Getting Started with Suppli¶
Suppli is a dropshipping automation platform. Connect your supplier email and your sales channels — Suppli handles inventory sync, pricing, ads, fulfillment, and customer messaging automatically.
What is Suppli?¶
Suppli watches your supplier's email inbox. When a new CSV feed arrives, it updates your inventory across Shopify, eBay, Walmart, Amazon, and Etsy — in under 2 minutes. No manual uploads. No scheduled jobs to babysit.
How it works¶
- Connect your supplier's IMAP mailbox
- Connect your sales channels (Shopify, eBay, Walmart, Amazon, Etsy)
- Supplier sends CSV → Suppli detects it → all channels update in 60 seconds
That's it. After setup, Suppli runs 24/7 with zero manual work.
Setting up your account¶
Step 1 — Connect a supplier¶
Go to Suppliers in the sidebar. Add your supplier's email address and IMAP credentials. Suppli will start polling that inbox every 60 seconds.
Step 2 — Connect your channels¶
Go to Channels. Connect Shopify, eBay, Walmart, Amazon, or Etsy. Each channel has a one-click OAuth flow — no API keys to hunt down.
Step 3 — Map your SKUs¶
Go to Catalog. Your supplier's SKUs appear here after the first feed. Map each supplier SKU to your internal SKU — this tells Suppli which product is which across platforms.
Step 4 — Watch it run¶
Go to Sync Logs. Every feed run is logged with before/after quantities per channel. The Compare tab shows exactly what changed.
