Quick start

Set up your first sync in less than 5 minutes

PreviousWhat is Stacksync?NextCommunity

Last updated 5 months ago

Stacksync let's you sync data across your tools so when you update data anywhere, it updates everywhere! You can create your first sync in under 5 minutes. Here's how:

Step 1: Create a new sync

From your dashboard, click "Create a new sync"

Step 2: Connect your apps

Click on each app you want to sync and connect in a click!

Step 3: Map tables

If both of your apps contain tables that should be synced together, your can select them side by side. If for some tables in an app you do not have yet a table in the other app, Stacksync will create pixel-perfect schemas for you! ✨ In most use cases you will let Stacksync create new tables for you, but it is as you please!

You can also choose the sync direction: one-way or two-way sync 😍

Step 4: Map fields

For every table you want to sync, you will map fields (i.e. columns) together.

Stacksync uses AI auto-mapping where the best matching pairs will be found for you so you do not have to do all the work manually. You can modifiy the proposed mapping as you please with maximum flexibility.

Field names do not have to match.

Field types need to be compatible (no need to be exactly the same but semantically compatible). Check our documentation on field mapping for more details.

Step 5: Turn sync on!

That's it! 🎉 Data will start syncing between your tools. With real-time and two-way sync you can modify your data in any of your synced apps for it to be updated in any other apps.

After turning sync on, you can check the issues dashboard to see any sync errors from your connected apps. Access it from the menu on the left of your Stacksync screen.
