Why teams connect Google AlloyDB and Intercom

Treat Intercom 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 Contacts, Companies, Conversations, Tickets from Intercom into Materialized Views, Indexes, Sequences, Replication Slots in Google AlloyDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Intercom 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

  • Sync contacts and companies bi-directionally with the CRM so support sees deal context and sales sees conversation history
  • Push product usage events from an application database into Intercom to trigger onboarding and retention messages
  • Use logical replication to feed AlloyDB changes into warehouses or event pipelines without batch jobs.
  • Consolidate SaaS data into AlloyDB and serve analytics from its columnar engine without a separate OLAP store.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Intercom API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Intercom 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 Intercom become tables in Google AlloyDB you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Google AlloyDB and Intercom

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.

Google AlloyDB objects Intercom objects
Views Curated projections used as read-only sync sources. Companies Company records group contacts and carry plan and account attributes used in segmentation.
Materialized Views Precomputed aggregates refreshed and synced outward on a schedule. Conversations Support and sales threads sync outward for analytics and CRM context.
Indexes Keep sync key lookups fast on high-volume tables. Tickets Structured ticket records track issues alongside conversational threads.
Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Data Events Behavioral events pushed in from product databases trigger messages and flows.
Replication Slots Logical replication artifacts that back log-based change capture. Custom Data Attributes Typed custom fields on contacts and companies hold synced billing and usage data.
Databases Standard PostgreSQL databases within an AlloyDB cluster that syncs connect to. Tags Labels applied to contacts, companies, and conversations sync for routing and reporting.
