# Spreadconnect Integration

Order Desk can import orders from your shopping cart(s) and automatically send them on to [Spreadconnect](https://www.spreadshop.com/spreadconnect/) for fulfillment. When orders are shipped, the tracking details will be sent back to Order Desk automatically.

### Setup

To connect to Spreadconnect, click on the **Manage Integrations** link under the **Integrations** menu in the left sidebar, and under the **Print on Demand** tab find and enable Spreadconnect

Click *View Available Products* to see a list of your current Spreadconnect products and their details.

#### Default Mail Class

Choose the mail class you want Spreadconnect 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 successfully sent to Spreadconnect.

You can use one of the default folders already in your store or create your own. Read 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 after Spreadconnect 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 Spreadconnect.

#### Automatically Send Imported Orders to Spreadconnect

If you want to send all orders to Spreadconnect, select this option.

If you would prefer to only send certain orders to Spreadconnect, keep this option disabled. Instead, use the [Rule Builder](/guided-walkthroughs/rules-and-automations/how-to-work-with-rules.md) to tell Order Desk which orders to send.

#### Send Customer Email Address to Spreadconnect

Select if you want the customer email address sent to Spreadconnect with each order.

#### Product Settings

For more information on what these product settings within the Spreadconnect integration are for, please refer to 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 Spreadconnect 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 Spreadconnect 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.

## 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/spreadconnect-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.
