Sales Channels

Connecting eBay

eBay's REST APIs power order retrieval and inventory-oriented updates in EcomFlux. The dashboard uses an OAuth-based install path so sellers grant access to the correct eBay user and marketplace context without sharing passwords.

Prerequisites

  • An eBay seller account in good standing.
  • A developer application in the eBay Developers Program with RuName / redirect configuration aligned to your EcomFlux deployment.
  • OAuth scopes sufficient for order feeds and any inventory writes you enable.

Connect from Channels

  1. Navigate to Dashboard → Channels.
  2. Select the eBay card and click Connect.
  3. If a SalesChannel row already exists for eBay, EcomFlux issues an install ticket and redirects you to eBay to sign in and approve the application.
  4. For net-new setups, follow the modal instructions to supply REST / OAuth credentials as prompted; tokens persist on the encrypted channel record for background sync.
  5. After approval, queued sync pulls recent orders into Orders.

Note: Sandbox vs production keys differ — use production credentials only on your live EcomFlux workspace.
