Why teams connect Autopilot and Fishbowl Manufacturing

Ground Autopilot on the customers, suppliers, items, and transactions that live in Fishbowl Manufacturing, and write the classifications, scores, and extracted fields Autopilot produces back onto those records in real time.

An AI system does not keep customers, orders, or invoices the way an ERP does. What it keeps is derived: the vectors and metadata in a store, or the classifications, extracted fields, and generated text a model produces over records it was handed. Fishbowl Manufacturing is where those source records actually live, across finance, operations, procurement, and inventory, and that data usually stays behind a strict API with many record types. Whatever Autopilot produces, whether a category, a risk flag, an extracted value, or an embedding, only earns its keep when it lands back on the record in Fishbowl Manufacturing where the business is run.

Stacksync connects Journeys (Triggers), Activities, Contacts, Lists in Autopilot with Inventory, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Manufacture orders in Fishbowl Manufacturing and keeps the two sides in sync in real time. Inventory, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Manufacture orders from Fishbowl Manufacturing replicate into Autopilot continuously, so retrieval, classification, and reasoning run against current ERP records instead of last night's extract, and the fields Autopilot generates sync back onto the matching record in Fishbowl Manufacturing. Mapping is field-level, matching is on identifiers you choose, and Stacksync handles the ERP's API limits and schema drift, so there is no extraction pipeline to build or babysit.

Because every AI-side item carries the key of the record it came from, results always resolve to the right customer, supplier, or transaction. Autopilot reasons over the business as it actually is within seconds of a change, and the people running operations act on model output where they already work, without exporting a file or logging into a second system.

Common use cases

  • 01 Add contacts to a Journey from a database event or CRM stage change to start automated onboarding or nurture sequences.
  • 02 Mirror List and Smart Segment membership into a warehouse to power attribution and audience analytics alongside other sources.
  • 03 Push purchase orders from procurement tools into Fishbowl and sync receipts back on arrival.
  • 04 Sync e-commerce orders into Fishbowl as sales orders and return fulfillment status and tracking numbers.

Common sync patterns

Derived fields back on the record

Categories, scores, or extracted values produced in Autopilot sync onto the matching record in Fishbowl Manufacturing, where operations and finance teams see and act on them without leaving the ERP.

Continuous freshness, no reload

As records are created or corrected in Fishbowl Manufacturing, the copy held in Autopilot updates within seconds, so the model side never reasons over stale ERP data.

One consistent identity across both systems

A customer, supplier, item, or transaction in Fishbowl Manufacturing maps to the corresponding entry in Autopilot, so every AI result attaches to the right entity on both sides.

What you can sync between Autopilot and Fishbowl Manufacturing

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.

Autopilot objects Fishbowl Manufacturing objects How this pairing syncs
Activities Per-contact activity and event history (opens, clicks, journey steps); read-only feed used for engagement reporting. Inventory Quantity by part and location, mirrored out to sales channels to prevent overselling. Activities is specific to Autopilot and Inventory to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contacts Core people records (email, name, custom fields, list and segment membership); upserted two-way as the primary sync object. Sales orders Created from commerce or CRM systems; fulfillment status syncs back. Contacts is specific to Autopilot and Sales orders to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lists Static contact lists; membership is readable per list and writable by adding or removing contacts. Purchase orders Pushed from procurement tools; receipts sync back on arrival. Lists is specific to Autopilot and Purchase orders to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields User-defined contact properties (string, number, date, boolean); discovered so field keys map cleanly to destination columns. Manufacture orders Production work whose status feeds planning dashboards. Custom Fields is specific to Autopilot and Manufacture orders to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Smart Segments Rule-based dynamic audiences; membership is computed by Autopilot, so it is read-only over the API. Bills of materials Component structures read for costing and material planning. Smart Segments is specific to Autopilot and Bills of materials to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Journeys (Triggers) Automation journeys; a contact can be added to a journey via its trigger endpoint to start automated email or SMS sequences. Customers Buyer records kept aligned with a CRM. Journeys (Triggers) is specific to Autopilot and Customers to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Autopilot and Fishbowl Manufacturing

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.

Autopilot Fishbowl Manufacturing Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Autopilot for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Autopilot: The REST API is capped at 100 requests/minute per account; exceeding it returns HTTP 429. Enterprise plans can request a higher limit. Contact writes accept an array for bulk upsert, and list and segment reads paginate via a bookmark cursor.
  • Fishbowl Manufacturing: Practical throughput is bounded by the Fishbowl server instance rather than a published quota.

How the Autopilot and Fishbowl Manufacturing connectors work

Autopilot

Integration surface
REST API (Autopilot v1); Autopilot rebranded to Ortto in 2021 and the newer Ortto API co-exists with the legacy Autopilot endpoints
Authentication
Per-account API key sent in the autopilotapikey request header (generated in account settings); requests use Content-Type application/json against https://api2.autopilothq.com/v1/
Change detection
No CDC; incremental sync polls the /contacts endpoint with bookmark cursor pagination and updated timestamps. Journey webhook actions can push specific contact events, but there is no general change-subscription webhook, so polling is the reliable path.
