Why teams connect Azure Cosmos DB and Easypost

Give your engineers Easypost's products, orders, and customers in Azure Cosmos DB: read them with normal queries, write inventory and prices back through the sync, and skip the storefront API.

E-commerce data sits behind an API built for the storefront, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for order routing, inventory logic, reporting, or back-office tools, end up writing integration code against a rate-limited API and maintaining it through every catalog change and platform upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Shipment, Address, Parcel, Rate from Easypost into Azure Cosmos DB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Easypost holds, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Azure Cosmos DB, such as new prices, stock levels, or fulfillment status, sync back into Easypost with its validations respected.

Merchandising and operations keep working in the storefront, engineers keep working in the database, and neither side has to reconcile against a nightly export.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync CRM or ERP records into a Cosmos DB container that backs a customer-facing application.
  • 02 Mirror Cosmos DB items into Postgres so teams can query operational data with standard SQL.
  • 03 Create a Tracker for every outbound shipment and stream tracker.updated webhook events into Postgres or a warehouse so support and ops see live delivery status beside order records.
  • 04 Verify and normalize customer Addresses through EasyPost before they are saved to the CRM or OMS to cut failed deliveries and carrier address-correction surcharges.

Common sync patterns

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Easypost, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in Azure Cosmos DB as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Easypost API, rate limits, and retries.

React to store changes

Updates in Easypost arrive as row changes in Azure Cosmos DB, so jobs and triggers can respond the moment an order, price, or stock level changes.

What you can sync between Azure Cosmos DB and Easypost

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.

Azure Cosmos DB objects Easypost objects How this pairing syncs
Databases Top-level namespaces that scope containers and throughput provisioning. Rate Carrier service and price options EasyPost generates on a Shipment; read-only - you select a rate id and buy it, you do not create or edit rates directly. Databases is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Rate to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Containers The unit of partitioning and throughput; each container maps to a synced collection. Tracker Tracking for a shipment by tracking_code and carrier; create a Tracker to begin tracking, read status and tracking_details, and receive tracker.updated events via webhook as the parcel moves. Containers is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Tracker to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items (JSON documents) Schema-flexible JSON records read and written during sync; nested structures are flattened or mapped as needed. Batch Bulk shipment processing; create a batch, add or remove shipments, buy all labels at once, and generate a consolidated label or ScanForm for the day's orders. Items (JSON documents) is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Batch to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partition keys Determine data distribution and must be included on writes for the sync to route items correctly. CarrierAccount Carrier credentials and settings that control which carriers and negotiated rates are available; create, update, and delete to manage enabled carriers across accounts. Partition keys is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and CarrierAccount to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Change feed entries Ordered record of inserts and updates per partition, consumed for incremental sync. Webhook Event subscriptions delivering an Event via HTTP POST on object changes; full CRUD (create, retrieve, list, update, delete) and the mechanism for near-real-time change delivery to Stacksync. Change feed entries is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Webhook to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored procedures and triggers Server-side logic scoped to a partition; relevant when writes must respect existing validation. Shipment The central writable object: create with a to/from Address and Parcel, receive Rate options, then buy a label to get postage_label and tracking_code; retrieve and list with cursor pagination. Stored procedures and triggers is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Shipment to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Cosmos DB and Easypost

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.

Azure Cosmos DB Easypost Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Azure Cosmos DB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Built-in change feed exposing inserts and updates in order within each partition key range.

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

Easypost Azure Cosmos DB Sub-second propagation

DetectionEasypost notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks deliver an Event via HTTP POST on object changes (e.g.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Azure Cosmos DB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Easypost: Fixed 5 requests/second on index (list) endpoints plus a dynamic load-based limiter protecting buy and rate operations; exceeding either returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests.
