Is this a packaged ShipStation connector or a custom build?
It is a Connectify-owned adapter, not a third-party packaged connector. We maintain the code, we monitor the runtime, and the fields, hooks, and reconciliation rules are shaped to your exact data model — not a generic schema we hope matches.
Do we own the integration code at the end?
Yes. The Connectify ShipStation adapter ships with full source escrow rights — at any point you can request a snapshot of the code, configuration, and runbooks. We prefer you stay on our managed runtime, but you are never locked in.
Can the ShipStation adapter handle our custom fields?
On first connection the adapter discovers every custom field, custom object and custom workflow inside your ShipStation tenant and presents them as first-class mappings — you decide which to mirror, which to ignore, and which to enrich.
What happens if ShipStation changes their API after we go live?
Our SRE team monitors ShipStation change announcements and rolls compatibility updates inside our maintenance retainer. If a breaking change ships, we own the migration; you don't pay extra to stay current and you don't field calls from the vendor.
How long does the ShipStation integration take to ship?
Our standard window is thirty days from signed scope to live ShipStation adapter in production, plus a one-week monitored stabilization phase. For San Francisco, California, that includes a sandbox loop with your team, parallel-run reconciliation, and a documented runbook handed to your operations lead.
How is data security handled?
Tokens and credentials live inside a hardware-backed secret store with audit logging on every read. The ShipStation adapter runs on isolated workers with deny-by-default egress, and every message is replayable from a tamper-evident journal for downstream forensics.
