Colorway on Demand Integration
Order Desk can import orders from your shopping cart(s), sync in your print details and then automatically send them on to Colorway on Demand for fulfillment. When orders are shipped, the tracking details will be sent back to Order Desk and back to your shopping cart if your store is set up for it.
Setup
To enable the integration, click on Manage Integrations in the left sidebar. Under the Print on Demand tab, find and enable the Colorway on Demand integration.
Alternatively, search for Colorway on Demand from the available integration search.
Enter the API Key supplied to you by Colorway on Demand 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 Colorway on Demand.

Shipping Class Match
If the shipping methods you set up in your shopping cart(s) don’t match the shipping method names Tribe Socks 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 Tribe Socks 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.
