Marketplace import: Amazon and AliExpress
With the Companion you bring products and orders from Amazon and AliExpress straight into aYOUne, without retyping.
Importing products
On an Amazon product page (amazon.de, .com, .co.uk, .fr, .it, .es) or an AliExpress product page, an In aYOUne importieren (import into aYOUne) button appears. Alternatively click Import product in the popup.
The Companion
- looks for an existing product in aYOUne (by identifiers such as ASIN, AliExpress item number, EAN or manufacturer part number) and updates it, or creates a new product with the next free article number;
- takes over the product image;
- finds the seller as a supplier or creates one;
- records the price in a supplier agreement. If one already exists, a new entry is added to its price history.
You see the result right away — new product created or product updated — with links to the product and the supplier in aYOUne. If no price can be found on AliExpress, the import finishes without a price.
Importing orders
Amazon: open your order history or a single order. A bar at the top offers Bestellungen importieren or Diese Bestellung importieren (import orders / this order). The orders visible on the current page are imported; for older orders change the filter or page and click again. Afterwards you see how many orders are new and how many were updated; sellers and products are completed in the background.
AliExpress: on the order list click Bestellungen importieren (import orders). The Companion loads the complete list and briefly opens the orders in a background tab to read the details. You follow the progress in the action bar and in the popup, where you can also cancel the import. If some orders are still missing details afterwards, Unvollständige nachladen (reload incomplete) reads exactly those orders again.
Completing product details
Importing Amazon orders creates products for which only a few details are known at first. When there are such products, the popup shows a Product backfill section with a Fill in now button. The Companion then opens the Amazon product pages one after another in the background and only fills in missing details, such as the product picture – up to 25 products per run, with about 20 seconds between two products. Existing details are not overwritten.
Requirements
You are signed in to the Companion and logged in to Amazon or AliExpress with your own account. The Companion reads the pages you see; it does not use a seller interface.
The buttons and messages on Amazon and AliExpress pages are currently shown in German.
