Google AlloyDB you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Google AlloyDB sync onto the matching records in Drift, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

What you can sync between Drift and Google AlloyDB

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.

Drift objects Google AlloyDB objects
Playbooks Bot flows that generate conversations and qualify visitors. Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows.
Meetings Meetings booked through Drift, synced to CRM as sales activities. Replication Slots Logical replication artifacts that back log-based change capture.
Contacts Visitor and lead records created or matched from chat identities; the main CRM-sync object. Databases Standard PostgreSQL databases within an AlloyDB cluster that syncs connect to.
Conversations Chat threads with status and participants; the center of Drift's data model. Schemas Namespaces used to separate synced SaaS data from application tables.
Messages Individual messages within a conversation, used for transcript and intent analysis. Tables Primary read/write target for bi-directional sync with CRMs and other systems.
Accounts Company records used for account-based routing and targeting. Views Curated projections used as read-only sync sources.
