Connect Your WooCommerce Store
Connecting your store is a one-time setup. You'll create a set of API keys on your WooCommerce site, paste them into CloudFFL OS, and run a quick connection test.
Your WooCommerce site must be served over HTTPS (a secure https:// web address). CloudFFL OS will not connect to an insecure store.
Step 1: Create API keys on your WooCommerce site
- Log in to your WooCommerce site's WordPress admin.
- Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Advanced → REST API.
- Click Add key. Give it a description like "CloudFFL OS" and set Permissions to Read/Write.
- Click Generate API key. WooCommerce shows you a Consumer key and Consumer secret. Copy both now — the secret is only shown once.
Step 2: Add the store in CloudFFL OS
- In CloudFFL OS, go to WooCommerce → Stores → New.
- Give the store a name and enter your Store URL (for example
https://yourstore.com). - Paste in the Consumer key and Consumer secret from Step 1.
- Enter a Webhook secret — any strong phrase you choose. You'll use this same phrase when you set up automatic order import.
- Choose your default warehouse and price list. These tell CloudFFL OS where stock comes from and how web orders are priced.
- Save.
Step 3: Test the connection
Click Test Connection. If your URL and keys are correct, the status changes to Connected and you'll see a success message. If it fails, double-check the store URL (it must start with https://) and that the keys were copied exactly.
Step 4: Choose what to sync
Each store has simple on/off switches so you stay in control:
- Push Products — list your CloudFFL OS products to the store.
- Push Stock — keep your website quantities in line with CloudFFL OS.
- Import Orders — pull web orders into CloudFFL OS.
- Import Products — bring an existing WooCommerce catalog into CloudFFL OS (used during onboarding).
Only managers can see the API keys and webhook secret — they're hidden from regular users and never shown in logs.
