Why teams connect Bigcommerce and InfluxDB

Give your engineers Bigcommerce's products, orders, and customers in InfluxDB: 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 Categories, Brands, Inventory, Price Lists from Bigcommerce into InfluxDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Bigcommerce holds, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in InfluxDB, such as new prices, stock levels, or fulfillment status, sync back into Bigcommerce 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 Replicate downsampled aggregates into a data warehouse for long-term BI beyond retention windows.
  • 02 Feed alert-relevant thresholds and asset metadata from business systems into InfluxDB tags for richer queries.
  • 03 Sync Customers and customer groups two-way with a CRM so marketing and support see the same accounts and addresses as the storefront.
  • 04 Push Price Lists from an ERP into BigCommerce to drive customer-group and B2B pricing without manual catalog edits.

Common sync patterns

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Bigcommerce, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in InfluxDB 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 Bigcommerce API, rate limits, and retries.

React to store changes

Updates in Bigcommerce arrive as row changes in InfluxDB, so jobs and triggers can respond the moment an order, price, or stock level changes.

What you can sync between Bigcommerce and InfluxDB

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 InfluxDB objects How this pairing syncs
Customers V3 customer accounts, customer groups, and addresses; synced two-way with a CRM so storefront and GTM records match. Fields The unindexed numeric or string values carried by each point. Customers is specific to Bigcommerce and Fields to InfluxDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Categories Catalog V3 category tree; mapped for merchandising and kept aligned with a product master or PIM. Retention policies Automatic expiry rules that determine how long synced history remains queryable. Categories is specific to Bigcommerce and Retention policies to InfluxDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Brands Catalog V3 brand records linked to products; kept aligned with a product master or PIM so brand names and pages stay consistent. Organizations Tenancy scope for tokens and buckets in multi-tenant deployments. Brands is specific to Bigcommerce and Organizations to InfluxDB — 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. Buckets / databases Named containers with retention settings that scope reads and writes. Inventory is specific to Bigcommerce and Buckets / databases to InfluxDB — 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. Measurements The table-like grouping for points, typically mapped to a synced dataset. Price Lists is specific to Bigcommerce and Measurements to InfluxDB — 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. Points Individual time-stamped records, the unit of write via line protocol. Shipments is specific to Bigcommerce and Points to InfluxDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Bigcommerce and InfluxDB

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 InfluxDB 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 InfluxDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

InfluxDB Bigcommerce Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls InfluxDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with time-range queries.

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.
  • InfluxDB: Subject to the platform's API rate limits on cloud plans; self-hosted deployments are bounded by hardware.

How the Bigcommerce and InfluxDB connectors work

Bigcommerce

Integration surface
REST Management API (V2 and V3), plus GraphQL Storefront and Admin APIs
Authentication
OAuth API account credentials — a store-generated client ID and permanent access token sent in the X-Auth-Token header, limited to the OAuth scopes granted when the account is created (e.g. store_v2_orders, store_v2_products)
Change detection
Webhooks push near-real-time events (store/order/*, store/product/*, store/customer/* and more); polling uses date_modified:min/max filters on Products, Orders, and Customers
