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 — or fetches from your supplier's catalog API with the Supplier API app. When new stock 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, WooCommerce)
- 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.
Where you land¶
After you log in, Suppli opens on Home: a calm overview with four real numbers across your apps, a greeting, the Suppli assistant in the centre, and cards for what is new and what needs you today. The Dashboard, one click down in the sidebar, holds the inventory sync health (suppliers, feeds, supplier APIs, channels and recent runs).
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, Etsy or WooCommerce. Each channel has a one-click approval flow — no API keys to hunt down (WooCommerce also accepts a pasted key pair, see the WooCommerce tutorial).
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. The Dashboard keeps the sync health in one place, and Home shows the wider picture across your apps.
