Main features:
- Automatic order export on WooCommerce order events.
- Manual historical order import (up to 3 months / 1200 orders).
- Yearly history import panel when enabled by the Shopstato API.
- Stock export endpoint for scheduled cron jobs.
The plugin adds a Shopstato settings page in WordPress admin where you can configure:

- Shopstato API token
- Cron endpoint for stock processing
External Services
This plugin connects to the Shopstato service and sends store data only after the site owner configures the plugin with a Shopstato API URL and API token.
The service is used to:
- send WooCommerce order data to Shopstato for analytics and reporting
- send WooCommerce product stock data to Shopstato when the configured stock sync endpoint is triggered
- load Shopstato account credentials entered by the store owner and validate the connection
When order synchronization runs, the plugin may send the following data to the configured Shopstato API:
- order identifiers, dates, statuses, totals, shipping and payment labels
- customer IP address
- billing data such as first name, last name, company, street, city, postcode, country, email and phone
- shipping data such as recipient name, company, street, city, postcode and country
- ordered product identifiers, names, quantities and prices
When stock synchronization runs, the plugin may send product identifiers, SKUs and stock quantities.
The plugin does not send data to Shopstato until the site owner explicitly enters API credentials and uses the synchronization features.
