Why teams connect Ldap and Orderful

Connect the tickets, records, and events in Orderful to the systems engineering runs in Ldap, kept current in real time and in both directions.

Orderful is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. Ldap is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.

Stacksync syncs Transactions, Trading partners, Relationships, Validation guidelines in Orderful with Attributes, Operational attributes, Schema (subschema subentry), Entries in Ldap field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync inbound purchase orders from Orderful into an ERP or Postgres so fulfillment starts without manual EDI handling.
  • 02 Push invoices and advance ship notices from the ERP through Orderful to retail trading partners.
  • 03 Write user entries and group memberships into an LDAP directory from an HR system of record to drive downstream application access.
  • 04 Read person, group, and organizationalUnit entries into a warehouse for periodic access reviews and audit evidence without LDIF exports.

Common sync patterns

One shared record across both systems

Where both systems keep records for the same contacts, items, or users, a correction in either updates the other, ending dual maintenance and keeping IDs aligned for every other flow.

Where Ldap tracks engineering work: requests become issues

A ticket or request raised in Orderful opens or updates a matching issue in Ldap, and status, comments, and resolution flow back, so support and engineering work the same item instead of retyping it.

Where Ldap moves messages between services: activity lands on the stream

Records created or changed in Orderful publish to the queue or topic in Ldap as they happen, so downstream services react to real events rather than polling for them.

What you can sync between Ldap and Orderful

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.

Ldap objects Orderful objects How this pairing syncs
Attributes The typed name/value pairs on each entry (cn, mail, memberOf, objectClass); the schema defines which attributes each objectClass allows, and mappings are built per attribute. Webhook events Push notifications for inbound documents and transaction status changes Attributes is specific to Ldap and Webhook events to Orderful — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Operational attributes Server-maintained metadata such as modifyTimestamp, createTimestamp, entryUUID, entryCSN, and uSNChanged; read to drive incremental polling and to key entries stably across syncs. Transactions EDI documents such as 850 purchase orders, 810 invoices, and 856 ship notices, represented as JSON Operational attributes is specific to Ldap and Transactions to Orderful — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schema (subschema subentry) The objectClass and attribute-type definitions the server exposes; read to validate that written attributes exist and are single- or multi-valued as expected. Trading partners The retailers, carriers, and suppliers a company exchanges documents with Schema (subschema subentry) is specific to Ldap and Trading partners to Orderful — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Entries The fundamental unit of an LDAP directory, each addressed by a distinguished name (DN) and typed by its objectClass; synced two-way as records, with the DN driving upserts and attribute-level updates. Relationships Active partner connections per transaction type that govern what can be sent and received Entries is specific to Ldap and Relationships to Orderful — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Person entries (inetOrgPerson / user) People held under objectClasses such as inetOrgPerson, person, or Active Directory user; synced two-way to create accounts and update attributes like mail, cn, and telephoneNumber. Validation guidelines Partner-specific rules transactions are checked against before delivery Person entries (inetOrgPerson / user) is specific to Ldap and Validation guidelines to Orderful — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups (groupOfNames / posixGroup) Group entries whose member or uniqueMember attributes list DNs; synced two-way to add and remove membership as teams and entitlements change. Acknowledgments 997 functional acknowledgments confirming receipt of transmitted documents Groups (groupOfNames / posixGroup) is specific to Ldap and Acknowledgments to Orderful — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ldap and Orderful

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.

Ldap Orderful Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Ldap for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No universal native change feed.

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

Orderful Ldap Sub-second propagation

DetectionOrderful notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks push inbound transactions and status events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Ldap: LDAP defines no request quota; throughput is bounded by the server's sizelimit and timelimit administrative limits, connection and thread caps, and the CPU/IO it shares with live authentication traffic, so large syncs can contend with production lookups and must page results.
  • Orderful: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.

How the Ldap and Orderful connectors work

Ldap

Integration surface
LDAPv3 protocol (RFC 4511) over TCP, typically LDAPS on port 636 or StartTLS on 389; reaches any LDAPv3 directory server - OpenLDAP, Microsoft Active Directory, 389 Directory Server, Oracle Unified Directory, PingDS/ForgeRock, NetIQ eDirectory, Apache Directory.
Authentication
A bind DN and password (simple bind), typically over TLS, using a service account with rights to the target subtree. SASL mechanisms - GSSAPI/Kerberos, DIGEST-MD5, or EXTERNAL with a client certificate - are available where the server supports them.
Change detection
No universal native change feed. Incremental sync polls the modifyTimestamp operational attribute (or entryCSN / uSNChanged on servers that expose them) for entries changed since the last cursor; detecting deletes needs a server changelog or tombstones because a plain search cannot see removed entries. Some servers add Persistent Search or RFC 4533 content-sync (syncrepl), but that support is server-specific. No webhooks.
