Setting Up the "Amazon Integration" for the First Time
Last updated: November 12, 2026
Selling on Amazon brings a lot of daily busywork: copying every order into "Edara" by hand, changing quantities on Amazon whenever stock moves, and keeping track of what Amazon ships from its own warehouses. As orders grow, so do the mistakes, and your stock falls behind reality.
With the "Amazon Integration", you connect your seller account to "Edara" once, so Amazon orders come into "Edara" by themselves and your Amazon quantities match your stock, without anything changing until you decide you're ready.
Follow the Steps
You set up the integration in five short steps, then switch orders and stock sync on in Settings once you've checked everything:
Setting Up in "Edara" and Connecting Amazon
- Click "Set up in Edara", then click "Continue".
- Click "Connect Amazon", sign in to Seller Central and approve the app, then click "Continue".
- Check the two suggested warehouses under "Stock in your own warehouse" and "Stock Amazon ships (FBA or SellerFlex)", change either one if it's wrong, then click "Continue".
"Set up in Edara" creates the integration's own "Edara" user, with access only to what it needs: items, stock, warehouses, sales orders and stock adjustments. Your Amazon password is never shared with "Edara".
Note: Approving the app in Seller Central needs the account's primary user, or a user with Manage Your Apps permission. The two warehouses must be different, because FBA stock is checked against Amazon on its own.
Product Matching and Order Defaults
- In "The Edara field to compare with", choose the field where you keep your Amazon SKUs in "Edara": "SKU", "Code" or "Part number".
- If your Amazon SKUs end in extras that aren't in your "Edara" codes, type them in "Endings to remove from Amazon SKUs", then click "Continue".
- Choose the "Customer on Amazon orders" and the "Item for shipping charges".
- Click "Finish setup".
Before you move on, you see how many Amazon products found their "Edara" item, so you know the effect of your choice right away. Once setup is finished, "Home" shows a "Before you turn orders on" list of what's missing, such as the tax on Amazon orders and products that need linking.
Note: Only the customer is needed to finish setup; the shipping charges item can wait.
Turning On Orders and Stock Sync
Nothing is sent to "Edara" or Amazon after setup: orders show as previews and stock sync stays off, until you switch each one on yourself:
- Open "Settings", then "On and off".
- Switch on "Sync Amazon orders to Edara".
- Switch on "Update stock on Amazon for products you ship".
- Click "Save".
From then on, new orders become sales orders in "Edara", and your Amazon quantities follow your shipping warehouse.
Important Things to Know
- Nothing changes on Amazon or in "Edara" when you connect: orders and stock sync both start off.
- Stock for products Amazon ships (FBA) is never updated, because Amazon counts it; you review its differences under "FBA stock".
- You can change the warehouses, the tax and the damaged-returns warehouse later in "Settings".
- When you change any setting, "Not saved yet" shows; click "Save" or "Cancel".
- To stop the integration, click "Disconnect" under "Settings" › "Connections"; your links and order history are kept for 30 days so you can connect again.
