Miinto & Lightspeed connector

Export products from Lightspeed store to Miinto and send order back from Miinto to Lightspeed Retail. The connector contains two parts. Stock level sync tool – it exports data from Lightspeed Retail Store. And the order sync tool transfers each Miinto’s order into Lightspeed Retail’s Sale

How to set up and use the connector developed by eSyncer

1. Set up the connector

eSyncer team provides the stock level sync file = TSV fileavailable on an URL. It exports data from Lightspeed Retail Store. The Miinto team uses this URL to update the stock values for Miinto.

This part runs on background and it is set completely by eSyncer team. Order sync transfers each Miinto’s order into Lightspeed Retail’s Sale if the order contains Lightspeeds’ products.

It’s recommended to create Lightspeed register called “Miinto” and employee called “Miinto” to separate the orders. If the “Miinto” register exists the connector works with that by default.

2. Product synchronization

Synced fields (TSV file export):

Lightspeed fields Miinto fields
SystemSku & CustomSku id
