ShopWired is an e-commerce website platform and order management tool available in the UK only. They are one of the best-rated ecommerce platforms for selling successfully online.
The ShopWired ShipStation app has two functions:
-
When you receive an order on ShopWired, the app will send the order details (and products contained in the order) to ShipStation.
-
When you create a shipping label in ShipStation, the order will automatically be marked as dispatched in ShopWired, and optionally, an order status change email can be sent to your customer.
To connect your ShopWired store to ShipStation, you'll need to get your ShipStation API key, and then you'll add it to ShopWired.
To get your API key and secret in ShipStation:
-
Select your API Version from the dropdown and click Generate API Key.
We will email a verification link to your user email address.
IMPORTANT: Generated API Keys
API keys and API secrets will only show in ShipStation’s UI when they are generated and only to the user who generated them. They will be hidden from view in the ShipStation UI after you navigate away from the page.
We strongly recommend that you copy the API keys and API secrets and keep a record of these immediately upon their generation.

Only the Account Owner can generate API keys. They will need to verify their email to access the API Key Generator.
