Keep Zalando and GitLab updated automatically.
Today you sign in to the seller account, look at what sold and carry it over by hand. What you already processed you track somewhere else. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in Zalando lands in GitLab by itself, in the shape GitLab expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

Zalando and GitLab do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.
Zalando
A marketplace supplies orders with their own order number and their own lines, plus returns and cancellations that arrive separately.
GitLab
A task list or table wants to know where something belongs, and only stays usable with a fixed layout.

Common questions
Can you connect Zalando to GitLab?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Zalando and GitLab, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Which GitLab project or list do the tasks land in?
The project or list you choose. That keeps everything in one place rather than scattered, and follow-up does not depend on someone remembering.
Can I decide what goes into the GitLab task or row?
Yes. When setting it up you pick which details from Zalando come along, so a task or row in GitLab has just enough context.
Do I still have to log into Zalando once the connector runs?
No. Once it runs, everything you now look up in the Zalando seller account arrives in GitLab by itself. You only open Zalando when you want to check something yourself.
What does connecting Zalando and GitLab cost?
You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.
How often does Zalando sync with GitLab?
That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.
Does the connector also pick up Zalando returns and cancellations?
Yes. Besides new orders, Schakel also sees returns and cancellations on Zalando, so GitLab does not lag behind what actually sold.
What if Zalando or GitLab is briefly unavailable?
Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.
Missing something you need?
