E-Commerce Connector Engine for Odoo

This is the plumbing every store connector needs and nobody wants to write twice: identity mapping so a re-run never duplicates an order, a job queue that keeps its failures instead of losing them, and a log you can actually answer questions from.

On its own it does nothing visible, and that is deliberate. You install a platform connector alongside it and Odoo pulls this in automatically as a dependency. It is free precisely because it is a dependency rather than a product.

What it provides

• Identity mapping. Every external record is mapped to its Odoo counterpart before anything is written, so a re-run converges on the same record instead of creating a second one.
• A job queue that keeps failures. Nothing is lost when a sync stops halfway.
• Field mapping. Any store field to any Odoo field.
• A tax mapping table, so an unmapped rate can stop an order rather than silently under-billing it.
• A readable sync log, with the payload attached to the job that failed.

How it works

1. Install a platform connector. Odoo pulls this in automatically as a dependency.
2. Add your store. The connector adds its own tab with credentials and settings.
3. Import and review. Nothing is confirmed, invoiced or written back until you say so.
4. Watch the job queue. Sync Jobs shows what worked, what is retrying, and what needs you.

How failures are separated

• Failed is transient: a dropped connection, a rate limit, a 502. It is retried automatically with exponential backoff.
• Needs attention means something has to change before it can work: a tax with no mapping, a product not in Odoo, a revoked key. These are never retried on a timer, because a timer cannot fix them, and each one carries the sentence saying what to do.
• Every job keeps the exact payload that caused it, so a retry replays the failure without asking the store for the data again.
• There is a Retry button on every job, and a dashboard filtered to what still needs a person.

The connectors that build on it

Install whichever platform you sell on. Each one adds its own credentials tab and settings, and shares this engine's duplicate prevention and retry behavior.

• Shopify Connector, on the GraphQL Admin API.
• Magento 2 Connector, on the Magento REST API.
• WooCommerce Connector, on the WooCommerce REST API v3.

Requirements

• Odoo 16, 17, 18 or 19, Community or Enterprise.
• Depends on Sales and Inventory, both standard.
• Odoo Online cannot run third-party modules that contain Python, which is Odoo's rule rather than ours. Odoo.sh and self-hosted installs are both fine.
