Why teams connect DuckDB and Easypost

Give your engineers Easypost's products, orders, and customers in DuckDB: 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 Parcel, Rate, Tracker, Batch from Easypost into DuckDB 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 DuckDB, 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 SaaS data to Parquet on object storage and query it with DuckDB without standing up a warehouse.
  • 02 Push aggregates computed in DuckDB out to a CRM or business tools so analysis results reach operational systems.
  • 03 Sync CarrierAccount configuration and negotiated rates so shipping options stay consistent across the storefront, ERP, and 3PL systems.
  • 04 Pull Shipment, Rate, and Refund records into a warehouse to report shipping cost per carrier and service and reclaim postage on labels that were never scanned.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from DuckDB back into Easypost, keeping the store authoritative on what it owns.

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Easypost, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in DuckDB 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.

What you can sync between DuckDB 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.

DuckDB objects Easypost objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Columnar tables created via SQL; the destination for materialized sync data. Address Origin and destination locations; create, retrieve, and list, plus address verification (delivery and residential) to normalize and validate addresses before they are saved downstream. Tables is specific to DuckDB and Address to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views used to shape or filter data for downstream consumers. Parcel Package dimensions and weight (or a predefined_package); created standalone or inline on a Shipment and reused across shipments and batches. Views is specific to DuckDB and Parcel to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) Files DuckDB queries in place without loading, common as a sync interchange format. 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. External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) is specific to DuckDB and Rate to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attached databases Additional database files or external systems attached into one session for cross-source queries. 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. Attached databases is specific to DuckDB and Tracker to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Database files Single-file .duckdb databases that jobs read and write directly on disk or object storage. 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. Database files is specific to DuckDB and Batch to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize tables in sync outputs. CarrierAccount Carrier credentials and settings that control which carriers and negotiated rates are available; create, update, and delete to manage enabled carriers across accounts. Schemas is specific to DuckDB and CarrierAccount to Easypost — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between DuckDB 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.

DuckDB Easypost Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DuckDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or full re-reads.

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • DuckDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O.
  • 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.
