Considerations 

The PostgreSQL read/write connector has a few limitations. 

  1. The PostgreSQL connector will only import 50,000 records per table into your Stacker app. 
  2. Tables with multiple primary keys are currently only read-only. 
  3. PostgreSQL views are read-only. 
  4. We do not support all field types. Field types that are not supported are not imported, and you will not see them within your Stacker app. You can see what fields are not supported in the pop-up after initial schema sync.
  5. If any values of the first field are NULL, syncing data for views can fail if any values of the first column are NULL
