Why teams connect Reltio and Shopware

Give your engineers Shopware's products, orders, and customers in Reltio: 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 Orders, Order Line Items, Order Deliveries, Order Transactions from Shopware into Reltio and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Shopware holds, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Reltio, such as new prices, stock levels, or fulfillment status, sync back into Shopware 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 Sync Relations (affiliations, hierarchies, households) between Reltio and a CRM or graph so account and affiliation structures stay aligned.
  • 02 Feed Interactions (transactions, visits, events) into Reltio to enrich entity profiles, then read them back for 360-degree reporting.
  • 03 Consolidate orders and customers from multiple `sales_channel` storefronts into one Postgres database for cross-channel analysis.
  • 04 Two-way sync of the `product` catalog — titles, nested price arrays, and stock — between Shopware and an ERP or PIM so pricing and inventory stay aligned.

Common sync patterns

Order data where your code can use it

Orders and their status become rows in Reltio for routing, fulfillment, and reporting, without polling the platform.

Controlled write-back

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

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Shopware, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in Reltio as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

What you can sync between Reltio and Shopware

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.

Reltio objects Shopware objects How this pairing syncs
Relations Typed relationships between two entities (affiliations, hierarchies, employment, households); read and written via /relations to keep account hierarchies and affiliation graphs aligned across systems. Customers Storefront customer accounts (`customer`) with addresses and group; synced two-way with a CRM or support tool. Relations is specific to Reltio and Customers to Shopware — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Crosswalks Per-entity references to the source systems and their record IDs; written when loading records so Reltio ties each source contribution to a golden record, and read to trace lineage back to origin systems. Orders Order headers (`order`) with totals, state, and sales-channel reference; read out to accounting and written back for status updates. Crosswalks is specific to Reltio and Orders to Shopware — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Interactions Transactional or event records linked to entities (purchases, visits, activities); read and written via /interactions to enrich profiles and power 360-degree reporting. Order Line Items Per-order product rows (`order_line_item`); read alongside the order for revenue and fulfillment reporting. Interactions is specific to Reltio and Order Line Items to Shopware — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Matches (Potential Matches) Candidate duplicate pairs produced by match rules; read to review, and resolved with merge, unmerge, or not-a-match actions to control survivorship. Order Deliveries Shipping records (`order_delivery`) carrying delivery state and tracking codes; written back from a 3PL or WMS. Matches (Potential Matches) is specific to Reltio and Order Deliveries to Shopware — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activity Log Immutable audit trail of changes to entities and relations via /activities; read-only, used for history, lineage, and compliance reporting. Order Transactions Payment records (`order_transaction`) holding payment method and state; read to reconcile against a billing or finance system. Activity Log is specific to Reltio and Order Transactions to Shopware — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Data Change Requests (DCR) Stewardship change proposals routed through approval workflows; read and written to feed or track governed edits to golden records. Sales Channels Per-storefront configuration (`sales_channel`); used to scope and consolidate orders and customers across multiple storefronts. Data Change Requests (DCR) is specific to Reltio and Sales Channels to Shopware — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Reltio and Shopware

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.

Reltio Shopware Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Reltio for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling the REST API on updateTime (epoch-ms), for example filter=gt(updateTime,<timestamp>), for entities and relations changed past a stored.

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

Shopware Reltio Sub-second propagation

DetectionShopware notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. App-system webhooks on entity events (product.written, order.written, customer.written) deliver the changed record's primaryKey and updated field.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Reltio: Reltio applies per-tenant API throttling and returns HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) when limits are exceeded; there is no single fixed request-per-second cap published for all tenants, and throttling is tuned per tenant and environment. Large loads and reads use bulk create/update and the asynchronous export/jobs API rather than row-by-row calls.
  • Shopware: No general throttle on Admin API entity endpoints; Shopware's RateLimiter guards only specific routes (login, oauth, password reset, guest order/contact) and is configurable on self-hosted stores.

How the Reltio and Shopware connectors work

Reltio

Integration surface
Reltio REST API (Data API) — /entities, /relations, /interactions, /activities, plus Match, RDM (reference data), and Data Change Request endpoints; base URL https://{environment}.reltio.com/reltio/api/{tenantId}
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens obtained from Reltio's central auth server (POST https://auth.reltio.com/oauth/token, client-credentials or password grant, application/x-www-form-urlencoded) and sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>; access tokens expire after about 60 minutes and are renewed with a refresh token, and are scoped per API (entities_api, relations_api, interactions_api, configuration_api, graphs_api)
Change detection
Polling the REST API on updateTime (epoch-ms), for example filter=gt(updateTime,<timestamp>), for entities and relations changed past a stored watermark. Reltio has no CDC log external tools consume; separately, Reltio's event streaming can publish entity change events (created, changed, removed) to a customer-configured message queue (Amazon SQS/SNS, Google Pub/Sub, Azure Service Bus, or Kafka), which is a queue feed rather than HTTP webhooks.
