Integration in Four Steps
Step 1: Connect Heroku Postgres
Connect Postgres with standard ODBC credentials.
Step 2: Connect Zapier as a destination
Configure Zapier to catch webhooks and trigger the workflow automation of your choice.
Step 3: Define the core data that matters for your business
Write a SQL Statement to select the records you want to sync from Heroku Postgres. Census will match records based on the unique identifier you provide (like email or ID).
Step 4: Schedule your sync
Choose your sync frequency with options to transfer data in real time, on a schedule, or triggered via our API.
