Authorizing Your SHOPLINE 2.0 Store – SHOPLINE Help Center

Our solution enhances your ability to manage multiple SHOPLINE 2.0 stores by seamlessly integrating them into a unified platform. By authorizing your other SHOPLINE 2.0 stores for Multichannel Connect, you can effortlessly synchronize and manage inventory, products, and orders across all your stores. This enables you to import your secondary store’s orders and automatically update relevant data across your entire network of stores — all in one place. With this centralized approach, you gain full visibility of your sales and customer data, streamline operations, and leverage a shared inventory pool, maximizing business efficiency and improving decision-making.

Notes / Rules:

There is no limit to the number of other SHOPLINE 2.0 stores that you can authorize to a main SHOPLINE 2.0 store via Multichannel Connect, as a secondary store.
Once SHOPLINE Store A is authorized and bound to Main Store B as a channel store (i.e., it becomes a secondary store), Store A can no longer be authorized as a main store, nor will it be considered a channel store for other SHOPLINE stores. At the same time, Main Store B will no longer be able to act as a channel store to authorize and bind to other main stores.
When you delete a secondary store, the data in your main SHOPLINE store's admin panel will remain unaffected. However, the following data will be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered. Therefore, please proceed with caution.
- Orders retrieved from the secondary store in the Orders module of the Multichannel Connect app
- All products in the Products module of the Multichannel Connect app
- Any associations in the Inventory module of the Multichannel Connect app
