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.
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.
Additional Functions

Run sync – Manually trigger an incremental synchronization.
Run full sync – Manually trigger a full synchronization.

Clear Cache – Use this option to trigger the first full synchronization during the next synchronization (the extended process). When activated, it also allows you to modify the selected segment in the Options tab.
Changing the segment after initial synchronization may result in data loss in the Baselinker, and it's not recommended.
Delete App – Use this option to uninstall the app and remove all configurations permanently. This action cannot be undone, so proceed with caution.
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.
The App does not support custom parameters created manually within your BaseLinker account.
