Integrate with The Wishlist (app)

What is The Wishlist?

The Wishlist is a tool that enhances the customer experience by enabling users to create and manage wishlists on your e-commerce store. It provides an easy way for retailers to capture shopper details and preferences, both in-store and online, and automatically generates personalised marketing campaigns that build engagement and drive sales.

Pre-requisites

• A Shopify store with DotApparel Core installed (includes Apparel21 API credentials)

• A Firebase project upgraded to the Blaze plan

• Shopify store access with permission to install a private app on the Shopify store

Steps for the setup

Steps	Responsibility
Install DotApparel Core: Ensure your Shopify store has DotApparel Core installed.	DotApparel
Install The Wishlist App: Follow the installation instructions provided by The Wishlist.	The Wishlist
Setup the CSVs: Setup the automated customers.csv and orders.csv exports in Apparel21.	Apparel21 Consultant
Configure Settings: Customise DotApparel Core settings to fit your store's needs. Once configured, CSV files are uploaded to the SFTP. DotApparel API processes these files and stores the data in the database (Firebase project within DotApparel Core). The Wishlist accesses this data via the DotApparel APIs.	DotApparel
Test End-to-End: Conduct thorough testing (i.e., verify that saved wishlist items are appearing across devices)	Merchant & The Wishlist

What is needed to setup The Wishlist?

• DotApparel API:

  • The Wishlist has access to all DotApparel API endpoints mentioned here.

  • The Wishlist primarily uses POST and GET endpoints for customer and order data.

• CSV Files:

  • Both the customers.csv and orders.csv are required.

    Note: The CSV templates might be different from DotApparel Customers. Particularly, orders.csv must include online transactions.

  • An Apparel21 Consultant needs access to your Apparel21 instance to configure file exports.

  • The CSV files are used for /customers/search and /orders/transactions/search endpoints as a workaround to get both online and in-store data. Without this, the Apparel21 API only returns online data.

Sync Frequency for CSV files

Data sync frequency can vary from daily to every 15 minutes for more real-time updates. This needs to be predetermined and set up by an Apparel21 specialist.

Costs

• Subscription Fees: The use of DotApparel API incurs a fixed monthly charge of A$300, automatically billed to the merchant via Stripe.

• Additional Charges: Our Apparel21 Consultant my charge additional for any changes relating to the Apparel21 CSV exports.
