Automated Continuous Printify Replication to SQLite



Use CData Sync for automated, continuous, customizable Printify replication to SQLite.

Always-on applications rely on automatic failover capabilities and real-time data access. CData Sync integrates live Printify data into your SQLite instance, allowing you to consolidate all of your data into a single location for archiving, reporting, analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence and more.

Configure SQLite as a Replication Destination

Using CData Sync, you can replicate Printify data to SQLite. To add a replication destination, navigate to the Connections tab.

  1. Click Add Connection.
  2. Select SQLite as a destination.
  3. Enter the necessary connection properties. To connect to SQLite, set the following:
    • Data Source: The path to the database. You can replicate to an existing database or to a new one. The application must have permissions to access the database.
  4. Click Test Connection to ensure that the connection is configured properly.
  5. Click Save Changes.

Configure the Printify Connection

You can configure a connection to Printify from the Connections tab. To add a connection to your Printify account, navigate to the Connections tab.

  1. Click Add Connection.
  2. Select a source (Printify).
  3. Configure the connection properties.

    Start by setting the Profile connection property to the location of the Printify Profile on disk (e.g. C:\profiles\Profile.apip). Next, set the ProfileSettings connection property to the connection string for Printify (see below).

    Printify API Profile Settings

    In order to authenticate to Printify, you'll need to provide your API Key. To get your API Key navigate to My Profile, then Connections. In the Connections section you will be able to generate your Personal Access Token (API Key) and set your Token Access Scopes. Personal Access Tokens are valid for one year. An expired Personal Access Token can be re-generated using the same steps after it expires. Set the API Key to your Personal Access Token in the ProfileSettings property to connect.

  4. Click Connect to ensure that the connection is configured properly.
  5. Click Save Changes.

Configure Replication Queries

CData Sync enables you to control replication with a point-and-click interface and with SQL queries. For each replication you wish to configure, navigate to the Jobs tab and click Add Job. Select the Source and Destination for your replication.

Replicate Entire Tables

To replicate an entire table, click Add Tables in the Tables section, choose the table(s) you wish to replicate, and click Add Selected Tables.

Customize Your Replication

You can use the Columns and Query tabs of a task to customize your replication. The Columns tab allows you to specify which columns to replicate, rename the columns at the destination, and even perform operations on the source data before replicating. The Query tab allows you to add filters, grouping, and sorting to the replication.

Schedule Your Replication

In the Schedule section, you can schedule a job to run automatically, configuring the job to run after specified intervals ranging from once every 10 minutes to once every month.

Once you have configured the replication job, click Save Changes. You can configure any number of jobs to manage the replication of your Printify data to SQLite.
