Stay ahead with real-time data.

Connect to Directus and subscribe to updates in a collection, and get notified when there's an update to show your users. Increase trust in your data, lower the build complexity.

Keep your data current with WebSockets.

Don't worry about data falling out of sync again. Directus connects directly to your database and emits events to connected clients when database changes occur. 

 

WebSockets, GraphQL subscriptions, or SDK

Use a standard WebSocket connection, subscribe over GraphQL, or use our SDK methods.

Full CRUD over WebSockets

Decrease complexity by creating, reading, updating, and deleting items using a single WebSockets connection.

Respects user permissions

Use various authentication schemes, and all requests use your configured permissions. 

import { createDirectus, realtime } from '@directus/sdk'
const client = createDirectus('https://example.directus.app').with(realtime({ authMode: 'public' }));

client.sendMessage({
	type: 'items',
	collection: 'messages',
	action: 'create',
	data: { text: 'Hello World!' },
});

Backed by your database

Unlike many realtime solutions, all data is persisted in your database by design. Never worry about state management again.

Combine with other tools in the Directus toolkit.

Whether you specialize in frontend, backend, or fullstack, you'll get a suite of dev tools that'll make you even more efficient.

Our interactive app must access and serve up data in real time, and that’s something I don’t think we can achieve without Directus.
