OPT OnDemand Integration

With Order Desk, you can pull in your print on demand orders from your shopping cart(s), sync your print details into the orders, and then submit them to the OPT OnDemand integration. As your orders are fulfilled, OPT OnDemand will send the shipment details back into Order Desk. If your store is set up for it, those details will be sent back to your customer or your shopping cart.

Setup

To get started, click on Manage Integrations in the left sidebar. Under the Print on Demand tab, find and enable the OPT OnDemand integration.

Alternatively, search for OPT onDemand from the available integrations search.

Once enabled, you'll need to copy the webhook URL and contact OPT OnDemand directly so they can assist you with adding the URL to your account. Afterward, you'll then need to select Production (live) or Staging (test) and enter the username and password that OPT OnDemand has provided for you and click to connect to the integration.

If you need to switch between a test connection and a live connection, you will need to disconnect the integration and set it up again with the right credentials for the new environment.

To disconnect, click the Disconnect button (not the Disable Integration button) at the bottom of the integration settings.

Please note that Order Desk is not able to help find or reset your credentials, as they can only be provided by OPT OnDemand.
