Why teams connect Shipwire and SQL Server

Give your engineers Shipwire's products, orders, and customers in SQL Server: 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 SQL Server 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 SQL Server, 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 Feed a cloud warehouse from SQL Server continuously using native CDC instead of SSIS batch jobs
  • 02 Consolidate branch or plant databases into a single operational SQL Server hub
  • 03 Pull Returns and tracking.delivered events into a support or analytics database for reverse-logistics and delivery-SLA reporting.
  • 04 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.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from SQL Server 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 SQL Server 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 Shipwire and SQL Server

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.

Shipwire objects SQL Server objects How this pairing syncs
Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. Receivings is specific to Shipwire and Primary and Unique Keys to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Returns Return orders raised against existing Orders; created via API and read back into support or analytics systems for reverse-logistics tracking. CDC Change Tables System-populated tables holding captured inserts, updates, and deletes for consumers. Returns is specific to Shipwire and CDC Change Tables to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase Orders B2B orders with retailer-specific routing and compliance fields; managed via API alongside receivings for wholesale and marketplace fulfillment. Stored Procedures T-SQL logic that can validate or post-process synced rows. Purchase Orders is specific to Shipwire and Stored Procedures to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Databases Instance-level databases that scope a sync's reads and writes. Trackings is specific to Shipwire and Databases to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Schemas Namespaces (dbo and custom) used to organize synced tables. Rates is specific to Shipwire and Schemas to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Orders is specific to Shipwire and Tables to SQL Server — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Shipwire and SQL Server

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.

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

SQL Server Shipwire Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in SQL Server are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. SQL Server Native Change Data Capture (CDC).

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

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.
  • SQL Server: No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance resources, licensing tier, and connection limits.
