What you can automate between PostgreSQL and Sentry
These are the most popular automations teams set up between PostgreSQL and Sentry. Each one runs automatically once activated — no manual steps.
Create issue when new record created
Open a new issue or bug report automatically when a new row or document is added.
Insert record when new commit pushed
Add a new row or document automatically when code is committed to the repository.
Sync PostgreSQL changes to Sentry
Keep Sentry updated when data is modified in the database.
How data flows
What syncs between PostgreSQL and Sentry
When an event occurs in PostgreSQL, the relevant data is automatically sent to Sentry. DeskFerry maps the fields between both apps so the data arrives in the right format — no manual formatting or exports required.
Data from PostgreSQL
- Records / documents
- Collection items
- Field values
- Timestamps
- Unique IDs
Data from Sentry
- Issues / PRs
- Commits
- Project items
- Labels / tags
- Assignees
Step-by-step guide
How to connect PostgreSQL to Sentry
Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.
What you'll need
- An active PostgreSQL account with read/write permissions
- An active Sentry account with repository access
- A free DeskFerry account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
- Step 01
Create your DeskFerry account
Sign up at deskferry.app — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.
- Step 02
Authenticate PostgreSQL
Click "Add Connection" and select PostgreSQL from the app directory. You'll be redirected to PostgreSQL's authorization page. Grant DeskFerry read/write access to your database collections and records. You specify which databases and collections the integration can use.
- Step 03
Authenticate Sentry
Same process for Sentry. Click "Add Connection," select Sentry, and authorize access. Grant DeskFerry access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.
- Step 04
Choose your trigger
Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new record created in postgresql or new commit pushed in sentry. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.
- Step 05
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create issue in sentry. Map the data fields between PostgreSQL and Sentry so the right information lands in the right place.
- Step 06
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between PostgreSQL and Sentry. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — DeskFerry handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.
Benefits
Why connect PostgreSQL and Sentry?

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I connect PostgreSQL to Sentry?
Sign up for a free DeskFerry account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both PostgreSQL and Sentry via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing databases events to developer tools actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
What can I automate between PostgreSQL and Sentry?
You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new PostgreSQL events to Sentry actions, trigger Sentry updates when PostgreSQL data changes, create Sentry records from PostgreSQL events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
Is the PostgreSQL and Sentry integration free?
DeskFerry's 7-day free trial is enough to prove the workflow out. If your PostgreSQL-to-Sentry workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $49/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
Is my PostgreSQL data secure when connected to Sentry?
Yes. DeskFerry uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your PostgreSQL or Sentry passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your databases data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your DeskFerry dashboard.
Can I sync data both ways between PostgreSQL and Sentry?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either PostgreSQL or Sentry. For example, create a workflow where PostgreSQL events update Sentry, and a separate one where Sentry changes sync back to PostgreSQL. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect PostgreSQL and Sentry?
No coding is required. DeskFerry's builder is prompt-based: you describe the trigger and what should happen in plain English, and the agent handles the field mapping. If you can use PostgreSQL and Sentry, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
