Why teams connect Easypost and TimescaleDB
Give your engineers Easypost's products, orders, and customers in TimescaleDB: 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 TimescaleDB 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 TimescaleDB, 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 Consolidate metrics from several services into one hypertable to serve a single reporting layer.
- 02 Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
- 03 Batch-create and buy labels for a day's orders, generate a ScanForm, and write each label and tracking code back into the fulfillment system.
- 04 When an order is ready to ship in an OMS, ERP, or database, create an EasyPost Shipment, buy the lowest qualifying Rate, and write the label URL and tracking code back onto the order.
Common sync patterns
Order data where your code can use it
Orders and their status become rows in TimescaleDB for routing, fulfillment, and reporting, without polling the platform.
Controlled write-back
Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from TimescaleDB 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 TimescaleDB as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.
What you can sync between Easypost and TimescaleDB
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.
| Easypost objects | TimescaleDB objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Parcel Package dimensions and weight (or a predefined_package); created standalone or inline on a Shipment and reused across shipments and batches. | Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly. | Parcel is specific to Easypost and Chunks to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems. | Rate is specific to Easypost and Continuous Aggregates to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data. | Tracker is specific to Easypost and Regular PostgreSQL Tables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers. | Batch is specific to Easypost and Views to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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 Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment. | CarrierAccount is specific to Easypost and Schemas to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| 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. | Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs. | Webhook is specific to Easypost and Hypertables to TimescaleDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Easypost and TimescaleDB
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.
Easypost TimescaleDB 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 TimescaleDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
TimescaleDB Easypost Sub-second propagation
DetectionChanges in TimescaleDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Easypost through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
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.
- TimescaleDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.

FAQ
Easypost and TimescaleDB integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Easypost and TimescaleDB: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Easypost's Parcel and Rate), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Easypost and TimescaleDB: Order data where your code can use it; Controlled write-back; Read the store's data with a query. Orders and their status become rows in TimescaleDB for routing, fulfillment, and reporting, without polling the platform.
-
Easypost: REST API (EasyPost API v2, https://api.easypost.com/v2). Authentication: HTTP Basic auth with the API key as the username and an empty password (Bearer token also accepted); separate Test and Production keys. TimescaleDB: SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL). Authentication: Database credentials. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
TimescaleDB: Continuous aggregates materialize rollups incrementally instead of recomputing them on every query. Easypost: EasyPost enforces a fixed 5 requests-per-second limit on index (list) endpoints plus a dynamic load-based limiter that protects high-priority buy and rate calls; exceeding either returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests, so backfills must pace and back off. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Easypost and TimescaleDB without custom code.
