Why teams connect IBM AS/400 and Wrike

Mirror Wrike's data into IBM AS/400 so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Wrike through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in IBM AS/400.

Stacksync mirrors Folders & Projects, Custom Fields, Comments, Timelogs from Wrike into Rows / records, Journals and journal receivers, Data queues, Libraries in IBM AS/400 and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Wrike, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync of Tasks and their Custom Fields between a Wrike project and Postgres so ops teams work in SQL while project owners stay in Wrike.
  • 02 Write closed deals or new orders from a CRM or ERP into Wrike Tasks to launch delivery, onboarding, or fulfillment projects automatically.
  • 03 Expose AS/400 order, inventory, and item master data to modern SaaS tools without rewriting green-screen applications.
  • 04 Use journal-based change capture to replicate IBM i data into a cloud warehouse for reporting.

Common sync patterns

Read Wrike with a query

Records from Wrike are ordinary rows in IBM AS/400; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Wrike from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in IBM AS/400 and Stacksync propagates the change into Wrike, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Wrike arrive as row changes in IBM AS/400, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between IBM AS/400 and Wrike

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.

IBM AS/400 objects Wrike objects How this pairing syncs
Physical files (tables) The Db2 for i tables mapped directly to sync targets. Spaces Top-level containers that hold Folders, Projects, and their members; used to scope which Folders a given sync covers. Physical files (tables) is specific to IBM AS/400 and Spaces to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Logical files (views) Indexed or filtered views over physical files, usable as read sources. Tasks The primary unit of work and main record; created, updated, completed, and deleted via the REST v4 API and synced two-way. Subtasks are Tasks linked by superTask/subTask references. Logical files (views) is specific to IBM AS/400 and Tasks to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs. Folders & Projects The container hierarchy: Folders group Tasks, and Projects add dates, an owner, and a status. Each maps to a synced table scope, and its structure defines what a sync covers. Members is specific to IBM AS/400 and Folders & Projects to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access. Custom Fields Typed fields (Text, Numeric, Date, DropDown, Contacts, Checkbox) defined at account or space level; mapped to database columns, with values written by field ID. Rows / records is specific to IBM AS/400 and Custom Fields to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files. Comments Discussion and activity entries attached to Tasks and Folders; read out for history and reporting or written back as comments. Journals and journal receivers is specific to IBM AS/400 and Comments to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations. Timelogs Time-tracking entries logged against Tasks; read for billing and utilization reporting or written back when hours are recorded elsewhere. Data queues is specific to IBM AS/400 and Timelogs to Wrike — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between IBM AS/400 and Wrike

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.

IBM AS/400 Wrike Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in IBM AS/400 are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Journal-based CDC by reading journal receivers on journaled files.

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

Wrike IBM AS/400 Sub-second propagation

DetectionWrike notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks scoped to a folder, a space, or the whole account fire on events like TaskCreated, TaskStatusChanged, and FolderCreated, with event.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to IBM AS/400 as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • IBM AS/400: Bounded by system resources and subsystem configuration rather than an API quota.
  • Wrike: Approximately 400 requests/minute per user (estimated on a per-second basis) with a higher per-IP ceiling; exceeding the limit or tripping Wrike's internal overload protection returns HTTP 429, handled with exponential backoff.
