News API to MySQL Integration

How Datrise loads News API into MySQL

Datrise syncs News API's articles, sources, headlines, publication dates, categories, and search queries 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.

FAQ

How does Datrise handle News API'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 News API to MySQL sync stay up to date?

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