Why teams connect Linnworks and Magento

Keep the storefront in step with the back office: Magento and Linnworks share products, inventory, and orders in real time, in both directions.

Magento runs the storefront and takes the orders; Linnworks owns the item master, the stock on hand, and the finance behind every transaction. The two overlap wherever the same products, customers, and sales matter to both — and when re-keying or an overnight batch is what connects them, the store oversells items it can't ship, quotes prices finance never set, or leaves buyers waiting on status that already changed.

Stacksync syncs Carts / quotes, Products, Configurable / variant products, Categories in Magento with Open Orders, Processed Orders, Stock Items, Stock Levels in Linnworks field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — stock and pricing from Linnworks, order and customer detail from Magento — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep MSI inventory source-item quantities aligned between a WMS/ERP and Magento so storefront stock matches the warehouse.
  • 02 Read new Orders to trigger provisioning, accounting, or 3PL fulfillment in an operational database as they are placed.
  • 03 Keep stock levels consistent between Linnworks and external systems so multichannel listings stay aligned with sellable stock
  • 04 Mirror processed orders, refunds, and returns into a warehouse for margin reporting across channels

Common sync patterns

Where Linnworks is the inventory system of record: stock stays accurate

Available quantities from Linnworks publish to Magento, so the store shows what can actually ship and stops overselling.

New orders reach the back office

An order captured in Magento creates the matching record in Linnworks with customer, line items, and totals, so fulfillment and invoicing start without re-entry.

One product catalog

Where both systems keep item records, SKUs, descriptions, and attributes stay aligned so the store and the back office describe the same product.

What you can sync between Linnworks and Magento

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.

Linnworks objects Magento objects How this pairing syncs
Purchase Orders Replenishment POs sync with suppliers and accounting systems. Carts / quotes Active and guest carts (quotes) with items and totals; read for abandoned-cart analysis (not available on the Cloud Service subset). Purchase Orders is specific to Linnworks and Carts / quotes to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Suppliers Vendor records keep procurement data consistent across tools. Products Catalog items keyed by SKU; carry created_at/updated_at for incremental polling and are written two-way from a PIM or ERP into the storefront. Suppliers is specific to Linnworks and Products to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Channel Listings Marketplace and webstore listing mappings tie channel products to internal SKUs. Configurable / variant products Parent configurable products link to simple product variants by attribute; synced so size/color SKUs and their prices stay aligned with source systems. Channel Listings is specific to Linnworks and Configurable / variant products to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Returns & Refunds Post-sale records flow to finance and support systems. Categories Catalog tree and product-to-category assignments; written into Magento to control merchandising and read out for taxonomy reporting. Returns & Refunds is specific to Linnworks and Categories to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Shipping Services Carrier and service definitions support label and tracking data in order syncs. Orders Sales orders with line items, totals, and status; typically read out of Magento into a warehouse or ERP for fulfillment and revenue reporting. Shipping Services is specific to Linnworks and Orders to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Open Orders Unshipped orders aggregated from sales channels sync into ERPs and fulfillment systems. Customers Customer accounts and address book; synced two-way with a CRM so order history and contact records stay consistent. Open Orders is specific to Linnworks and Customers to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Linnworks and Magento

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.

Linnworks Magento 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 Magento through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Magento Linnworks Sub-second propagation

DetectionMagento notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with searchCriteria filters on updated_at (catalog, sales, and customer entities carry created_at/updated_at).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Linnworks: Per-endpoint rate limits apply on the Linnworks API.
  • Magento: No fixed request-per-minute cap on PaaS/on-prem; responses page via searchCriteria pageSize/currentPage under a default maximum page size of 300 (Web API Input Limits), with /async/bulk endpoints for large writes.
