Connect DynamicWeb and SolidWorks

Connecting DynamicWeb and SolidWorks for a company could enable product information, design data, or engineering changes from SolidWorks to be made available in DynamicWeb. This could support more accurate online catalogs, automated updates to product listings, or improved coordination between engineering and e-commerce teams, depending on the specific business processes involved.

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

Why connect DynamicWeb and SolidWorks?

A company that operates both DynamicWeb and SolidWorks could benefit from enabling these systems to exchange data, as this could help streamline processes and reduce manual effort. Without a connection between the two, staff might need to enter the same product or design data into both platforms, increasing the risk of errors and inconsistencies. Over time, records could drift apart, leading to outdated or mismatched information in one or both systems. This situation could result in decisions being made based on incomplete or stale data, which could impact operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. If a connection were established, the kinds of data that could be exchanged would depend on the roles each system plays. For example, product design data created in SolidWorks could potentially be shared with DynamicWeb to ensure that product listings, specifications, or visuals on the web platform reflect the latest designs. Conversely, sales or customer data from DynamicWeb could be sent to SolidWorks to inform design adjustments or track demand trends. The specific data that can be exchanged depends on what each system makes available 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 DynamicWeb and SolidWorks 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.
