Installation
Warning: If you have installed a previous version of the plugin in the system, we highly recommend erasing the complete folder of the plugin before moving forward with the new plugin's installation. In many cases, updating the plugin could bring out the same issues as a new installation. This means there are limitations in terms of support and requirements that may need to be sorted by an implementer as mentioned before.
Warning: when installing the plugin, you may be required to have an implementer with knowledge of both Sales Layer and this specific e-commerce channel.
To start the installation, the first step is to download the plugin. Click on the links below, depending on the type of account you have.
In each of them, there is a link called “Download latest plugin version” and other relevant information.
Before starting, the URL extension must have been installed to be able to call and obtain the information from Sales Layer. For more information on this, you can go to PHP: cURL - Manual.
To install the plugin follow these steps:
- Unzip the downloaded module and copy the “Saleslayer” folder into the Magento root folder 'app/code' in your server.
- From the Magento root folder execute the following commands using a console:
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile (if there's an error with 'var/di/' folder just delete it and execute this command again)
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
php bin/magento cache:clean
Once the plugin is installed, in the left menu, below the ‘Customers’ section, our plugin will appear.
Connector creation
Now you will need to create the connector in Sales Layer.
In the channels section of your Sales Layer account, go to the Channel’s marketplace tab and select the Magento connector.
In the Parameters tab, you would need to Assign a new private key as shown in the image below, and click on Continue and then, on Save and Complete.
Keep the ID code and the Channel private keys generated as you will need them to continue with your e-commerce configuration.
