This article will help you understand how to connect and use WooCommerce

on Oviond.

WooCommerce Permissions

Your permissions on WordPress will determine the access you have to connect and retrieve data from WooCommerce. Therefore, you will first need login credentials to the WordPress account in order to get the Shop URL, Consumer key, and Secret key for WooCommerce to connect it as an integration on Oviond. You need a role as an Admin or Super Admin to get this data.

When creating the API key, make sure the Permissions are set to Read/Write. Here are a few steps on how to do this when using the WooCommerce plugin on WordPress:

  1. Login to your WordPress account.

  2. Select the tab named WooCommerce in the navigation bar on the left.

  3. Click Settings.

  4. Click Advanced.

  5. Click REST API.

  6. Click Add key.

  7. Fill in the Description field, choose a user and select Read/Write Permissions.

  8. Click Generate API key.

Note: Make sure to copy your new keys now as the secret key will be hidden once you leave this page.
