Query the Daylite API using regular SQL

You're a developer. You're perfectly capable of connecting to the Daylite API and pulling down data. But why waste your time building an API integration when your skills and time are better spent elsewhere?

API integrations are hard to build and maintain. But with SyncHub, you can query your data source using a language you know and love - SQL.

How it works

Get your Daylite data into your favourite reporting tool in just two minutes and three easy steps.

1 2 3 Connect Daylite to SyncHub

Securely connect your cloud software to SyncHub and we'll do the rest.

1 2 3 We sync your data automatically

SyncHub incrementally syncs your data and stages it in a managed data warehouse (yours, or we'll provide one for free). We check for changes so you don't have to.

1 2 3 Build your customized reports

Query and share your data using our built-in Insights platform, integrate with your artificial intelligence platforms or use reporting tools like Excel, Tableau or Power BI.

No ODBC driver required

SyncHub runs in the cloud, 24×7. There are no ODBC drivers to install or maintain, and no local computer required to cache your results. Just securely connect SyncHub to your Daylite account and you can be querying your data in just a couple of minutes.

BYOD

Want more power? How about views, stored procedures or triggers? No problem - SyncHub's Bring Your Own Database feature gives you complete control over your database.

Real-time data*

Make a change in Daylite and query it via SQL within minutes. Our feed is so quick, you'll think you're querying Daylite directly!

Your data is secure

Your Daylite data is stored using best-practice security protocols. But if you're still concerned, no worries - just use our BYOD (Bring Your Own Database) option when setting up your account.

Frequently asked questions

Not directly, no. But SyncHub's ERD model, combined with the real-time* sync from Daylite, means that it is essentially the same as querying directly.
No. Our solution is cloud-hosted, meaning no installs are required on your own computers. Furthermore, because it is cloud-hosted, SyncHub runs in the background 24-7, keeping your data up to date while you sleep.
If your SQL skills are a little rusty, we've got you covered too. Our AI-powered Query Assistant uses knowledge of your Daylite data model to create SQL queries for you - just describe your problem and watch the magic happen.
SyncHub can poll Daylite as frequently as every five minutes, however this capability may be limited by the amount of data you have and/or the type of plan you have with Daylite. The best way to find out is to simply grab a free trial of SyncHub, connect Daylite, then see for yourself.
No. SyncHub is a read-only tool and cannot reflect changes back to your cloud applications.
We currently sync Appointment, Category, Company, Contact, Keyword, Note, Opportunity, Project, Relationship, Relationship type, Resource, Role, Role type, Task, User, Appointment resource, Appointment invitation, Appointment contact, Appointment note, Appointment project, Appointment keyword, Company keyword, Company email, Company u r l, Company social profile, Company phone number, Company address, Company contact, Company opportunity, Contact phone number, Contact email, Contact social profile, Contact URL, Contact address, Contact company, Contact opportunity, Contact appointment, Contact keyword, Note keyword, Note appointment, Note contact, Note company, Note group, Note opportunity, Note project, Note task, Opportunity contact, Opportunity company, Project keyword, Role type entity, Task keyword, Task appointment, Task subtask, Task contact, Task company, Task group, Task note, Task opportunity and Task project (see our Data Model for full details). If there's something else you need just ask.
Your Daylite data is stored in its own dedicated data warehouse, hosted in our Microsoft Azure Sydney Data Center. If you'd like it stored somewhere else (even your own servers), just enquire about our BYOD (bring-your-own-database) option.
Absolutely. Every customer gets their very own isolated data warehouse. Database credentials are salt-encrypted...multi-factor authentication can be activated for your account...we take security very seriously. You can read more about our security best practices here.

* Realtime

SyncHub's engine polls for changes every 5 minutes. However, different APIs, and different endpoints within those APIs, may impose restrictions beyond our control - thereby reducing the fidelity of your real-time feed.
