Why teams connect Attio and Channelengine

Keep the customers and orders that Attio and Channelengine share aligned in real time, so sales works from live purchase history and the store works from current account details.

Attio holds the customer relationship: the contacts, accounts, and deals a go-to-market team works. Channelengine runs the buying side: who placed which order, what they bought, and where it ships. The two describe the same people and companies, and when they are connected only by exports, sales answers questions without recent orders in front of them while the store works from account details that changed weeks ago.

Stacksync links Workspaces, Custom objects, People, Companies in Attio to Returns, Cancellations, Backorders, Order documents in Channelengine with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, order activity, and corrected contact details move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. A record created or changed on either side shows up on the other within seconds, with no CSV exports and no nightly job.

The shared entity is the customer, matched on email or an external ID, so both systems agree on who the buyer is and the order history sits next to the relationship instead of in a separate tab.

Common use cases

  • 01 Run a two-way dual-run when migrating to Attio from another CRM.
  • 02 Sync companies, people, and deals with Postgres so ops teams enrich and update CRM records with SQL.
  • 03 Pull new marketplace orders with GET /v2/orders/new into an ERP or OMS and acknowledge them so fulfillment runs from the system of record.
  • 04 Write Shipments with tracking back to ChannelEngine when the warehouse or ERP marks an order shipped, so each marketplace notifies the buyer.

Common sync patterns

New buyers become CRM records

A customer created in Channelengine creates or updates the matching contact or account in Attio, so first-time and repeat buyers land in the relationship system without a manual import.

Contact and address details stay consistent

An email, phone, or shipping and billing address corrected in either system updates the other, so the next order and the next outreach both use current information.

Where Attio segments customers: status travels to the store record

Lifecycle stage, tier, or account owner set in Attio syncs onto the customer record in Channelengine, so the buying side can act on how the relationship is classified.

What you can sync between Attio and Channelengine

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Attio objects Channelengine objects How this pairing syncs
Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. Cancellations Order cancellations; create with POST /v2/cancellations and read with GET /v2/cancellations. Written when stock is unavailable and read back for reconciliation. Companies is specific to Attio and Cancellations to Channelengine — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Backorders Records marking part of an order as temporarily out of stock; create with POST /v2/backorders and read with GET /v2/backorders by merchant reference or since a date. Users is specific to Attio and Backorders to Channelengine — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Deals Pipeline records; read out for revenue reporting and written to from automation. Order documents Invoices and other order documents; retrieved as a paginated, filterable list via GET /v2/orders/documents for finance and archiving systems. Read-only. Deals is specific to Attio and Order documents to Channelengine — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Orders Marketplace and merchant-fulfilled orders; read via GET /v2/orders and GET /v2/orders/new (status NEW), then acknowledged with POST /v2/orders/acknowledge so later shipment, return, and cancellation calls can reference them. Workspaces is specific to Attio and Orders to Channelengine — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom objects Workspace-defined objects that behave like standard ones in the API. Products (product content) Catalog records created and updated via POST /v2/products and deactivated via DELETE; use a parent/child variant model where the parent is a non-purchasable blueprint. Written into ChannelEngine from a PIM, ERP, or database. Custom objects is specific to Attio and Products (product content) to Channelengine — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. Offers (price and stock) Price and stock updates via PUT /v2/offer/stock and the offers endpoints; separate from product content so fast-changing stock can be pushed often, and supports bulk updates across stock locations. People is specific to Attio and Offers (price and stock) to Channelengine — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Attio and Channelengine

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Attio Channelengine Sub-second propagation

DetectionAttio notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on record and list-entry events, with polling as a fallback.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Channelengine through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Channelengine Attio Sub-second propagation

DetectionChannelengine notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire on order creation and on return and shipment/cancellation changes.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Attio through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Attio: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
  • Channelengine: Rate limits are per endpoint and returned in headers: x-rate-limit-limit (interval length in minutes), x-rate-limit-remaining, and retry-after (seconds to wait); e.g. POST /v2/supportorder allows 3 calls per minute.

REST API (Merchant API v2); per-tenant base URL https://{tenant}.channelengine.net/api
Authentication
API key passed as the 'apikey' parameter; ChannelEngine recommends sending it in a request header rather than the URL because some webservers log full URLs
Change detection
Webhooks fire on order creation and on return and shipment/cancellation changes; product content and offers use change-tracking endpoints (GET /v2/products/data and /v2/products/offers) with an acknowledge pattern that returns only changed records, plus polling GET /v2/orders/new
