Marketplace integration

ChannelEngine Integration

Connect ChannelEngine with your account name and a Merchant API key. LynkPIM upserts products and variants by SKU; ChannelEngine passes them on to its marketplaces.

Direction and data

  • LynkPIM to ChannelEngine; products are not read back

Connect in 2 steps

No developer needed. You need access to your ChannelEngine account.

  1. 1

    In ChannelEngine, go to Settings > Merchant API keys and create a key

  2. 2

    In LynkPIM, choose ChannelEngine and enter the account name (the part before .channelengine.net) and the key

How it behaves

Mapping

  • Variants carry their parent's product number
  • Choose the VAT rate type once when connecting

When it runs

  • Push all approved products or a selection; products are sent in batches
  • Each run reports how many products ChannelEngine accepted and rejected, with the reasons

When something fails

  • Rejected products are listed with ChannelEngine's reason
  • Only your own channelengine.net address is called

Questions about this integration

Why connect ChannelEngine instead of each marketplace?

If ChannelEngine already manages your marketplaces and orders, LynkPIM only needs to keep its product data right.

Is Lengow supported too?

Yes, through a Lengow catalog feed on the catalog feeds page.
