Why teams connect DuckDB and Insightly

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

Stacksync mirrors Contacts, Organizations, Leads, Opportunities from Insightly into Schemas, Tables, Views, External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) in DuckDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Insightly 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

  • Two-way sync of Insightly contacts and organizations with a marketing automation platform
  • Replicate opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse so RevOps can report on pipeline with SQL
  • Push aggregates computed in DuckDB out to a CRM or business tools so analysis results reach operational systems.
  • Use DuckDB as a transform step: read synced Parquet exports, aggregate with SQL, and write results back to an operational database.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to DuckDB sync onto the matching records in Insightly, 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 Insightly API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Insightly arrive as row changes in DuckDB, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between DuckDB and Insightly

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.

DuckDB objects Insightly objects
External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) Files DuckDB queries in place without loading, common as a sync interchange format. Events Calendar items sync for a complete activity timeline.
Attached databases Additional database files or external systems attached into one session for cross-source queries. Notes Free-text context attaches to synced records for downstream visibility.
Database files Single-file .duckdb databases that jobs read and write directly on disk or object storage. Products Product catalog entries support line-item syncing on opportunities and quotes.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize tables in sync outputs. Custom Fields Per-object custom fields carry enrichment and billing data written from external systems.
Tables Columnar tables created via SQL; the destination for materialized sync data. Contacts Person records sync with marketing and support tools to keep one contact list.
Views SQL views used to shape or filter data for downstream consumers. Organizations Company records map to accounts in ERPs and other CRMs.
