Unify Shopware & Kentico: Seamless eCommerce and Content Experiences
Connect your powerful Shopware storefront with Kentico's robust DXP to automate operations, centralize data, and deliver personalized customer journeys with AI-powered iPaaS.
The Disconnect: Why Fragmented eCommerce & Content Systems Hinder Growth
Operating Shopware and Kentico as standalone systems creates significant operational inefficiencies and limits your ability to deliver a truly unified digital experience. Manual data synchronization is prone to errors, costly, and inherently slow, directly impacting customer satisfaction and revenue.
-
Manual Data Entry & Reconciliation: Tedious, error-prone processes for orders, customer details, and product updates between systems.
-
Inaccurate Inventory: Delayed stock updates lead to overselling in Shopware or Kentico, resulting in backorders, cancellations, and frustrated customers.
-
Fragmented Customer View: Customer data silos prevent a complete understanding of purchase history and preferences, hindering personalized marketing and support.
-
Slow Time-to-Market: Delays in product information (descriptions, images, pricing) flowing from PIM/ERP to both eCommerce platforms.
-
Operational Bottlenecks: Manual order processing slows fulfillment, impacting delivery times and operational costs.
-
Limited Scalability: Point-to-point integrations become brittle and unmanageable as your business grows.

Deep Dive into Shopware & Kentico Integration: Architecture & Flow
Our iPaaS provides the robust, flexible, and secure foundation for integrating Shopware and Kentico. It acts as the central orchestration layer, managing data flow, transformations, and error handling with an API-first, event-driven approach.
Data Flow Steps
1. Connect: Establish secure connections to Shopware's Admin API/Store API and Kentico's REST API using pre-built connectors.
2. Listen: Configure webhooks in both Shopware (e.g., `order.written`, `product.written`) and Kentico (e.g., `rest/webhooks` for new orders, content updates) to capture events in real-time.
3. Transform: Visually map and transform data structures between Shopware and Kentico's schemas using the iPaaS's low-code mapping canvas.
4. Orchestrate: Design multi-step workflows to define business logic, conditional routing, and error handling for each integration scenario.
5. Validate: Implement data validation rules to ensure data quality before it reaches the target system, preventing bad data propagation.
6. Sync: Execute the integration flow, pushing transformed and validated data to the respective target system's API.
7. Monitor: Continuously track integration health, performance, and data flows through centralized dashboards and alerts.

Integration Use Cases
Explore how the integration behaves in real business scenarios, with clearly defined steps, outcomes, and execution patterns.
Automated Order Fulfillment & Status Sync
When a customer places an order in Shopware, the iPaaS instantly captures the order, transforms it, and pushes it to Kentico (acting as a central hub or directly to an ERP/OMS connected to Kentico). Fulfillment updates, including shipment tracking, are then synced back to Kentico and Shopware, providing real-time visibility to customers.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Customer completes checkout in Shopware.
- 1 Shopware `order.written` webhook triggers iPaaS workflow.
- 2 iPaaS extracts Shopware Order, Line Items, Customer, and Address data.
- 3 Data is mapped to Kentico's `Order`, `OrderItem`, `Customer`, `Address` schema.
- 4 iPaaS creates new `Order` in Kentico (or pushes to ERP/OMS via Kentico).
- 5 Fulfillment system updates order status/tracking. This triggers an update to Kentico.
- 6 Kentico `Order` update triggers iPaaS to update Shopware `Delivery` and `Order` state.
Business Outcome
Accelerated order-to-cash cycle, reduced manual order entry errors, improved customer satisfaction with timely updates.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- Order Status Mapping: Map Shopware's `stateId` values (e.g., `open`, `paid`, `shipped`) to Kentico's `OrderStatus` (e.g., `Pending`, `Processing`, `Shipped`).
- Product Attribute Harmonization: Combine multiple Shopware custom fields into a single Kentico `ContentItem` field or structured JSON.
- Currency Conversion: Automatically convert `amountTotal` or `Price` if Shopware and Kentico operate with different base currencies, using real-time exchange rates.
- Address Standardization: Parse Shopware's `street` into Kentico's `Line1` and `Line2` if needed, and standardize country/state codes.
- Inventory Aggregation/Disaggregation: If Shopware tracks inventory at a product level and Kentico at a variant level, logic to sum/split stock quantities is applied.
🛡️ Error Handling
- Invalid Product SKU: If an order line item from Shopware references a non-existent SKU in Kentico/ERP, the iPaaS logs the error, sends an alert, and can either skip the line item, place the order on hold, or map to a default product.
- API Rate Limit Exceeded: The iPaaS automatically pauses or throttles requests, retrying when the rate limit resets, preventing service interruption.
- Data Type Mismatch: If Shopware sends a string where Kentico expects a number, the iPaaS can attempt automatic type conversion or flag the error for mapping adjustment.
- Duplicate Customer Entry: AI-assisted deduplication identifies potential duplicates and merges them based on predefined rules or flags them for manual review.
- Network Interruption: The iPaaS retries the operation with exponential backoff until connectivity is restored, ensuring eventual consistency.
