ChannelAdvisor: Add a Store (OAuth)
ShipWorks connects directly to your ChannelAdvisor account. With one click, or on an automated schedule, your orders are downloaded from ChannelAdvisor. As soon as you process a shipment, ShipWorks communicates the updated order status, shipping method and tracking information back to ChannelAdvisor.
This article will guide you through the process of connecting ShipWorks to your ChannelAdvisor account using the OAuth connection in ShipWorks version 5.16 or later. If you are running a version of ShipWorks prior to version 5.16, please upgrade ShipWorks to the latest version or see this article to connect your ChannelAdvisor account.
Before connecting your ChannelAdvisor account to ShipWorks, please be sure that:
-
We recommend that you run the latest version of the ShipWorks software. This allows you to access the latest tools and features and ensures the steps in this article will work for you. For assistance with checking your version of ShipWorks or with upgrading to the latest version, please see this help article.
-
You are logged into ShipWorks as a user with administrator rights.
-
You have your ChannelAdvisor login username and password available.
1. Click on the Manage tab, then on the Stores button. Then, click Add Store.
2. Select the platform you are adding to ShipWorks from the What platform do you sell on? drop-down menu. Then, click Next.
3. Click on the Get Access Code button. This will open a ChannelAdvisor login page.
4. On the ChannelAdvisor login screen, enter your ChannelAdvisor username and password. Then, click Log In.

This setting will affect any orders managed or routed outside of ChannelAdvisor and/or are marked as Externally Managed in ChannelAdvisor.
