Why teams connect MySQL and Pigment

Work with Pigment's financial data straight from MySQL: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Tables, Scenarios, Data imports, Users and permissions from Pigment into Columns, Primary and Unique Keys, JSON Columns, Stored Procedures in MySQL and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against MySQL, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Pigment with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • Export approved budgets and forecasts back to a warehouse or Postgres for downstream reporting.
  • Keep dimension lists such as departments and cost centers consistent with master data in the ERP.
  • Feed a warehouse from MySQL continuously using binlog-based capture instead of nightly dumps
  • Two-way sync between a MySQL application database and a CRM so operational records and sales records stay identical

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on MySQL; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Pigment.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in MySQL propagate into Pigment, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Pigment appear in MySQL as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

What you can sync between MySQL and Pigment

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.

MySQL objects Pigment objects
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Tables Row-based transactional data loaded into models from source systems
Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Scenarios Versions such as budget, forecast, and actuals that give exported figures their context
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. Data imports Scheduled loads that bring actuals from ERPs, CRMs, and HRIS into the model
JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. Users and permissions Access controls governing which model areas a sync can touch
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Applications Planning models organized by domain such as finance, sales, or workforce
Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Metrics Multidimensional values holding plans and actuals; the main target for inbound data

How the MySQL and Pigment connectors work

MySQL

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL client/server protocol)
Authentication
Database credentials entered as a connection string or parameters, with optional SSL root certificate upload and optional SSH tunnel (SSH user + SSH host)
Change detection
Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing (requires log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON when binary logging is enabled)
Capabilities

Pigment

Integration surface
REST-based import and export API
Authentication
API keys, issued separately for import and export
Change detection
no change feed; syncs run scheduled imports and exports
