Hello Jon,

We are sorry to hear about your experience. Per your query, we have shared the complete day to day series of events for the past 21 days in the section below.

ChannelSale has a complete API integration with Shopify for catalog, inventory and orders. The queries highlighted by you are that of another 3rd party supplier API integration requirement that is a custom setup task.

Listed below your stated are our in-line replies marked as ChannelSale Reply):

Client stated) Provided CS team data logins and access for API, inventory spreadsheets. They stated maybe we can do API provide info and access and we will tell you. That was 2/15 when it started. 3/8 still hadn't been done. Alroy determined they cant do the API or the spreadsheet and rejected our product feed. But then 2 of their employees called disagreeing with Alroy and Najaf. And candidly the never answered all the questions.

ChannelSale Reply) We informed you via a telephonic meeting and via email that the steps for proceeding with 3rd party supplier API connection (outside of Shopify) requires our developers to review the number of fields and attributes that need to be imported and then matchup with the marketplace acceptable value first. This has to be carried out separately for each marketplace.

Client stated) They kept circling back to we need to analyze the data but they had 21 days to analyze it and never got anywhere and contradicted each other. They also had advertised they could manage the listings but in this process they kept going back to we would have to do the spreadsheet uploads (which refresh 12 times a day) and deferred managing the listings to us recommending that we hire more staff... so they really weren't serious about taking some of the listing management tasks.

ChannelSale Reply) We reviewed the data feed provided by you and it did not contain the short description and we informed you about the same. To minimise the acceptable values or the errors caused while posting the feeds to the marketplaces.

Client stated) But in the end they couldn't account for what hadn't been done for 21 days and we have to move on with software providers who are ready for the market. Give them another year and they may be ready or possibly entertaining automation by then.

ChannelSale Reply) Day to day series of events shared in section below. Kindly note that the automation you are asking for is from a 3rd part software and not Shopify. Highlighting once again that steps for proceeding with an API connection requires our developers to review the number of fields and attributes that need to be imported and then matchup with the marketplace acceptable value first. This has to be carried out separately for each marketplace.
