Etsy

Sell your products on your Etsy shop from Kaniva. Connect the shop once, choose the profiles new listings use, and set how Etsy prices and stock follow yours.

Etsy only allows items you make or design yourself. Etsy is switched on per store by Kaniva. If you don't see Etsy under Settings, ask Kaniva support.

Listing products on Etsy from their product page, Etsy orders and stock sync are on the way. This page grows as they arrive.

Connect your Etsy shop

Open Settings → Etsy and work down the page:

1. Connect Etsy: you sign in on Etsy and allow Kaniva to manage your listings, read your orders and add tracking. You come back to the same page when it's done. The Etsy account needs an open shop; if it has none, open it on Etsy first (Etsy asks for billing and payment details), then connect again.
2. Shipping, processing time and returns: choose the shipping profile, processing profile and return policy new listings use. Etsy needs a shipping profile and a processing profile on every listing. These come from your Etsy shop: to add or change one, make it on Etsy with the links on the page, then reload the page.

When a shipping and a processing profile are chosen, step 2 is ticked.

Your own Etsy app (optional)

Kaniva connects through its own Etsy app. To use yours instead, open Use your own Etsy app under step 1: register an app at etsy.com/developers, add the callback URL shown on the page to it, paste its keystring and shared secret, and click Save my app. Etsy then treats Kaniva as your personal tool, with no review by Etsy and your own rate limit. Changing app disconnects your shop until you click Connect Etsy again. Use Kaniva's app instead goes back.

Price and stock on Etsy

On the same page:

• Price on Etsy: your price plus: a percentage added to your Kaniva price, for Etsy's fees (6.5% of each sale plus payment processing, and $0.20 per listing). A listing can use its own percentage or a fixed price instead.
• Keep back from Etsy: Etsy shows your stock less this many, so a sale on Etsy and on your site at the same moment can't oversell.
• Show at most: caps the quantity Etsy shows, whatever you have. Etsy allows up to 999.
• Quantity for items you don't track stock on: what Etsy shows for products without stock tracking.

Click Save.

Nothing that costs money happens in one click

Etsy charges $0.20 to publish a listing. Kaniva always saves a free draft first; publishing is a separate step that shows the fee and asks you to confirm it.

Reconnecting

Kaniva keeps the connection alive by itself. If Etsy ever ends Kaniva's access (for example after you remove Kaniva under your Etsy account's apps), the page shows Reconnect needed and Kaniva emails you. Click Connect Etsy again.

Disconnect stops Kaniva using the shop. Listings already on Etsy stay there; deactivate them in Etsy's Shop Manager if you no longer want them.
