Connect Centric and Icecat

Connecting Centric and Icecat for a company could enable the transfer of product information, such as specifications and images, from Icecat’s catalog into Centric. This could support more efficient product data management and reduce manual entry, provided the necessary technical and security requirements are addressed during implementation.

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

Why connect Centric and Icecat?

A company operating both Centric and Icecat could benefit from connecting these systems to enable data exchange, which could support more accurate and efficient business processes. Without such a connection, staff may need to enter the same product or catalog information into both systems, increasing the risk of errors and consuming valuable time. Disconnected systems can result in records diverging over time, leading to inconsistencies in product details, pricing, or availability. This can affect decision-making if teams rely on outdated or mismatched data, potentially impacting sales, inventory management, or supplier relationships. If a connection were established, the types of data exchanged could include product specifications, images, descriptions, pricing, and stock levels, as these are commonly managed by solutions like Centric (often used for product lifecycle management) and Icecat (a widely recognized product content syndication platform). However, the specific data that can be exchanged always depends on the capabilities and permissions provided by each system’s API, and must be determined for each individual case.

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 Centric and Icecat 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.
