Firebase to MySQL Integration

How Datrise loads Firebase into MySQL

Datrise syncs Firebase's users, collections, documents, auth events, app events, and security rules into MySQL as a typed table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in JSON columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as DATETIME/TIMESTAMP.

Sync is incremental: Datrise uses a watermark on updated-at, applied with INSERT … ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE, so re-runs update only what changed. Optional RANGE partitioning by load date. MySQL collation matters for CRM text, so Datrise lands utf8mb4 to preserve emoji and non-Latin characters.

Ideal for operational reporting and app databases already standardized on MySQL.

Endpoints

Firebase: App backend with auth, storage, and analytics.

MySQL: Widely used OSS relational engine (InnoDB).

How Firebase entities map to MySQL

Firebase entity	MySQL object	Notes
users	`firebase_users`	id PK · custom fields → JSON columns
collections	`firebase_collections`	id PK · linked to firebase_users
documents	`firebase_documents`	id PK · linked to firebase_users
auth events	`firebase_auth_events`	DATETIME/TIMESTAMP events

FAQ

How does Datrise handle Firebase's custom fields in MySQL?

Flexible values are stored as JSON columns, so new fields don't require a migration; strongly-typed fields — dates, numbers, and references — are promoted to native MySQL types.

How does the Firebase to MySQL sync stay up to date?

It runs incrementally — Datrise uses a watermark on updated-at, applied with INSERT … ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
