# Print Clever Global Integration

Order Desk can submit your print on demand orders to [Print Clever Global](https://printclever.com/). As orders are fulfilled, the shipment info will automatically be pulled back into Order Desk and sent back to the original shopping cart.

### Setup

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

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

### Integration Settings

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

#### Default Mail Class

Choose the mail class you want Print Clever Global to use for orders.

If you need to apply specific methods for certain orders, match your method names to their names in the [Shipping Class Match section](#shipping-class-match) below.

#### After Import, Move To

Select the folder you want orders to be moved into after they are sent to Print Clever Global.

If you want to use a custom folder, create your own from Store Settings. See the [Working with Folders](/start-here/getting-started-series/quick-start-overview.md#working-with-folders) guide for more information.

#### After Shipment, Move To

Select the folder you want orders to be moved into when Print Clever Global sends shipment details back into Order Desk.

#### Product Settings

![](https://251457507-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FAQOLMUJWMYtrpQ7Oxxca%2Fuploads%2FsQfUEJdj9DnLxOSmV2Aw%2Flegacy-c2d9768b1426fb743055.jpg?alt=media)

For more information on what the product settings within the Print Clever Global integration do, please read the [Print on Demand Product Settings](/guided-walkthroughs/print-on-demand-walkthrough/print-on-demand-integration-product-settings.md) guide.

#### Shipping Class Match

If the shipping methods you set up in your shopping cart(s) don’t match the shipping method names Print Clever Global uses, they won’t know what methods you intend for them to use. When this happens, the [default mail class applied above](#integration-settings) will be used instead for all of your orders.

To tell Print Clever Global 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](/guided-walkthroughs/shipping-fulfillment-and-returns/how-to-set-up-shipping-class-matches.md) guide.

### Sending Orders to Print Clever Global

Preparing Your Items

You can send your items for printing at Print Clever Global in one of two ways:

#### 1. Pre-saved Items

If you’ve already set up your products in Print Clever Global and added designs to them, go to the integration settings page in Order Desk and click **View Available Custom Products**:

![](https://d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/docs/assets/57b0032590336059d4edf94f/images/68d6b8a76d28d776056d6104/file-4SZyGUYzDZ.png)

Find your product on the next page and copy the **Reference URL**:

![](https://d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/docs/assets/57b0032590336059d4edf94f/images/68d6b9697f163d20b310a9ec/file-kf7hFK8tvf.png)

Set that URL as a **VariantID** metadata or variation on your order item in Order Desk. This tells Print Clever Global which item to print and ship.

You can also learn more about this process in [Print Clever Global’s dedicated guide here](https://www.printclever.com/post/order-desk-placing-an-order-for-a-product-already-designed-in-print-clever-os).

#### 2. Non-Pre-saved Items

For items that don’t already exist in Print Clever Global with artwork defined, you can set the following fields as variations or item metadata for each order item.

| Field Name         | Field Description                                                                                |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| print\_sku         | Print Clever Global’s product code/SKU for the item.                                             |
| print\_url\_x      | Link to your artwork file so Print Clever Global can print it. Supports print\_url\_1 through 5. |
| print\_location\_x | Set the location of the print on the product. Supports print\_location\_1 through 5.             |
| print\_preview\_x  | Link to a preview of the artwork. Supports print\_preview\_1 through 5.                          |
| ExternalSku        | Replaces the product item code with an external line item identifier.                            |

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.orderdesk.com/integration-setup-guides/print-on-demand/print-clever-global-integration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
