Why teams connect Ironclad and Linnworks

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between Ironclad and Linnworks.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. Ironclad is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Workflow Approvals, Signature Packets, Workflow Documents, Workflows in Ironclad with Locations, Purchase Orders, Suppliers, Channel Listings in Linnworks bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push Obligations and renewal dates from Ironclad into a finance or task system so post-signature commitments and renewals are tracked and actioned on time.
  • 02 Pull executed contract PDFs from Records attachments into a document store or archive as each workflow completes.
  • 03 Push customer and order data to a CRM or marketing platform for post-purchase campaigns
  • 04 Sync orders from Linnworks into an ERP or accounting system as they are processed, without CSV exports

Common sync patterns

Where Linnworks is the HR or people system of record

Worker and organization data from Linnworks stays current in Ironclad, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.

Master data corrections travel

A customer, supplier, or contact detail corrected in either system updates the other, ending duplicate maintenance.

Where Ironclad faces customers and Linnworks carries account records

Order, invoice, or account status from Linnworks appears alongside the customer in Ironclad, so front-line teams answer from live data.

What you can sync between Ironclad and Linnworks

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.

Ironclad objects Linnworks objects How this pairing syncs
Records The Repository of executed and stored contracts with metadata (value, counterparty, key dates, type) and attachments; full create, read, update, and delete so signed-contract data and PDFs sync to a warehouse, ERP, or CRM. Open Orders Unshipped orders aggregated from sales channels sync into ERPs and fulfillment systems. Records is specific to Ironclad and Open Orders to Linnworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Entities Structured records for counterparties and other parties linked to workflows and records; read and written to keep company and vendor master data aligned with a CRM or ERP. Processed Orders Completed orders feed accounting and warehouse-based margin reporting. Entities is specific to Ironclad and Processed Orders to Linnworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Obligations Post-signature commitments, milestones, and renewal dates tied to contracts; synced two-way to drive renewal, compliance, and finance reporting in downstream systems. Stock Items SKU records keep product data aligned with ERPs and PIMs. Obligations is specific to Ironclad and Stock Items to Linnworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Webhooks Event subscriptions that push workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment changes to Stacksync in near real time; created, listed, and deleted through the API across 40+ event types. Stock Levels Per-location quantities sync outward so channels and planning tools reflect current availability. Webhooks is specific to Ironclad and Stock Levels to Linnworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflow Approvals Per-workflow approval requests and their state; read to report approval status and cycle time, and status changes arrive live through the workflow_approval_status_changed event. Locations Warehouse and fulfillment location records scope stock data during mapping. Workflow Approvals is specific to Ironclad and Locations to Linnworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Signature Packets The e-signature packets on a workflow (sent, signatures collected, fully signed); read to track signing progress, with packet events delivered by webhook for real-time status. Purchase Orders Replenishment POs sync with suppliers and accounting systems. Signature Packets is specific to Ironclad and Purchase Orders to Linnworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ironclad and Linnworks

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.

Ironclad Linnworks Sub-second propagation

DetectionIronclad notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing.

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

Linnworks Ironclad Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Linnworks for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on order and stock endpoints.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Ironclad: Limits are enforced per account per minute by endpoint: GET Workflows 400 and POST/PATCH Workflows 40; GET Records 600 and POST/PATCH Records 200; GET Entities 600 and POST/PATCH Entities 200; Webhooks 600; all other endpoints 800. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429, and Ironclad recommends exponential backoff with jitter.
  • Linnworks: Per-endpoint rate limits apply on the Linnworks API.

How the Ironclad and Linnworks connectors work

Ironclad

Integration surface
REST/JSON Public API (CLM API) at https://na1.ironcladapp.com/public/api/v1 (NA1 and EU1 regions plus a demo/sandbox), with a native Webhooks subscription API; described by an OpenAPI 3.1 spec.
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 - Authorization Code grant (PKCE for public clients) and Client Credentials grant for server-to-server; access tokens are Bearer, expire after 6 hours, and every endpoint is gated by a resource scope. The legacy static API bearer token was deprecated on 2024-11-22.
Change detection
Native webhook subscriptions (POST /webhooks) fire on 40+ workflow, approval, signature, document, and comment events, and Ironclad retries a failing endpoint up to 10 times over about 13.6 hours with exponential backoff. Otherwise poll the list endpoints by last-updated. There is no database change-data-capture log.
