How to integrate SPIRAL with WooCommerce to automatically add products to WooCommerce when product information is registered in SPIRAL

m.wadazumi

In managing an e-commerce site, accurately registering product information is extremely important.
However, manual registration is time-consuming and increases the risk of human error.
By integrating SPIRAL with WooCommerce, you can solve this problem by automatically registering product information.
This ensures consistency of product information across different tools, allowing customers and employees to access accurate data.
Additionally, the workload is reduced, allowing staff to focus on other important tasks.
This time, we will introduce in detail how to integrate SPIRAL with WooCommerce and set up automation.

Benefits of Integrating SPIRAL with WooCommerce

Benefit 1: Improved Data Consistency

Manually synchronizing SPIRAL and WooCommerce can easily lead to data discrepancies and input errors.
By automatically registering product information in WooCommerce when it is registered in SPIRAL, you can solve this problem.
With automated data management, product data is always registered accurately.
This reduces the risk of providing incorrect information, allowing both customers and employees to access correct data.
Especially for operators using multiple tools, this automation will be key to improving reliability.

Benefit 2: Reduced Workload

Utilizing automatic product registration can reduce the workload and working hours of employees.
This reduces the cost associated with registration tasks, allowing employees to focus on inventory management and customer service.
Especially since registering product information requires multiple data entries, this automation is effective for improving work efficiency.
You may feel the effects more when handling a large number of products or when the update frequency is high.

Completing the My App registration first makes the automation setup easy.

First, register SPIRAL as My App.
Click "My Apps" → "New Connection" on the left side of the Yoom screen.
Search for SPIRAL from "Search by App Name" or find it from the app list.

Step 2: Set a trigger to activate when a record is created in SPIRAL

To set up automation, click "Try it" on the banner below.

Read the following screen display and click "OK".

The following screen will be displayed, so check the "Title" and "Description".
If changes are necessary, you can make them from the page below.
Since it is done from the SPIRAL settings, click "When a record is created".

When the following screen is displayed, please check the settings.

  • "Title" → Can be changed as needed
  • "Account information linked with SPIRAL (ver.2)" → Check if the account is correct

    * Please note that the trigger interval varies depending on the plan
  • "App ID", "Database ID" → Select from the options

After setting, click "Test" and "Test Successful" will be displayed.
Scroll down to check the response results of the registered product information.
Based on this response result, create the SPIRAL output.
