Why teams connect Google Cloud Platform and Shopify

Sync Shopify into Google Cloud Platform continuously and push warehouse results back onto CRM records, one two-way connection instead of two pipelines.

The CRM feeds the warehouse and the warehouse should feed the CRM: relationship data flows one way, and computed scores, segments, and customer context flow back. Most teams build the first half as a batch pipeline and never quite get to the second.

Stacksync does both with one connection. ProductMedias, ProductVariants, Orders, Customers from Shopify land in Google Cloud Platform as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Google Cloud Platform write back to fields in Shopify. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • Mirror the product catalog from a PIM or database into Shopify products, variants, and metafields.
  • Sync orders, customers, and inventory into Postgres for operational reporting across stores.
  • Publish change events to Pub/Sub so downstream services react to record updates as they happen.

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Shopify are queryable in Google Cloud Platform moments after they change, so dashboards stop lagging the reality they describe.

Scores and segments back on the record

Lead scores, churn risk, or usage segments computed in Google Cloud Platform appear as fields in Shopify, where the people working accounts actually see them.

A single customer view

Join Shopify's relationship data with billing, product, and support data in Google Cloud Platform to build the customer picture the CRM alone cannot hold.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Platform and Shopify

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.

Google Cloud Platform objects Shopify objects
Pub/Sub topics Event streams used to move change events between systems in near real time. Products Catalog entries; often mastered in a PIM or ERP and written into Shopify.
Firestore documents Document data read and written through the Firestore API for app-facing syncs. ProductMedias Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Spanner tables Strongly consistent relational tables accessed via SQL for transactional workloads. ProductVariants Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
BigQuery datasets Namespaces that group tables; syncs target tables within a dataset. Orders Purchase transactions; pushed to ERPs for fulfillment and billing, and read into databases for reporting.
BigQuery tables The primary analytics destination, written through load jobs or the Storage Write API and queried with SQL. Customers Buyer records; matched to CRM contacts for marketing and lifetime-value analysis.
Cloud SQL databases Managed Postgres, MySQL, and SQL Server instances synced like ordinary relational databases. Abandoned Checkouts Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.

How the Google Cloud Platform and Shopify connectors work

Google Cloud Platform

Integration surface
Per-service REST and gRPC APIs; BigQuery speaks SQL and Cloud SQL exposes standard database wire protocols
Authentication
IAM service accounts with OAuth 2.0 tokens
Change detection
Varies by service: log-based CDC on Cloud SQL (logical replication or binlog, also via Datastream), Pub/Sub for event delivery, polling for BigQuery tables
Capabilities
read · write · CDC · webhooks
Rate limits
Quotas are set per service and per project; BigQuery, Pub/Sub, and Cloud SQL each enforce their own limits

Shopify

Integration surface
GraphQL Admin API (primary) and REST Admin API (legacy)
Authentication
OAuth via a custom Shopify app: admin creates an app in the Shopify Dev Dashboard, enables required API scopes, sets the Stacksync redirect URL, then supplies shop name + Client ID and Client Secret to Stacksync
Change detection
Webhook topics per resource, with polling on updated_at as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
GraphQL uses a calculated query-cost budget; the REST API uses a leaky-bucket model.
