Zenefits to Neon Integration

How Datrise loads Zenefits into Neon

Datrise syncs Zenefits's employees, departments, employments, time off requests, benefits enrollments, and compensation records into Neon as a typed table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in jsonb columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as timestamptz.

Sync is incremental: Datrise uses a watermark on updated-at, applied with INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE, so re-runs update only what changed. Optional declarative partitioning by load date. Neon separates compute from storage, so Datrise batches writes to keep autoscaling compute from cold-starting on every small change.

Ideal for serverless Postgres workloads that scale to zero between syncs.

Endpoints

Zenefits: HR, benefits, and payroll administration.

Neon: Serverless Postgres destination with branching and autoscaling.

FAQ

How does Datrise handle Zenefits's custom fields in Neon?

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

How does the Zenefits to Neon sync stay up to date?

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