Connecting to Jumpseller

Jumpseller enables authentication to its service via the OAuth protocol.

Using OAuth Authentication

To authenticate to Jumpseller, you will first need to register a Jumpseller OAuth application for your account. To do so, navigate to the Apps section from within the administrative section of your online store, then click 'Developers' > 'Add Application' and fill out the form for your application. Your app will be assigned a Client ID and a Client Secret. After setting the following in the connection string, you are ready to connect:

  • AuthScheme: Set this to OAuth.
  • OAuthClientId: Set this to the Client ID assigned to your application
  • OAuthClientSecret: Set this to the Client Secret assigned to your application
  • InitiateOAuth: Set this to GETANDREFRESH. You can use InitiateOAuth to manage the process to obtain the OAuthAccessToken.
  • CallbackURL: Set this to the Redirect URI that is specified in your app settings
