Why teams connect MongoDB and Shipwire

Give your engineers Shipwire's products, orders, and customers in MongoDB: 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 Returns, Purchase Orders, Trackings, Rates from Shipwire into MongoDB 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 MongoDB, 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 operational MongoDB data into a relational database, flattening nested documents into normalized tables for SQL reporting.
  • 02 Capture change stream events and propagate them to SaaS tools in near real time instead of running batch exports.
  • 03 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.
  • 04 Push Products, kits, and their dimensions and pricing from a PIM or ERP into the Shipwire catalog and keep SKUs aligned.

Common sync patterns

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Shipwire, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in MongoDB 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.

React to store changes

Updates in Shipwire arrive as row changes in MongoDB, so jobs and triggers can respond the moment an order, price, or stock level changes.

What you can sync between MongoDB 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.

MongoDB objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Embedded documents and arrays Nested structures that syncs flatten or map to related records in relational targets. Purchase Orders B2B orders with retailer-specific routing and compliance fields; managed via API alongside receivings for wholesale and marketplace fulfillment. Embedded documents and arrays is specific to MongoDB and Purchase Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes Keep lookups by sync key fast on large collections. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Indexes is specific to MongoDB and Trackings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only aggregation-defined sources for filtered sync datasets. 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. Views is specific to MongoDB and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Change streams The oplog-backed event feed that powers real-time change capture. 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. Change streams is specific to MongoDB and Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
GridFS files Chunked file storage whose metadata can be referenced by synced documents. 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. GridFS files is specific to MongoDB and Products to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical groupings of collections that scope a sync connection. Stock Real-time per-warehouse inventory levels; read-only, pulled into a database or storefront so availability reflects on-hand and backordered quantities. Databases is specific to MongoDB and Stock to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MongoDB 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.

MongoDB Shipwire Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MongoDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. MongoDB oplog and change streams (requires the database to run as a replica set — even single-node).

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
