Uncommon Integration

Setup

To connect to Uncommon, click on Manage Integrations in the left sidebar. Under the Print on Demand tab, find and click to enable the Uncommon integration. 

Alternatively, search for Uncommon from the available integration search.

Choose from a Production (live) or Staging (test) environment. Then collect your Vendor Account ID, API Key, and Vendor Name, Email and Phone and enter them into their respective fields to connect. 

If you don't have your Vendor Name, Email and Phone available immediately, you can add this information later in your Integration Settings. Uncommon does require this information to accept orders.

Please note that Order Desk isn’t able to help find or reset your credentials, as they can only be provided by Uncommon.

Once connected, you will have a few settings where you can set your preferences for this integration.

Select the folder you want orders to be moved into if a job is rejected by Uncommon.

Product Settings

For more information on what the product settings within the Uncommon integration do, please read 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 Uncommon 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 Uncommon 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.

Sending Orders to Uncommon

Getting your orders ready to send to Uncommon will take some set up time. For a detailed walkthrough of how to use Order Desk with your Print on Demand orders, please read through our Print on Demand Fulfillment guide.
