Before the first launch
Make sure your Zalando back-office is ready for the launch:
- Check with your Zalando account manager that your Zalando back-office is correctly set up (shipping delivery delay, shipping costs, etc.)
- Tell your Zalando account manager that you are ready to launch the integration of your products.
Inform them that you will be using the"Direct Integration" API feed (= multi-country). - Monitor the initial integration of your products.
Click on "Launch" to start sending your data to Zalando.
For Zalando to validate your onboarding, you will be required to send a test order to Zalando (unless you are using ZFS).
This test order is created in Lengow by our technical team. You must then physically ship the order (make sure you enclose the required documents in the package) and provide the tracking information.
Update frequency
Two distinct feeds are provided to Zalando through API:
- Product Feed: enables the integration and creation of products. Zalando retrieves this feed once a day.
- Price & Stock Feed: enables the update of prices and stock. It is sent to the channel every hour.
