PostgreSQL
Event delivery to PostgreSQL.
Datafly Signal delivers first-party events to PostgreSQL server-to-server from infrastructure you control, using a pre-built blueprint that maps your event schema to the payload PostgreSQL expects.
Why route PostgreSQL through Datafly Signal
The data lands in infrastructure you own
Signal writes to your PostgreSQL directly from your own deployment. Datafly operates no intermediary and never holds a copy of your event data.
Client IP and user agent are recorded as event context
Both come from the original visitor request rather than from your server, so geography and device analysis reflects the actual visitor.
One consent decision governs every destination
PostgreSQL is gated by the same consent state as the rest of your stack, so a withdrawal applies everywhere at once.
What ships in the blueprint
Mapped events

Retail, General. Each preset starts from a working configuration for that vertical rather than a blank field map.
Full field mappings, configuration fields, and troubleshooting are in the PostgreSQL documentation.
Frequently asked questions
Does Datafly Signal integrate with PostgreSQL?
Yes. Datafly Signal delivers first-party events to PostgreSQL server-to-server from infrastructure you control, using a pre-built blueprint that maps your event schema to the payload PostgreSQL expects. The integration is included in every deployment at no additional cost.
How is server-side PostgreSQL tracking different from the PostgreSQL tag?
The PostgreSQL tag runs in the visitor's browser, so it is subject to ad blockers, tracking prevention, and page-unload races. Signal collects the event through a first-party endpoint on your own domain and delivers it to PostgreSQL from your server, so delivery does not depend on browser conditions.
Which events can Signal send to PostgreSQL?
The blueprint ships with mappings for add_to_cart, begin_checkout, page, purchase, refund, remove_from_cart, search, select_promotion, and more. Any event in your schema can be mapped to PostgreSQL through pipeline configuration without a code change.
Do I need to keep the PostgreSQL tag on my site?
No. Signal delivers to PostgreSQL from the server, so no client-side PostgreSQL script is required on your site.
