Why teams connect BigQuery and Shipwire

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

BigQuery is the analytical store where the business joins, models, and reports on its data; Shipwire 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 Tables, Partitioned tables, Clustered tables, Datasets in BigQuery with Orders, Products, Stock, Receivings in Shipwire 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 Maintain a customer master table in BigQuery joined across CRM, billing, and support sources
  • 02 Feed ML feature tables in BigQuery from operational systems on a continuous schedule
  • 03 Push Products, kits, and their dimensions and pricing from a PIM or ERP into the Shipwire catalog and keep SKUs aligned.
  • 04 Read Stock levels per warehouse into an operational database or storefront so availability and backorder state reflect real inventory.

Common sync patterns

Live analytics on store activity

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

Where Shipwire accepts writes: push computed attributes back

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

One product catalog

Where both systems hold product or catalog data, cleaned and enriched attributes stay aligned so the store and the warehouse describe the same items.

What you can sync between BigQuery and Shipwire

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.

BigQuery objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Tables The syncable unit: only tables can be synced per the Stacksync docs. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Tables is specific to BigQuery and Trackings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitioned tables Synced like regular tables; partition columns map to target fields. Rates Shipping cost quotes for a cart or order; read-only, called at checkout time to estimate carrier costs rather than synced as stored records. Partitioned tables is specific to BigQuery and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Clustered tables Supported; clustering is transparent to the sync. Orders B2C fulfillment orders (create, update, cancel, get) with item, hold, routing, and tracking subresources; typically written from a storefront or ERP and synced back with status and trackings. Clustered tables is specific to BigQuery and Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Datasets Organizational container — you pick which dataset’s tables to sync. Products Catalog SKUs including kits, virtual kits, and marketplace products; created and edited via API, commonly mastered in a PIM or ERP and pushed into Shipwire with dimensions and pricing. Datasets is specific to BigQuery and Products to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Projects Connection scope: the service account grants access per project. Stock Real-time per-warehouse inventory levels; read-only, pulled into a database or storefront so availability reflects on-hand and backordered quantities. Projects is specific to BigQuery and Stock to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BigQuery and Shipwire

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.

BigQuery Shipwire 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 Shipwire through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Shipwire BigQuery Sub-second propagation

DetectionShipwire notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 signed, near real-time) on order, tracking, stock, receiving, return, and product topics.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • Shipwire: No published per-second request cap; list responses page at 20 items (recommended max ~200) and webhook payloads carry at most 20 items per resource, so large records must be paged via the response next links.
