Easily manage orders from multiple marketplaces in one place. GoOrderSync allows you to update a marketplace order's status, shipping details, tracking information and cancellations. Marketplace order information may be either synced directly with your supported shopping cart platform (see below) or via the GoDataFeed API. 

How to setup Order Sync for your Shopify Store  

This article will help you setup your Shopify store to sync with your marketplace orders. 

Using your API credentials from your Product Import Source settings

If you already import products from Shopify for your feeds, then you can use those Primary Source settings to connect Order Sync to Shopify. 

  1. In your GoDataFeed account, go to Products > Primary Source
  2. Find and copy the following from Products > Primary Source to Orders > Settings > Store:
    • Base URL
    • API Key
    • API Password
  3. Enable any of the optional settings, if needed
  4. Save

Create a private app for GoDataFeed

If you are NOT already importing products from Shopify for your feeds, then follow these steps to generate private app keys for Order Sync.

  4. Creating the private app

      You may also add which feeds or orders you are using GoDataFeed for in the name to be clear, like this "GoDataFeed - Order Sync"
    • Update Permissions to enable the 'Orders, transactions and fulfillments' permission to 'Read and write'
    • Skip 'Storefront API' section, we do not need access to your storefront.
    • Click Save to get the API credentials which you will enter into your GoDataFeed account.

  5. Your Admin API credentials, API Key and Password, are now ready to use in your GoDataFeed store. 
    Treat the API key and password like you would any other password since whoever has access to these credentials has API access to the store.6_-_API_Key_and_Password.png
