Why teams connect InfluxDB and Shipwire

Give your engineers Shipwire's products, orders, and customers in InfluxDB: 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 Rates, Orders, Products, Stock from Shipwire into InfluxDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Shipwire holds, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in InfluxDB, such as new prices, stock levels, or fulfillment status, sync back into Shipwire 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 Replicate downsampled aggregates into a data warehouse for long-term BI beyond retention windows.
  • 02 Feed alert-relevant thresholds and asset metadata from business systems into InfluxDB tags for richer queries.
  • 03 Pull Returns and tracking.delivered events into a support or analytics database for reverse-logistics and delivery-SLA reporting.
  • 04 Two-way sync Orders between a storefront or ERP database and Shipwire so new orders create fulfillment requests and Stacksync writes Trackings and status (processed, submitted, delivered) back.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

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

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Shipwire, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in InfluxDB 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 Shipwire API, rate limits, and retries.

What you can sync between InfluxDB 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.

InfluxDB objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Tags Indexed key-value metadata used for filtering and as sync partition keys. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Tags is specific to InfluxDB and Trackings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fields The unindexed numeric or string values carried by each point. 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. Fields is specific to InfluxDB and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Retention policies Automatic expiry rules that determine how long synced history remains queryable. 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. Retention policies is specific to InfluxDB and Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizations Tenancy scope for tokens and buckets in multi-tenant deployments. 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. Organizations is specific to InfluxDB and Products to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets / databases Named containers with retention settings that scope reads and writes. Stock Real-time per-warehouse inventory levels; read-only, pulled into a database or storefront so availability reflects on-hand and backordered quantities. Buckets / databases is specific to InfluxDB and Stock to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Measurements The table-like grouping for points, typically mapped to a synced dataset. Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Measurements is specific to InfluxDB and Receivings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between InfluxDB 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.

InfluxDB Shipwire Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls InfluxDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with time-range queries.

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

Shipwire InfluxDB 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 InfluxDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • InfluxDB: Subject to the platform's API rate limits on cloud plans; self-hosted deployments are bounded by hardware.
  • 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.
