Step 4: Paste the token and your store name you copied to the respective fields, as in below boxes and click on 'Submit' button.


Notes:
  1. Shopify restricted Personal Identifiable data in their basic plan. It means for passing orders, they might or might not provide customer name, mobile number, address, and any other identifiable data. So please check with Shopify if basic plan is enough or you need higher plan to pass PI data.
  2. After inputing your keys and submitting, your quantity and orders will be syncd every one hour.
  3. Make sure that you do NOT change the SKU numbers we have provided, otherwise products will NOT be matched and sync will fail.
  4. This sync will happen only for existing products that you already added on your website and every time you receive new batch of products from us, you must add those products on your own.

  5. If your customers use coupon code on your website, those orders may not sync properly. So we recommend you to place those orders manually (this issue will soon be fixed, please check with us).
