INSTRUCTIONS FOR
Integrating your WooCommerce store with Price2Spy
Please follow the simple steps shown below .
Instructions
STEPS IN PRICE2SPY – PART 1
- In your Price2Spy account, in the left-side menu, go to 'Integrations' > 'Link My Store'.
- On the next screen, select on 'WOOCOMMERCE' and then click "NEXT'.
- Fill out store details.
- Store URL - this is the URL of your online store.
NOTE: It is important that there’s no ‘index.php’ at the end of your URL. For example, https://www.example.com is okay, while https://www.example.com/index.php would be wrong.
If the store URL is not entered correctly, a warning popup will appear, you should check it and enter the correct one.
- Click on 'NEXT' to go to Step 2 of the integration process.
INTERIM STEP IN WOOCOMMERCE
- In Step 2 there are two scenarios, depending on whether you are already logged in to your own store in the same browser:
- A) If you are not already logged in to your store in the same browser, a page with login format will appear – after credentials are inserted, the page from B) will appear
- B) If you were already logged in to your store, a page that requires you to allow Price2Spy integration will appear.
- Once logged in, you will need to approve the connection request of Price2Spy with your store.
- When you approve the connection, you will be able to proceed to Step 3 in Price2Spy.
STEPS IN PRICE2SPY – PART 2
- In Step 3 of the integration process, you need to choose which categories from which the products should be copied.
- If you don't choose any, the system will default to choosing all the categories.
- Optionally, you can click on 'CHECK' to see how many products in total are in the categories you selected.
- Once you have selected the desired categories, click on 'NEXT' and you will be directed to Step 4 of the integration process.
STEPS IN PRICE2SPY – PART 3
- In Step 4 of the integration process you define:
- The frequency of store executions (default value is once per day);
- Whether you want to be notified via email whenever a store execution is performed.
- The frequency of price checks of products created via the Link My Store operation.
- Once you have completed the steps above, click on 'FINISH'.
- Clicking on 'FINISH' will trigger the first store execution and once your products have been linked from WooCommerce, you will see them in your Price2Spy account.
Troubleshooting
Due to changes in WooCommerce, ‘Enable the Legacy REST API’ option is no longer supported. You should be able to proceed with the integration without this option. However, if you do encounter any issues, you can do the following:
- Add the WooCommerce Legacy REST API plugin.
- In WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Legacy API - check the option 'Enable the Legacy REST API'.
