Custom Store Connection for ShipStation Integration

Establish a custom store connection with ShipStation using unique listener URLs for seamless integration with NetSuite.

·1 min read·View Oracle Docs

Establishing a custom store connection with ShipStation is essential for effective eCommerce operations within NetSuite. Each ShipStation connector operates with a unique listener URL, facilitating communication between NetSuite and ShipStation.

How Does the ShipStation Connector Work?

The connection setting for a custom store in ShipStation utilizes a single listener URL specific to each NetSuite Connector's ShipStation connector. If you have multiple ShipStation connector accounts, such as 'default', 'account2', and 'account3', each will generate a distinct listener URL:

  • default: https://ss.farapp.com/secure_ShipStationListener
  • account2: https://ss.farapp.com/secure_ShipStationListener/Account2
  • account3: https://ss.farapp.com/secure_ShipStationListener/Account3

In your ShipStation setup, you can choose between:

  • Creating three separate custom stores, with each store linked to one of the URLs listed above.
  • Utilizing three different ShipStation logins or accounts, where each account manages an individual custom store that corresponds to a specific URL.

Best Practices for Configuration

  • Ensure that each URL is correctly configured in ShipStation to prevent any disruption in service.
  • Document each connector account and its associated URL for easier management and troubleshooting.
