Why teams connect Egnyte and Shopify

Keep the paperwork with the relationship: Shopify and Egnyte share every customer's records and files in real time, in both directions.

Shopify holds the customer relationship as structured records; Egnyte holds the files that belong to those relationships, from contracts and proposals to signed agreements and statements of work. The two are linked in practice and disconnected in software: someone downloads a document, renames it, and uploads it to the right folder, or exports records out to storage for retention. Done by hand, files drift away from the records they belong to and copies fall out of date.

Stacksync keeps Products, ProductMedias, ProductVariants, Orders in Shopify aligned with Files, Folders, Users, Groups in Egnyte, in real time. A new account or deal can open its own folder in Egnyte; a document filed in Egnyte can surface as a link and metadata on the matching record in Shopify; and records from Shopify can be written into Egnyte as files or objects for backup, archival, and compliance. You choose which side owns what, and Stacksync keeps the two consistent as either one changes.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync orders, customers, and inventory into Postgres for operational reporting across stores.
  • 02 Keep customer records aligned between Shopify and a CRM for segmentation and lifetime-value analysis.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Files and Folders between Egnyte and an operational database or another content store, keeping the folder hierarchy aligned.
  • 04 Write custom Metadata such as classification tags and project fields onto Files and Folders from a governance or DMS system, and read it back for reporting.

Common sync patterns

One place for a customer's files

Attachments that accumulate against a record in Shopify collect in that customer's folder in Egnyte, so the full document history lives in one place and is reachable by anyone who needs it.

A folder per account or deal

When an account or deal is created in Shopify, a matching folder or container opens in Egnyte, named and organized the same way, so files have a home the moment they are needed.

Documents linked back to the record

A contract, proposal, or signed agreement filed in Egnyte surfaces as a link on the matching record in Shopify, so the customer's paperwork sits with the relationship instead of a shared drive.

What you can sync between Egnyte and Shopify

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.

Egnyte objects Shopify objects How this pairing syncs
Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Products Catalog entries; often mastered in a PIM or ERP and written into Shopify. Files is specific to Egnyte and Products to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. ProductMedias Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Folders is specific to Egnyte and ProductMedias to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Accounts managed via the Users API; provisioned, updated, and deactivated in sync with an HRIS or identity provider. ProductVariants Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Users is specific to Egnyte and ProductVariants to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Orders Purchase transactions; pushed to ERPs for fulfillment and billing, and read into databases for reporting. Groups is specific to Egnyte and Orders to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. Customers Buyer records; matched to CRM contacts for marketing and lifetime-value analysis. Permissions is specific to Egnyte and Customers to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. Abandoned Checkouts Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Links is specific to Egnyte and Abandoned Checkouts to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and Shopify

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.

Egnyte Shopify Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Shopify Egnyte Sub-second propagation

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
  • Shopify: GraphQL uses a calculated query-cost budget; the REST API uses a leaky-bucket model.
