Baselinker

Basic connector to connect the Ergonode PIM with Baselinker.

Introduction

The Baselinker App bridges the gap between Ergondoe PIM and Baselinker, enabling seamless data exchange via API. Designed to enhance your workflow, this app simplifies configuration and synchronization.

Please be aware that Baselinker API is limited to x requests per minute (depending on the package), so when you get a synchronization error, please check your API usage before reporting an error to us. To do so, please go to https://panel-d.baselinker.com/other_api_token.php. If this happens please wait till the restrictions are lifted and synchronize the app again.

Baselinker allows for an image to have a maximum size of 2MB, but for them to host a file, it must be sent in binary (base64) format. This conversion adds a significant amount of data to the image (30-40%). So, if you receive an error about file size during synchronization, that is the reason. The safe image size to send should be around 1.3MB.

Key Features

Customizable Application Name: Personalize your app instance by assigning a unique name.
Segment Selection: Choose the relevant segment from the dropdown menu. Refer to the separate Segments page for detailed information on segments.
Configuration Wizard.

If a product with the same SKU exists in Baselinker and Ergonode PIM, it will be matched during the synchronization, and mapped attributes from this product will be updated in Baselinker.

Running the app

Step 1: Configuration Begin by navigating through the Options and Configuration section to tailor the app settings to your needs. Detailed explanations for each option and configuration can be found on linked pages.

Step 2: Running the App Once you’ve set up your preferences, click the Run synchronization button in the top-right corner to initiate synchronization processes.

Step 3: History After initiating a synchronization, the app will log an entry in the History tab.

Known app limitations

Baselinker API limits can cause synchronization errors. If this happens please wait till the restrictions are lifted and synchronize the app again.
There is no way for now to limit the categories that are sent to Baselinker (all categories from the Ergonode PIM are sent).
In select and multiselect attribute types, the options translations must be all lowercase letters.
As SKU is a main identifier in Ergonode PIM, its value will not be sent to the mapped attribute in the Baselinker (it will always be sent as SKU).
Unit type attributes can only be mapped with attributes of the same type on the Baselinker side (weight, height, width, length) and only if the attribute units in Ergonode correspond to those in Baselinker.
Maximum image size: The correct limit for image size in Baselinker is 2MB.

Since this is a basic connector it may not cover all needs. In case that happens, we could connect you with one of our partners for more custom solutions.
