Cin7 Omni - Configure for Automated Fulfillment

Neil G · Updated

DropStream connects your Cin7 Omni account to a warehouse management system so orders flow automatically from sale to shipment, and stock levels stay in sync without manual intervention.

What this integration does

  • Imports orders from Cin7 Omni into DropStream once they reach the stage you choose to monitor (default Dispatched).
  • Forwards orders to your warehouse management system, with line items mapped by SKU.
  • Posts fulfillment status back to Cin7 Omni when the warehouse ships, including tracking numbers and carrier information.
  • Pushes inventory updates from the warehouse to Cin7 Omni.

What you’ll need

  • A Cin7 Omni account you can sign in to.
  • Your Cin7 Omni API Username and API Password (API Key).
  • A DropStream account. If you don’t have one yet, contact your DropStream administrator or fulfillment provider.

Setup at a glance

The setup involves work on two sides — Cin7 Omni, then DropStream — and the recommended order is:

  1. Get your API credentials (in Cin7 Omni) — create an API Connection, note the API Username and API Key, and grant the required permissions.
  2. Enable API access (in DropStream) — add the store through the Add Connection wizard and enter your Cin7 Omni credentials.

Who does what

  • If you manage your own DropStream account, you’ll do both steps yourself.
  • If a third-party fulfillment provider is configuring DropStream for you, you only need Get your API credentials. Send the resulting credentials to your provider; they handle the rest.

Notes and limitations

  • The API Connection must grant read access to Contacts, Branches, Product Categories, Products, Product Options, Stock, Serial Numbers, Quotes, and BOM Masters, plus read + update on Sales Orders.
