How Zapier works
Zapier makes it easy to integrate MySQL with SQL Server - no code necessary. See how you can get setup in minutes.
Choose a trigger
A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "New Column" from MySQL.
Add your action
An action happens after the trigger—such as "Create Custom Query" in SQL Server.
You’re connected!
Zapier seamlessly connects MySQL and SQL Server, automating your workflow.
Supported triggers and actions
Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.

Practical ways you can use MySQL and SQL Server
Sync new rows between MySQL and SQL Server
When a new row is added to a MySQL table, Zapier inserts the same row into an SQL Server database, or vice-versa. This eliminates the need for manual syncing between the two databases, ensuring data consistency across platforms.
Business OwnerTransfer new data tables between SQL Server and MySQL
When a new table is created in SQL Server, Zapier creates the same table structure in MySQL. This allows data scientists to work on unified data sets across different environments without spending time on manual table creation.
Data Science
Monitor row updates between SQL Server and MySQL
Anytime a row is updated in a SQL Server database, Zapier updates the corresponding row in a MySQL table. This automation ensures IT professionals can maintain cohesive datasets across systems with minimal manual intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions about MySQL + SQL Server integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with MySQL and SQL Server
How can we sync data between MySQL and SQL Server?
To sync data between MySQL and SQL Server, you can use Data Sync tools like Microsoft Data Migration Assistant or third-party solutions that support both databases. It involves setting triggers on source tables that initiate actions in the destination database.
Can triggers be used in integrating MySQL with SQL Server?
Yes, triggers can be set up to automate certain actions during synchronization. For example, a trigger on a MySQL table could automatically insert or update records in an SQL Server table whenever there’s a change.
What are some challenges when integrating MySQL with SQL Server?
Some challenges include differences in datatypes, varying functions for database operations, and ensuring that triggers maintain data integrity across both systems during transactions.
Do I need to write custom scripts for data integration between MySQL and SQL Server?
Depending on your use case, custom scripts may be necessary to handle specific data transformations or to ensure certain actions are executed upon trigger events. Tools often allow customization through scripting to cater to unique requirements.
Are there tools within our platform to facilitate integration between MySQL and SQL Server?
Our platform may provide connectors or integrations specifically designed for synchronizing between MySQL and SQL Server, allowing you to set conditions or triggers that manage the data flow efficiently.
How do we ensure consistency with transactional operations in both databases?
Ensure consistency by implementing distributed transactions where possible. This may involve setting up compensating operations triggered by failures on either side, ensuring all actions within a transaction are completed successfully.
Is it possible to integrate stored procedures during the synchronization process?
Yes, you can integrate stored procedures which can be triggered as part of the action sequence during synchronization. Both databases support stored procedures which can be customized for complex operations.
