I’m attempting to retrieve the customer_id from BigCommerce and assign it to the AdditionalAttribute1 field in Dear Inventory. My goal is to achieve this integration through Zapier. I’ve already configured it to extract data from BigCommerce. The following step involves utilizing a webhook with a PUT request to update Dear Inventory. Could anyone guide me on how to effectively map the users between BigCommerce and Dear Inventory? Additionally, are there other preferable methods for achieving this integration? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Based on my experience, an effective way to map users between BigCommerce and Dear Inventory is to ensure you have a common identifier, possibly an email or unique customer ID, that both platforms recognize. This ensures accurate mapping of customers. In Zapier, using filters can help manage the data flow and only process records that require mapping. Additionally, you might consider using Dear’s API directly if you’re looking for more detailed customization and control over the integration process. Direct API integration might offer more robustness and flexibility compared to automated Zapier workflows.
