Profiles Overview [eBay]

Before sending and making connections between products on Shopify and eBay, Salestio needs to know the rules that will be used to export Shopify Products to eBay listings. 

Such rules are called 'Profiles' in Salestio. Profiles are split into four sections for eBay integration.

  • Global profiles — include general settings related to QTY, Price. These global settings are shared among various integration channels like Amazon, for example.
  • Ebay profiles — include eBay channel-specific settings, for example, 'Listing Type', 'Listing Duration'. These settings are not shared across all channels and are only specific to eBay.
  • Creation profiles — include the category details to extend existing eBay listings, or to create completely new listings on eBay.
  • Store mapping profiles — similar to Creation profiles. Necessary for custom categories in an eBay Store.
  • Description templates — include the fields and information added to the Description on the eBay listing page.
  • Price Templates — include custom rules to convert Shopify prices to eBay prices.
