Connecting Ship Hero to Wayfair for dropships on behalf of Wayfair.com and was recommended to use CartRover to connect.
CartRover is saying the EDI/Flat File upload is the only method and they update once/hour. This won’t be enough, but we’ll inquire with Wayfair to increase cadence.
On Ship Hero side, what is the API Call Limit to update inventory?
We have 1300 products, ranging from 1-3 in stock, up to 500-1000. This inventory is shared among many retail channels and needs to be updated as close to real time as possible.
What is the best method to achieve near real-time inventory updates across channels?
Can you confirm for me the minimum time to update?
EDI / FTP connections are notorious for not synchronizing inventory at a cadence fast enough to prevent oversells. We’re hoping to get as near real time as possible. Can you confirm the quickest we’ll be able to do this?
Hi @ChadC!
How many lines will you be updating regularly?
I can provide a better estimate for that number, it will depend on the size of the file you use for updating, but I can provide a better estimate based on the updates you will be making.
