Step 1: Connect to the Sendcloud app

- On the right-hand side, fill your name into the correct field and click the button Activate this addon:
- Select Configuration from the top banner
- Select Configure Add-ons
- Select Sendcloud
- Click on Edit to enter your API keys from Sendcloud
- To see where to obtain your API keys, proceed to Step 2
Step 2: Obtain your API keys
- Login to your Sendcloud account
- Navigate to Settings > Integrations
- Find the integration Sendcloud API and click on Connect
- Enter a name for the connection
- Click Save
- Your API Public and Secret keys will be automatically generated. These are the keys you need to copy and paste into Shoptrader as per Step 1.
Make sure to copy your keys and store them in a safe place. Once you close this page, your keys will no longer be visible. If you need your keys at a later stage and don’t have them stored anywhere, you’ll be required to generate new keys via the Regenerate keys button. This means that the connection between Sendcloud and your integration needs to be remade with the use of these new keys.

- Select the orders on the left-side of the menu and choose the action you want to apply.
