Overview
In addition to creating orders manually or importing them via CSV, Gordon Cloud allows you to create orders automatically through integrations.
Integrations connect your existing systems—such as e-commerce platforms, transport management systems, or internal tools—directly to Gordon Cloud. This enables orders to be transferred automatically, without manual input.
By using integrations, you can streamline your order flow, reduce manual work, and ensure that delivery data is always accurate and up to date.
Benefits of using integrations
Using integrations to create orders provides several advantages:
Automation – Orders are created automatically without manual input
Accuracy – Reduces the risk of human error when entering data
Efficiency – Saves time for planners and dispatchers
Scalability – Easily handle larger order volumes
Real-time flow – Orders are transferred as they are created
This makes integrations a powerful option for businesses managing continuous or high-volume order flows.
Available integration options
Gordon Cloud supports different types of integrations depending on your setup and needs:
API integration
Use the Gordon API to build custom integrations with your internal systems or third-party tools. We provide comprehensive documentation and have dedicated specialists available to guide and support you throughout the integration process.
Plug-and-play integrations
Pre-built integrations allow for quick setup with minimal technical effort. These integrations are designed to work out of the box, reducing the need for custom development and enabling you to get started quickly. They are ideal for businesses that want a fast and reliable way to connect their existing tools with Gordon Cloud.
Examples include Shopify, WooCommerce, nShift, and Ingrid.
When to use integrations
Integrations are recommended when you:
Receive orders from another system (e.g. e-commerce or ERP)
Want to automate order creation
Handle recurring or high order volumes
Need a real-time connection between systems
If your order flow is manual or occasional, CSV import or manual creation may still be suitable alternatives.
