Kornit Integration
IN THIS GUIDE
Overview
Order Desk can import orders from your shopping cart(s), sync in your print details and then automatically send them on to Kornit for fulfillment. When orders are shipped, the tracking details will be sent back to Order Desk automatically.
This guide explains how to set up and use the Kornit integration.
Setup
To connect to Kornit, click on the Manage Integrations link under the Integrations menu in the left sidebar, and under the Print on Demand tab find and enable Kornit.
Alternatively, search for Kornit from the available integration search.
Enter your Kornit API Key and company ID then click to connect.
Please note that Order Desk isn’t able to help find or reset your credentials, as they can only be provided by Kornit.
Integration Settings
Once connected, you'll have some shipment and integration settings to adjust per your preferences.
Default Mail Class
Choose the mail class you want Kornit to use for your orders.
If you need to apply specific methods for certain orders, match your method names to the names Kornit uses in the Shipping Class Match section below.
After Import, Move To
Select the folder you want orders to be moved into after they are successfully sent to Kornit.
You can use one of the default folders already in your store or create your own. Read the Working with Folders guide for more information.
After Shipment, Move To
Select the folder you want orders to be moved into after Kornit sends shipment details back to Order Desk.
If Canceled, Move To
Select the folder you want orders to be moved into if they are canceled at Kornit.
Include Item Prices in Submission
Enable to send item prices to Kornit when submitting an order.
If enabled, use the order metadata field skip_price_export set to 1 to prevent the item prices from being sent to Kornit on specific orders. Details below.
Product Settings
For more information on what these product settings within the Kornit integration are for, please refer to the Print on Demand Product Settings guide.
Shipping Class Match
If the shipping methods you set up in your shopping cart(s) don't match the shipping method names Kornit uses, they won't know what methods you intend for them to use. When this happens, the default mail class applied above will be used instead for all of your orders.
To tell Kornit what methods you want them to use, you will need to match your method names to theirs. This can be done in the shipping class match section. For detailed instructions on setting this up, please read through the shipping class match guide.
