Why teams connect PostgreSQL and Veeva CRM

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

Stacksync mirrors Key Messages and CLM Content, Territories and Alignments, Events, Approved Email Activity from Veeva CRM into Custom Types and Enums, Tables, Views, Materialized Views in PostgreSQL with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Veeva CRM 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

  • Keep consent records aligned between Veeva and marketing platforms so channel opt-outs are enforced everywhere.
  • Feed territory alignments from a roster system into Veeva as field teams change.
  • Feed reporting and BI from a continuously synced Postgres replica instead of scheduled ETL scripts
  • Expose SaaS objects (CRM contacts, ERP invoices, support tickets) as Postgres tables that internal tools can query and join

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Veeva CRM arrive as row changes in PostgreSQL, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Veeva CRM become tables in PostgreSQL you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between PostgreSQL and Veeva CRM

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.

PostgreSQL objects Veeva CRM objects
Columns Field-level mapping targets; types are mapped to the connected system's field types. Territories and Alignments Rep-to-account assignments, often fed from a roster or alignment system.
Primary and Unique Keys Used as match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict resolution. Events Medical events and speaker programs managed through Veeva's events capabilities.
JSONB Columns Hold semi-structured payloads such as nested SaaS objects or metadata. Approved Email Activity Sent-email records from Veeva Approved Email, used in engagement reporting.
Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs. Accounts (HCPs and HCOs) Healthcare professionals and organizations; the central entity most syncs key on.
Custom Types and Enums Constrain synced values to a fixed set, mirroring picklist fields. Calls Recorded visits and interactions with HCPs, including samples dropped and key messages shown.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map one-to-one to records in connected SaaS systems. Medical Inquiries Information requests captured in the field and routed to medical affairs.
