Choose access
Define the tables or service operations required and grant a narrowly scoped identity the appropriate permissions.

PostgreSQL integration.
Connect application data and reporting workflows through a deliberate database or service interface.
Let’s connectA controlled boundary around application data
Choose an application API, scheduled query or logical replication based on the required authority, freshness and operational impact.
Track changes
For logical replication, review publications, subscriptions and replica identity for the intended update and delete behavior.

- Source changes and replication configuration
- Produces
- Recoverable change stream
Reconcile and operate
Monitor lag and storage implications and compare destination state with the authoritative source.

- Replication or extraction checkpoints
- Produces
- Current and explainable downstream data
Step 1 of 3
Inspect the data contract.
Select a field to examine its owner, permitted changes and conflict handling. Clear ownership keeps updates consistent across systems.
| Field or object | Accountable owner | Mapping and control |
|---|---|---|
| Database owner | Supports the selected update and delete behavior. | |
| Database administrator | Limits the tables and operations replicated. | |
| Data engineering | Provides evidence of processing progress. |
Resolve the important decisions.
API or database path
An application API can enforce business rules that direct database access bypasses. Choose the boundary deliberately.
Schema evolution
Logical replication does not remove the need to coordinate schema changes and consumer compatibility.
Validate before handover.

Test an example workflowPlatform documentation
A connection with a clear purpose.
Application APIs, scheduled queries or logical replication assessed against access and freshness requirements.
We begin by identifying the business process this connection supports. Source ownership, permissions and the expected update behavior are documented before data starts moving.
The data behind the workflow.
TablesViewsKeysPublicationsSubscriptions
Object and field availability depend on the platform edition, API permissions and the agreed use case. Mapping defines which system owns each value and how changes are reconciled.
Decisions worth making early.
Scope & access
Prefer a controlled interface and limited permissions over unrestricted application database access.
Data & behavior
Evaluate schema changes, replica identity and operational impact before using logical replication.
From mapping to a maintainable connection.
Discover the workflow
Agree the trigger, source of truth, receiving system and the person accountable for exceptions.
Validate the contract
Confirm permissions, object mappings, identifiers, consent and API behavior using a representative test environment.
Test real scenarios
Exercise expected updates, duplicates, missing data, access failures and vendor rate limits.
Document and enable
Hand over field mappings, credentials ownership, monitoring guidance and recovery procedures.
The engineering detail.
Read the contracts, controls and failure behavior behind a maintainable implementation.
