What the Katana–Cybership integration does

Cybership is a cloud-based warehouse management system for third-party logistics providers and for brands that run fulfillment in-house. It covers inventory, receiving, picking, packing, shipping, and multi-client operations in one platform.

By connecting Katana with Cybership, you can:

  • Import orders as sales orders: Cybership orders become Katana sales orders, and each shipped package becomes a fulfillment with carrier and tracking details.

  • Import products by SKU: Existing Katana products are matched by SKU, and SKU aliases bridge SKUs that differ between the two systems.

  • See read-only stock levels: Cybership stock numbers appear as external inventory at each warehouse's mapped Katana location.

  • Map warehouses to locations: Each Cybership warehouse links to its own dedicated Katana location, and only mapped warehouses sync.

Before you start

  • An active Cybership (ShipOS) account.

  • A Cybership API Key, created in your ShipOS dashboard. The key starts with cyb_.

  • A Katana account with permission to manage integrations.

How your daily workflow looks

  1. Orders reach Cybership from your sales channels.

  2. Once an order reaches the configured import-from status, it is imported into Katana as a sales order.

  3. Cybership picks, packs, and ships the order.

  4. Each shipped package lands in Katana as a fulfillment with carrier and tracking details.

  5. Stock levels from Cybership update as read-only external inventory at your mapped locations.

  6. You plan production and purchasing in Katana using up-to-date orders and stock.
