How to Set Up Walmart Integration
Walmart steps
- Signup for a Walmart Seller Account.
- You can Generate your credentials (Consumer ID and Private Key) in the Developer Portal. You can access the Developer Portal in Seller Center by selecting the Settings icon and selecting API Key Management under API.
Next, select API Key Management to access the developer site. This will automatically log you into the Developer Portal using your Seller Center credentials. You can also access various documentation by selecting the links under the Quick Links heading.
Alternatively, visit the Developer Portal directly and log into the system.
Generate Credentials in Developer Portal
- In the Developer Portal, click My Account in the top right corner, and select Marketplace (US & Mexico) as the Login Type.
Your login details are the same as your Seller Center credentials.
- Next, you will be directed to a page where you can generate your API credentials (Client ID & Client Secret).
- Please make use of the keys retrieved in the previous step to get a short-lived token using the Token API. This token has a 15-minute lifespan and must be regenerated if that time passes.
- Use the headers listed in the API Documentation to authenticate your API call. These headers are mandatory for all API calls to authenticate and authorize the partner.
Shipedge steps
- To integrate Shopify, simply go to Shipedge OMS > My Account > Preferences > Channel Automation and look for Walmart.
