Why teams connect Microsoft 365 and OpenSearch

Mirror Microsoft 365's data into OpenSearch 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 OpenSearch.

Stacksync mirrors Calendar Events, Contacts, OneDrive Files (driveItems), SharePoint Sites & Lists from Microsoft 365 into Ingest pipelines, Data streams, Snapshots, Indexes in OpenSearch 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

  • Sync SharePoint lists with operational databases so business users edit in SharePoint while systems read SQL.
  • Archive mail and file metadata into a warehouse for compliance and activity analytics.
  • Index support tickets and activity logs from SaaS tools for operational dashboards.
  • Backfill or rebuild indexes from a database after mapping changes without hand-written ETL.

Automate Microsoft 365 from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in OpenSearch and Stacksync propagates the change into Microsoft 365, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Microsoft 365 arrive as row changes in OpenSearch, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

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.

What you can sync between Microsoft 365 and OpenSearch

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.

Microsoft 365 objects OpenSearch objects
SharePoint Sites & Lists List items read and written like lightweight database tables. Documents JSON records written via the index and bulk APIs and read via search queries
Teams Team and membership data provisioned from upstream systems. Index aliases Stable names over rotating indexes, used for zero-downtime reindex during backfills
Planner & To Do Tasks Task items synced with project and work-management tools. Index templates Mapping and settings presets applied to new indexes a sync creates
Users Entra ID user accounts synced with HR and identity systems. Ingest pipelines Server-side processors that transform documents as they are written
Groups Microsoft 365 and security groups kept aligned with org structure and access rules. Data streams Append-oriented time-series storage for logs and events pushed from source systems
Mail Messages Exchange Online messages read for logging, archiving, or activity capture. Snapshots Backup artifacts, relevant when reseeding an index from a repository
