In this article, we will cover how to connect your Magento 2 store to your Shippo account. 

 

Note:

This article covers instructions for connecting Shippo with Magento version 2. If you are on versions 1.5 - 1.9.3 of Magento please upgrade to Magento 2.0.0. Shippo supports up to Magento Version 2.2.X.

 


How to connect Shippo with your Magento 2 store?

To connect to your Magento 2 store:

  • Click on the Settings icon
  • Visit the Stores tab
  • Click on Magento 2
  • On the Connect store page, enter your Store URL and Integration Access Token
  • Click the Continue button

If you already have a store connected:

  • Click on the Settings icon
  • Visit the Stores tab
  • Click the Connect store button
  • From the sidebar, click on Magento 2
  • On the Connect store page, enter your Store URL and Integration Access Token
  • Click the Continue button

 

When successful, you will be redirected to your Orders Page, where you can import and sync your orders! Now Shippo App and Magento 2 stores are in sync.

Note:

Please make sure to select the correct Magento store connection of 'Magento 2' and not 'Magento' as that is the connector for version 1 stores.

 


How to access a Magento API Key

If you are not seeing a Shippo option under integrations in Magento, you will need access to your key. 

To get your Magento Access Key:

  • Log into your Magento 2 account, click on System, and select Integrations.
  • Click on Add New Integrations.
  • Next, enter Shippo as the Name of the integration.
  • Leave all the other fields (Email, Callback URL, etc...) blank, and enter your password.
  • Click on the API tab, select All from the options, and then click on Save.
  • You should now see Shippo among the Integrations. Click on Activate on the right side of the page to enable it.
  • Click Allow on the top right side of the page
  • Magento will now supply you with the keys and tokens required to connect your website on Shippo. You will want to use the one titled "Access Token."
