Connect Miva and SolidWorks

Connecting Miva and SolidWorks for a company could enable the transfer of product data, such as specifications or design files, from engineering to e-commerce operations. This could support more accurate product listings and reduce manual data entry, helping to ensure that online product information reflects the latest engineering changes.

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

Why connect Miva and SolidWorks?

A company that uses both Miva and SolidWorks could benefit from connecting these systems to enable data exchange between e-commerce and product design functions. If such a connection were established, it could reduce the need for manual data entry, which often leads to errors, inconsistencies, or delays. Without a connection, teams may have to enter product information separately into each system, increasing the risk of duplicate records and making it harder to keep data synchronized. This could result in situations where sales, inventory, or product specifications diverge between the systems, causing operational inefficiencies or decisions based on outdated information. Common types of data that could be exchanged between an e-commerce platform and a CAD or product design system include product specifications, item numbers, descriptions, and inventory levels. The specific data that can be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API and must be determined for each individual 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 Miva 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.
