Shoprenter

This guide is intended for Shoprenter merchants who are connecting their store to Violet. During this process, the merchant will obtain the API credentials in their Shoprenter dashboard and then provide the generated credentials to Violet through the Violet Connect onboarding tool. Total time for completion is around 5 minutes.

Step 1: Obtaining API Credentials

1. Within your Shoprenter site admin dashboard navigate to the Settings page using the left sidebar navigation.

2. From the Settings page, click API User in the API settings block.

3. If no credentials exist yet you will need to create new ones and save them.

4. Ensure that the API Status is set to Authorized.

Step 2: Provide App Credentials to Violet

Once you have your API credentials it’s time to return to the Violet Connect onboarding tool and enter them in their relevant fields:

1. Enter your API url in the ”Store URL” field.

2. Provide your Username in the API Username field.

3. Provide your Password in the API Password field.

Once entered, click the Connect button to validate the credentials and complete the connection between your store and Violet. If the credentials are invalid you should check for any spaces or other copy/paste errors and try again.

Upon success you will be redirected back to the channel who first sent you to Violet.
