Connect BigCommerce and GraphQL

Connecting BigCommerce and GraphQL for a company using both could allow product, order, and customer data from BigCommerce to be accessed or managed via GraphQL queries. This could support custom storefronts, reporting solutions, or integrations with other business systems that use GraphQL as an interface for data exchange.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between BigCommerce and GraphQL around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect BigCommerce and GraphQL?

: A company operating both BigCommerce and a system using GraphQL could benefit from connecting these platforms to allow for more efficient and accurate data exchange. Without such a connection, teams may need to enter the same information in multiple places, which increases the chances of errors and inconsistencies. Over time, records in each system could diverge, resulting in outdated or conflicting information being used for decision-making, order fulfillment, or customer service. Manual processes also slow down operations and make it harder to respond quickly to business changes. If a connection were established, it could enable the transfer of key business data such as product details, inventory levels, customer information, and order statuses between BigCommerce and the GraphQL-based system. This could reduce manual work, help maintain consistent records, and support more timely and informed decisions. The specific data that can be exchanged, and the way it is exchanged, would depend on the capabilities each system exposes through its API and would need to be determined for each situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what BigCommerce and GraphQL make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
