Why teams connect MySQL and Shipwire

Give your engineers Shipwire's products, orders, and customers in MySQL: 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 Trackings, Rates, Orders, Products from Shipwire into MySQL 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 MySQL, 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 Two-way sync between a MySQL application database and a CRM so operational records and sales records stay identical
  • 02 Expose SaaS objects as MySQL tables so legacy internal tools built on MySQL can read live business data
  • 03 Read Stock levels per warehouse into an operational database or storefront so availability and backorder state reflect real inventory.
  • 04 Sync Receivings (advance ship notices) and reconcile them against Purchase Orders so inbound supplier shipments are visible as they land.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from MySQL back into Shipwire, keeping the store authoritative on what it owns.

Read the store's data with a query

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

What you can sync between MySQL 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.

MySQL objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Returns Return orders raised against existing Orders; created via API and read back into support or analytics systems for reverse-logistics tracking. Tables is specific to MySQL and Returns to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Purchase Orders B2B orders with retailer-specific routing and compliance fields; managed via API alongside receivings for wholesale and marketplace fulfillment. Views is specific to MySQL and Purchase Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Columns is specific to MySQL and Trackings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. 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. Primary and Unique Keys is specific to MySQL and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. 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. JSON Columns is specific to MySQL and Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. 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. Stored Procedures is specific to MySQL and Products to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MySQL 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.

MySQL Shipwire Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MySQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing (requires log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON when.

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • MySQL: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources.
  • 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.
