This article outlines the different settings in the Integrations Manager and how you can configure them.
Generic settings
-
Full Import (on Imports page): By deselecting the Process only updated times checkbox and clicking Start Import, you will effectively refresh the API feed and ensure that any changes to Integrations Manager settings are applied to the API.
If you change any Integration Manager settings after the API has been established, run a full import to ensure the settings are applied. -
Exclude Brands: In this field, you can enter the brands you prefer to exclude from the import. For detailed steps on this, refer to this article.
Note: WooCommerce does not offer this feature. - Ignore barcodes: Select this checkbox to exclude the information from your third-party system to be sent to your marketplace.
- Automatically publish products: Select this checkbox if you want your products to automatically publish your products. If you want your products to be reviewed and manually published, then leave this checkbox unchecked.
- Use information from the product database to create variants and products if a barcode match is found: If this checkbox is selected, the system checks if an existing barcode in the CPD matches the unique barcode of a newly created variant. If a barcode match is found, then the newly created variant is linked to the CPD golden variant with a matching barcode.
- Allow matching items against the product database via the SKU field: If this checkbox is selected, the system checks if the SKU of an existing variant in the CPD matches the SKU of a newly created variant. If a match is found, then the newly created variant is linked to the CPD golden product’s variant with a matching SKU.
- Enable Scheduled Imports: If you select this option, MConnect imports the advert information from your third-party system every six hours, and the information refreshes on the marketplace. If you do not prefer the marketplace to sync with your chosen third-party platform every six hours, leave this box unchecked.
-
Mark adverts and variants as inactive: Select this option if you want to have adverts or variants on the marketplace marked as inactive when they are missing or marked as inactive on your chosen third-party store. If you like to have these products or variants remain active on the marketplace even when they are missing or inactive on your chosen third-party store, then leave this box unchecked. If this option is selected, the inventory updates whether the Enable Imports is disabled or abled.
The setting enables the product status update worker, which is designed to keep our product listings in sync with the e-commerce platforms we integrate with. It is a background task that runs once every 24 hours and first fetches active adverts and variants from the third-party e-commerce platforms we have integrated with. Any adverts and variants not in that list will then be taken offline by setting their count on hand to zero. This keeps our product listings in sync with the e-commerce platforms and ensures that customers are not able to purchase unavailable products.
If any errors occur during the last run of the background task, they are displayed in the MConnect dashboard. This allows our team to quickly identify and address any issues. Most of the errors are transient and should be resolved in the next run of the task. - Sync images: You can choose how to sync images for products and variants from a third-party platform into your marketplace through the Sync images setting.
