Why teams connect Bigcommerce and BigQuery

Make BigQuery the analytics and enrichment layer behind Bigcommerce: orders, products, and customers stay current in both directions.

BigQuery is the analytical store where the business joins, models, and reports on its data; Bigcommerce runs the storefront, catalog, and transactions that generate most of it. The overlap is every record that has to be counted and enriched on one side and acted on the other — and when the bridge is a nightly export, the warehouse reports on yesterday while the store operates without the segments and metrics the warehouse just computed.

Stacksync syncs Partitioned tables, Clustered tables, Datasets, Projects in BigQuery with Categories, Brands, Inventory, Price Lists in Bigcommerce field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Transactional records land in the warehouse as they change, computed attributes and cleaned catalog data flow back to the store, and you decide which system owns which fields so Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Feed ML feature tables in BigQuery from operational systems on a continuous schedule
  • 02 Land CRM and ERP records in BigQuery continuously so dashboards reflect business systems without nightly batch jobs
  • 03 Write Inventory levels from a WMS or ERP onto BigCommerce Variants and SKUs so storefront availability reflects warehouse on-hand counts.
  • 04 Sync Customers and customer groups two-way with a CRM so marketing and support see the same accounts and addresses as the storefront.

Common sync patterns

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer records, corrections in either propagate to the other so analytics and the storefront share one identity.

Live analytics on store activity

Orders, products, and customer records from Bigcommerce land in BigQuery as they change, so dashboards and models read current data instead of last night's export.

Where Bigcommerce accepts writes: push computed attributes back

Segments, lifetime value, and scores built in BigQuery write onto the matching records in Bigcommerce, so merchandising and messaging act on warehouse logic.

What you can sync between Bigcommerce and BigQuery

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.

Bigcommerce objects BigQuery objects How this pairing syncs
Brands Catalog V3 brand records linked to products; kept aligned with a product master or PIM so brand names and pages stay consistent. Clustered tables Supported; clustering is transparent to the sync. Brands is specific to Bigcommerce and Clustered tables to BigQuery — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Inventory Product- or variant-level stock, plus multi-location counts via the V3 Inventory API; written from a WMS to reflect on-hand quantities. Datasets Organizational container — you pick which dataset’s tables to sync. Inventory is specific to Bigcommerce and Datasets to BigQuery — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Price Lists V3 price lists and records driving customer-group and B2B pricing; pushed from an ERP so tiered prices stay current. Projects Connection scope: the service account grants access per project. Price Lists is specific to Bigcommerce and Projects to BigQuery — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Shipments Order shipments with tracking numbers; created in BigCommerce from a 3PL or fulfillment system as packages ship. Tables The syncable unit: only tables can be synced per the Stacksync docs. Shipments is specific to Bigcommerce and Tables to BigQuery — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Products Catalog V3 records with custom fields and images; mastered in a PIM or ERP and written to BigCommerce, or read out to a warehouse. Partitioned tables Synced like regular tables; partition columns map to target fields. Products is specific to Bigcommerce and Partitioned tables to BigQuery — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Bigcommerce and BigQuery

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.

Bigcommerce BigQuery Sub-second propagation

DetectionBigcommerce notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks push near-real-time events (store/order/*, store/product/*, store/customer/* and more).

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

BigQuery Bigcommerce Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in BigQuery are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Real-time notification service deployed into your Google Cloud project: Eventarc ("a notification service that enables real-time updates to happen").

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Bigcommerce: OAuth quota refreshes every 30 seconds and varies by plan (about 20,000 requests/hour on Standard and Plus, 60,000 on Pro, higher on Enterprise); the X-Rate-Limit-Requests-Left header reports remaining calls.
  • BigQuery: Subject to Google Cloud quotas on queries, DML, and streaming; DML is supported but the platform favors append-heavy batch and streaming loads over row-at-a-time writes.
