Sending Orders to Air Waves
Overview
Order Desk can import orders from your shopping cart(s), sync in your print details and then automatically send them to Air Waves for fulfillment. When orders are shipped, the tracking details will be sent back to Order Desk and back to your shopping cart.
This guide explains how to set up and use the Air Waves integration.
Setup
To enable the integration, click on Manage Integrations in the left sidebar. Under the Print on Demand tab, find and enable the Air Waves integration.
Alternatively, search for Air Waves from the available integration search.
Enter your Air Waves credentials and 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 Air Waves.
Integration Settings
Once connected, you'll have some shipment and integration settings to adjust per your preferences.
After Import, Move To
Select the folder you want orders to be moved into after they are successfully sent to Air Waves.
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 as Air Waves sends shipment details back.
Shipment Webhook URL
Give this webhook URL to your Air Waves sales rep. This URL is necessary for Air Waves to be able to send shipment notifications back into your orders in Order Desk.
Default Return Address
Set your default return address for Air Waves to use on your order shipments.
If you need to customize the return address for certain orders, you can save different return addresses to your Store Settings and use a rule to set the return address on specific orders. If a return address is not added to the order, the default address set here in the Air Waves settings will be used.
For information on adding additional return addresses and applying them to specific orders with a rule, read the Store Settings guide.
