Once you have configured your VTEX store and your Amazon account, you must configure the integration between them. You must configure the integration with Amazon in the Admin. To do this, please follow the instructions below:
- Access the VTEX Admin.
- In the MARKETPLACE module, click on Integrations.
- Click on Settings.
- In the Amazon card, click on
Integrate
. - Fill in the fields according to the descriptions below, then click on the
Save configuration
button. Fields marked with an asterisk are mandatory.
- Affiliate Id*: identification code for creating an affiliate bthat is not yet registered in your system. The code must consist of three consonants, repeated or not. Vowels are not accepted. Suggestion: MZN. Once the connector is created, the affiliate is automatically created.
- Affiliate Email*: fill in an email address for the affiliate you are creating.
- Sales Channel*: the trade policy that will define the catalog assortment and the prices of the items that will be sent to Amazon.
- Amazon Seller Id*: fill in the seller ID informed by Amazon at the step in which you Authorize VTEX in your Amazon dashboard.
- Amazon Auth Token*: fill in the MWS authorization token provided by Amazon at the step in which you Authorize VTEX in your Amazon dashboard.
- Mininum Stock*: determines the minimum safety stock value. If the quantity of items of a product in stock is below the quantity entered, your ad will be paused in order to prevent out-of-stock sales while Amazon is being updated by VTEX. The minimum stock value applies to all products, so please check if there are any products that would not be advertised due to their initial stock.
- Name for the type of freight: shipping type name on the Amazon platform. The shipping type name can be found in
Shipping Settings
in the Shipping Templates section, under the Amazon Default Template. - Default ZIP Code: If you want to activate this feature, fill in this field with a ZIP code of your choice. It will be used to check stock availability and SLAs when reserving stock for pending orders. This feature allows Amazon orders with
Pending
status to reserve their stock on VTEX, in order to avoid out-of-stock sales for orders approved on Amazon. If the order is canceled on Amazon, the existing stock reservation on VTEX for this order will be canceled. - Don't send the variations of skus: It is currently not possible to send consolidated SKUs to Amazon. This flag must only be used for stores in the Office category. If your store is in the Office category, we recommend selecting the ON option.
- Not send price to Amazon: Amazon allows you to use their own system to parameterize product prices. To use this service, toggle the ON option so that the integration does not submit VTEX prices. If prices are sent through the integration, they will overwrite the ones in Amazon's system.
- Send KIT:* if you click No, SKUs registered as kits will not be sent to Amazon. By clicking Yes, all items in your trade policy will be sent to the marketplace, including SKUs created as kits. Changes to the connector configuration can be made at any time. This does not affect SKUs that have already been sent. For example, if you changed the setting from Yes to No, SKUs previously sent to Amazon would not be deleted or modified.
If the No option is enabled, attempts to send SKUs registered as kits to Amazon will result in the following warning: "The connector is configured not to send SKUs of the Kit type". This message can be viewed in the Admin, in Marketplace > Integrations > Products, when you click on the SKU.
- Notify by email if an error occurs in an order: enter the email address of the responsible technician. If any error occurs when integrating an order, a message will be sent to this email address.
If the configuration is successful, the integrated SKU will be displayed in VTEX Admin with the letter "p" at the end of its code. Example: SKU 13737p. The letter "p" identifies the sending of a product. As the SKU will only integrated if your product is also integrated. This is expected behavior in the Amazon integration process.
