WOOCOMMERCE SETUP GUIDE

WooCommerce Integration

The IsleBooks WooCommerce Integration allows you to synchronize products, inventory, and orders between IsleBooks POS and your WooCommerce store.

Once connected, inventory changes in IsleBooks are automatically synchronized with your WooCommerce website, while online orders are imported into IsleBooks for processing.

Note: The WooCommerce Integration is included with the Developer API add-on.


Connecting a WooCommerce Store

  1. Go to Developer Portal → WooCommerce.

  2. Select the IsleBooks business location you want to synchronize.

  3. Enter your WooCommerce website URL.

  4. Click Add.

The selected business location becomes linked to your WooCommerce store.

Note: Each WooCommerce store is connected to a single IsleBooks location. Inventory changes at that location are synchronized with the connected store.


Installing the WooCommerce Plugin

  1. Open the WooCommerce tab in the Developer Portal.

  2. Click Download Plugin (.zip).

  3. Install and activate the plugin on your WooCommerce website.


Configuring the Plugin

After installing the plugin:

  1. Open the WooCommerce plugin settings in WordPress.

  2. Generate an IsleBooks API Key from the API Keys tab in the Developer Portal.

  3. Copy the API Key into the WooCommerce plugin.

  4. Copy the Webhook Secret displayed in the WooCommerce connection.

  5. Paste the Webhook Secret into the WooCommerce plugin settings.

  6. Save the configuration.

The plugin guides you through the remaining setup steps.

No manual webhook creation or API endpoint configuration is required.


Synchronization

Once connected, the integration automatically synchronizes supported data between IsleBooks and WooCommerce.

Depending on your configuration, this may include:

  • Products

  • Categories

  • Orders

Incoming WooCommerce orders are automatically imported into IsleBooks for processing.


Managing Connected Stores

The WooCommerce page displays every connected store, including:

  • IsleBooks Location

  • Webhook Secret

You can add multiple WooCommerce stores by connecting different IsleBooks business locations.


API Usage

The Developer Portal also provides:

These tools are available for developers building custom integrations with IsleBooks.


Best Practices
