Connecting a Jet store to ShipStation is a multi-step process. The steps will differ depending on whether you're new to selling on Jet or if you have established a seller account.
In either case, we highly recommend that you review the entire onboarding process before you begin, as there are multiple steps you must take in both the Jet and ShipStation platforms. You may wish to use multiple tabs or browser windows to accomplish the connection process.

Log in to the Jet Partner Portal here.
Go to the Dashboard tab of the Jet Partner Portal.
-
Copy the API User and Secret listed on this page.

Click Save Changes when you're done.
That's it! Jet is now fully connected to ShipStation and you're ready to start selling your products on Jet. The only thing left to do is upload your product listings and stock levels to ShipStation so Jet can start listing your products.
Now that you've connected Jet to ShipStation, the only thing left to do is to upload your product and stock level information into ShipStation.
This is a two-step process:
-
Create or update the products in ShipStation.
There are three ways to do that:
If you do not have your products listed on Jet, you can import products with a CSV file.
If your products are already listed on Jet, you can import products through the Jet store settings.
If you only need to create or update a few products, you can create or update the products manually.
Set the stock levels for your products.
After you upload your products to Jet, the Jet tab of the Product Details will populate with one of three statuses:
SKU Upload Failed: ShipStation attempted to create the product in Jet, but the action failed because one or more of the required fields were not accepted.
Under Jet Review: ShipStation was able to create the product in Jet successfully, and Jet is reviewing it before listing it on their site.
Available for Purchase: ShipStation was able to create the product in Jet successfully, and Jet has made the item available for purchase on their site.
Proposition 65 & Jet.com
California’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, or Proposition 65, requires that merchants provide California consumers with specific warnings that indicate potential harm from products that contain chemicals on the Proposition 65 list.
Jet.com requires that you identify any product you upload to Jet that is subject to Prop 65 rules and regulations. Failure to identify such products may result in Jet.com removing those items from the site.
If you do not already have products listed on Jet, the fastest way to add your product information to ShipStation is to perform a product CSV import.
Learn how to import products via CSV from our Add Products In Bulk via CSV Import article.
While the process is similar after you have Jet connected as a store, you can include a few additional, Jet-specific fields when you import your product CSV.
These fields include:
Description: The text description of the product being sold.
JetBrand: The brand of the product being sold.
JetPrice: The price for the SKU on Jet.
-
JetMultiPackQuantity: The number of units that SKU represents.
For example, if you sell a product with one SKU to represent a single quantity of that product, and another SKU to represent three of the same product, the Multi-Pack Quantity would be 1 for the single quantity SKU and 3 for the multi-quantity SKU.
-
JetCategory: The Jet Node ID for the category of the product being sold.
Note
Jet uses Node ID values to identify categories for products. See this file for a list of Jet Node IDs. It's recommended that you be specific (using the L2 Node IDs whenever possible) in order to ensure the best browsing experience for your customers.
-
JetInventoryOverride: ShipStation will send this value as the inventory stock count to Jet instead of the available stock for the product in ShipStation's Internal Inventory Solution.
This value does not decrease when products are shipped. For example, if you want to stop listing a product on Jet but still want to track the stock in ShipStation for your other selling channels, you can set the JetInventoryOverride value to 0.
Prop65: True or False. Indicates this product is subject to Prop 65 rules and regulations. If left blank, Jet.com will assume False.
-
Prop65Reasons: Required if Prop65 is set to True. List of potentially harmful chemicals the product contains.
Example: "This product contains Lead"
When you import products via CSV file, ShipStation requires only the field for either SKU or Name. However, Jet requires the following fields to be included for the products you create in Jet.
SKU
Name
UPC
ThumbnailUrl
JetPrice
JetBrand
JetMultiPackQuantity
The following fields are also shared with Jet, but they are not required.
Description
WeightOz
Dimensions (Length, Width, Height)
JetCategory
Prop65
Prop65Reasons (Required if Prop65 is set to True)
If you already list products on Jet, follow the steps below to import your product catalog into ShipStation.
Click the Edit link next to your Jet store.
Go to the Jet tab of the store's settings.
-
Click the red Import Jet Product Catalog button.
When you import Jet products, ShipStation will create product records for SKUs that do not already exist and update product data for matching SKUs that already exist in ShipStation. The following fields will be saved and updated:
SKU

Description
Image URL
UPC
Weight
Dimensions
Jet Price
Jet Multi-Pack Quantity
Jet Brand
Jet Category
Product requires a warning for California Proposition 65 compliance
Prop 65 Reasons
If you're only going to be listing a few products on Jet, or if you just need to add a small number of new products to Jet, you may find it more efficient to create or update your products manually.
From the Products tab in ShipStation, click the New Product button to create a new product, or click the hyperlinked SKU for a product to edit its details.
If you've already connected Jet to ShipStation, the product details in ShipStation will include a Jet tab that includes the following Jet-specific fields:
Price: The price for the SKU on Jet.
Brand: The brand of the product being sold.
-
Multi-Pack Quantity: The number of units that SKU represents.
For example, if you sell a product with one SKU to represent a single quantity of that product, and another SKU to represent three of the same product, the Multi-Pack Quantity would be 1 for the single quantity SKU and 3 for the multi-quantity SKU.
-
Jet Category: The Jet Node ID for the category of the product being sold.
Note
Jet uses Node ID values to identify categories for products. See this file for a list of Jet Node IDs. It's recommended that you be specific (using the L2 Node IDs whenever possible) in order to ensure the best browsing experience for your customers.
-
Inventory Override: ShipStation will send this value as the inventory stock count to Jet, instead of the available stock for the product in ShipStation's Internal Inventory Solution.
This value does not decrease when products are shipped. For example, if you want to stop listing a product on Jet but still want to track the stock in ShipStation for your other selling channels, you can set the Inventory Override value to 0.
Product requires a warning for California Proposition 65 compliance: When selected, it will indicate to Jet.com that this product is subject to Prop 65 rules and regulations.
-
Prop 65 Reasons: Required if Prop 65 is selected. List of potentially harmful chemicals the product contains.
Example: "This product contains Lead"
If you have more than one Jet store connected to your ShipStation account, you'll also see a Store drop-down which will allow you to define the product data for each Jet store.
When you create products manually, ShipStation only requires a SKU. However, Jet will require the following additional fields to list a product on their site:
SKU
Name
UPC
Image URL
Price
Brand
Multi-Pack Quantity
The following fields are also shared with Jet, but they are not required to submit the product.
Description
Weight
Dimensions (Length, Width, Height)
Jet Category
Product requires a warning for California Proposition 65 compliance
Prop 65 Reasons (Required if a product requires a Prop 65 warning)
Before you can accept orders from Jet, you must upload stock levels for the products in ShipStation.
Review our articles on setting stock levels for more details:
Note
If your product uses the Inventory Override product attribute, ShipStation will send that value instead of the stock count listed for the product.
When you set the stock level, it's important to use the same Inventory Warehouses that are linked to your Jet Fulfillment Nodes.
You will only receive Jet orders if you have stock available. If you have insufficient stock to fulfill it, Jet will reject the order.
ShipStation automatically communicates the stock level information with Jet once per day. To send that information over to Jet more quickly, go to Settings > Selling Channels > Store Setup and edit your Jet store. On the Jet tab of the store's settings, click Trigger Manual Sync.
