Why teams connect Jobvite and Shopify

Keep the people who own accounts in Shopify in step with the workforce records in Jobvite, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.

Shopify runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Jobvite. Jobvite is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Stacksync syncs Abandoned Checkouts, Products, ProductMedias, ProductVariants in Shopify with Candidate, Requisition (Job), Application, Workflow Status in Jobvite field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Jobvite stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Shopify keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror the product catalog from a PIM or database into Shopify products, variants, and metafields.
  • 02 Sync orders, customers, and inventory into Postgres for operational reporting across stores.
  • 03 Push headcount-approved Requisitions from an internal planning database into Jobvite via POST /job so approved roles post to the career site automatically.
  • 04 Consolidate Applications, Offers, and Workflow Status into a warehouse for time-to-fill and funnel reporting across every requisition.

Common sync patterns

Deactivate access when someone leaves

When Jobvite marks a worker as departed, the matching user in Shopify is flagged or deactivated, so former employees do not keep CRM access after their last day.

One directory of people

A person's name, title, email, phone, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so both stop maintaining separate copies of the same individual.

Where Jobvite tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Jobvite, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in Shopify, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

What you can sync between Jobvite 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.

Jobvite objects Shopify objects How this pairing syncs
Attachment Resumes, cover letters, and files attached to a candidate; synced out to object storage or a document management system. ProductMedias Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Attachment is specific to Jobvite and ProductMedias to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offer Offer state tied to an application (extended, accepted, declined); read out for offer-acceptance reporting and written to downstream comp or HR systems. ProductVariants Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Offer is specific to Jobvite and ProductVariants to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Candidate Read from the candidate feed (GET /candidate) and written back via POST /candidate/updateCandidates to change status, notes, and disposition on each record. Orders Purchase transactions; pushed to ERPs for fulfillment and billing, and read into databases for reporting. Candidate is specific to Jobvite and Orders to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Requisition (Job) Job openings created or updated through POST /job and read from GET /jobFeed; maps to opening tables in an ATS reporting warehouse. Customers Buyer records; matched to CRM contacts for marketing and lifetime-value analysis. Requisition (Job) is specific to Jobvite and Customers to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Application Links a candidate to one requisition with its workflow state; read for pipeline reporting and status written back through the candidate update call. Abandoned Checkouts Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Application is specific to Jobvite and Abandoned Checkouts to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflow Status The pipeline stage per application (Screen, Interview, Offer, Hired); updated through POST /candidate/updateCandidates to advance records. Products Catalog entries; often mastered in a PIM or ERP and written into Shopify. Workflow Status is specific to Jobvite and Products to Shopify — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Jobvite 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.

Jobvite Shopify Sub-second propagation

DetectionJobvite notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Jobvite: Roughly 15 requests per minute and 850 per hour, reset at midnight Pacific, with per-endpoint daily caps (e.g. 20,000/day candidate GET/PUT, 500/day employee sync); 429 on exceed.
  • Shopify: GraphQL uses a calculated query-cost budget; the REST API uses a leaky-bucket model.

How the Jobvite and Shopify connectors work

Jobvite

Integration surface
REST API (JSON) with candidate, requisition (job), and employee feed endpoints under https://api.jobvite.com/{version}
Authentication
API key (api) and secret (sc) plus company ID (companyId), sent in request headers since Jobvite's April 1, 2024 move from URL-query to header-based auth. Credentials are provisioned per customer by Jobvite Support.
Change detection
A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events; otherwise Stacksync polls the candidate and job feeds on a schedule and diffs results, since records carry no per-item modified-date filter.
